Do I have to pay International taxes and Duties?
Please note Shimmi cannot take responsibility for delays due to customer clearance as this beyond our control. Orders do not include possible taxes and duties which may be applied by customs authorities on delivery into your country. Import Duties and Taxes are the responsibility of the customer. If you fail to comply with customs and consequently the parcel is returned to Shimmi you will be liable for additional fees charged for return and re-delivery.
For more information on what duties and taxes may be payable to you prior to the delivery of your parcel, we strongly recommend checking your local customs website or contacting them directly prior to placing an order.

You can enter your preferred shipping address at the checkout stage by selecting the ‘Delivery address is different from billing address’ option.
Where do you deliver to?
Orders are shipped worldwide. Simply choose country at checkout.
Do I need to sign on delivery?
Yes, all deliveries require a signature upon receipt. If no one is available to sign for the parcel, the courier/delivery company will advise you to contact them to arrange a suitable time for re-delivery or collection of the order.
