Customs & Duties:
International shipments may sometimes attract import VAT (value‑added tax) or handling fees, depending on the destination country. These charges are determined by local customs authorities and, if applied, are the responsibility of the recipient. We include this information so you are aware before ordering and there are no unexpected costs.
Books are generally duty‑free under international tariff classifications (HS code 4901). However, some countries — particularly within the European Union, such as Portugal, France, Austria, and Sweden — often apply VAT to imports from outside the EU. If you are unsure about local requirements, we recommend checking with your customs office before placing an order.
United States customers: Printed books are classified under Harmonized Tariff Schedule code 4901.99, which is generally duty‑free. Based on this classification, additional tariffs are not typically applied to book orders. Please note that final customs decisions rest with US authorities.
Replacements
If your book arrives with a printing defect, we’ll replace it in line with Australian consumer law.
