Orders from European customers
 
Will there be additional Duties and Taxes to pay for European customers?
  • Goods leaving the UK for the EU will be charged Import Duty & tax at EU-set rates.
  • The recipient will be liable for these.
International Postings  -  since the end of the Brexit transition period, we are required to complete a customs declaration for all orders despatched from the UK. We have no knowledge of the exact details but we anticipate that European customers may have additional charges in their own countries. Please note that any duties, taxes and admin charges incurred on European parcels are the responsibility of the recipient. These charges are being raised in the country where the parcel is being delivered.
 
Please note, a customer is entitled to refuse to pay the custom charges. In this event the parcel will be returned to Kaleidoscope. We would refund the cost of the order less the courier charges for the parcel to be despatched to the recipitent and the courier charges from the destination country back to our premises in the United Kingdom. These courier charges will be requested from the shipper prior to ourselves requesting the return.

***Returned parcels due to refusal of customs duties or incorrect address will be charged a return fee which will equate to our actual cost of shipping.***
