SHIPPING

HOW DOES SHIPPING WORK?

We ship on business days from Monday-Friday. We do not ship on weekends and public holidays. Orders received over the weekend or on a holiday will be processed the following business day. If there is an increased order volume due to promotional days, processing after a weekend or holiday may take up to 3 business days.

ARMY FIELD MAIL
Deliveries to Bundeswehr units deployed abroad are VAT-exempt in accordance with Section 6 (2) of the German Value-Added Tax Act and Section 6 (3) of the Value-Added Tax Guidelines. Please select “Bundeswehr Feldpost” in the Country field for sales tax exemption at checkout.

DELIVERIES TO NON-EU COUNTRIES
We ship orders to countries outside the EU free of VAT. The tax is then due upon importation in the respective country. Furthermore, customs and import fees may apply, we do not cover the fees for customs clearance.

Given delivery times refer to the time until the shipment arrives in the destination country. The duration of customs clearance is not included in this period and may take some time depending on the destination country. Neither our shipping service providers nor we can influence how long your shipment will be in customs. Under certain circumstances, it can take up to several weeks until the package finally arrives at your home.

SIGNATURE RELEASE AUTHORISATION WITH DHL
By issuing a drop-off permit, you as the recipient assume liability for the package.

So, if you have chosen a permanent or one-time drop-off location/neighbor for dropping off your packages, unfortunately, we and the parcel service will not be able to continue to be responsible for them in the event of loss or damage.

Therefore, please make sure that your package will be safely and weatherproof at the drop-off location and/or your chosen neighbor will be at home so that our products reach you safely and in good condition.
