This information is only relevant for deliveries made outside Australia,.
Please note that for all international orders (orders delivered outside Australia, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied by the recipient country's government once the product reaches your country.
There should be no customs duties for products imported to the United States due to the Australian/US Free Trade Agreement (FTA) that came into effect on January 1, 2005.
For all international orders except for the United States, all additional charges for customs clearance, import duties and taxes are payable by you. Such charges are not included in the delivery fee or purchase price of our products. We have no control over those charges and cannot determine what they may be.
Customs duties are not always applied. Each country has its own rules for determining whether customs duties will apply.

Based on your country's customs rules, it is possible that your parcel will fall below that threshold level. |
