We cover these new fees. 

In other words, you will never be surprised by additional customs duties and taxes at the time of delivery, guaranteed! If for some unexpected glitch, you do get charged a fee upon delivery, email us a copy of your bill and we will reimburse you. 

Shipping options and estimated delivery times will appear in the shopping cart and checkout page. If you are not home at the time of delivery, FedEx or UPS will leave a door tag with indications if another delivery attempt will be made or information on the time and address of the closest FedEx location where you may pick up your shipment.

Due to latest US customs duties changes, we can no longer offer APO and FPO services due to the US freight forwarder companies we have access to.
