LOGISTICS & SHIPPING POLICY

Official Policy Document  |  Version 1.0  |  May 2026

 

1.  Overview & Purpose

This Logistics & Shipping Policy outlines the standards, procedures, and commitments that govern how we process, fulfill, and deliver orders to our customers. Our goal is to ensure a seamless, transparent, and reliable delivery experience for every purchase.

 

This policy applies to all orders placed through our official sales channels, including our website, authorized distributors, and partner platforms. By placing an order with us, customers agree to the terms set out in this document.

 

2.  Order Processing

2.1  Processing Timeline

All orders are processed on business days (Monday through Friday, excluding public holidays). The standard order processing timeline is as follows:

 

Standard orders: processed within 1–2 business days of payment confirmation.
Custom or bulk orders: processing time may extend to 3–5 business days; customers will be notified via email.
Orders placed after 3:00 PM (local warehouse time) are treated as received the following business day.

 

ℹ  Orders placed during promotional periods or major shopping events may experience processing delays of up to 3 additional business days.

 

2.2  Order Verification

To protect against fraud and ensure accuracy, all orders are subject to a verification process. We reserve the right to contact customers to verify order details before dispatch. Orders that cannot be verified within 48 hours may be cancelled and refunded in full.

 

3.  Shipping Methods & Delivery Timeframes

We offer multiple shipping options to meet different customer needs. Estimated delivery times begin from the date of dispatch, not the date of order placement.

In such events, we will communicate updated timelines as soon as reasonably possible.

 

8.2  Address Accuracy

Customers are responsible for providing complete and accurate shipping addresses at checkout. We are not responsible for orders delivered to an incorrect address provided by the customer. Address changes after order confirmation may not always be accommodable; please contact us immediately if a correction is needed.

If a delivery attempt fails due to the recipient being unavailable, the carrier will leave a notification and make up to two additional attempts.
