For countries outside the european union, you can find shipping cost estimates by choosing first your country then zip code on the check out page. The shipping charges won't appear on your total until the final stage of payment.

NON EU SHIPPING TIME: Please note that we have no control over the shipment once it reaches the destination country outside the european union, how long it is held at customs and how quickly it is delivered by the forwarding company. In our experience, it takes about 7-10 working days to reach the destination country. After this, it is given a grace period of 20 days before we can file a missing package inquiry. No, we have never lost a package but it has taken up to 30 days to be delivered in some cases, specifically in the U.S.A.

DHL EXPRESS SHIPPING TIME: DHL EXPRESS does overnight delivery to countries within the european union and to New York City, U.S.A. and up to 4 working days in other countries and regions. However they will have no influence on how quickly the packages are processed by Customs.

VAT Refunds: for all non-EU orders, effective 25 April 2016 we will be deducting the VAT from the paypal payments, after you have authorized the full amount including VAT. This means we will be accepting the amounts you have authorized minus the 19%. The difference will remain on your Paypal account untouched. Please contact us if you have any questions regarding this matter.
