CUSTOM DUTIES & IMPORT FEES
- When products are imported into the U.S., they are subject to customs clearance, which may include duties and additional import fees. A customs broker typically contacts the recipient directly to facilitate payment, allowing the shipment to be released and continue to its final destination. This standard process applies to all products manufactured outside of the U.S.
- Please be aware that customs duties, local taxes, and additional fees may apply based on your country's regulations. These charges are the responsibility of the buyer, as Gaia’s Roots LLC has no control over them. For questions regarding potential fees, we are happy to consult with our customs agent for clarity.
- Option 1: Direct Payment
Your customs broker will contact the recipient directly with a payment link for all customs duties and taxes. Once paid, the items will be released and shipped to their final destination.
- Option 2: Handled by Gaia’s Roots (U.S. Customs Only)
We can manage the U.S. customs process for you, acting as your primary point of contact. We'll provide an estimated landing cost and collect these estimated duties at the time of purchase to ensure a seamless clearance process and prevent delivery delays. Please note that if tariffs increase due to external market fluctuations, the recipient will be responsible for any additional fees required for customs clearance.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS (OUTSIDE OF U.S.)
- We ship our products internationally, however, the buyer is responsible for all customs duties, local taxes, and additional fees associated with their country's importation protocols. We do not manage customs clearance processes outside of the U.S.
