1. A 30% deposit is required with your confirmed order.  
2. A pre –shipment Pro forma is then sent for your reconfirmation before shipment takes place.  
3. A ‘Contents as Packed’ Invoice is emailed immediately after shipment. Full payment of the balance is now due .

4. Shipping documents required to release the container at destination are couriered promptly after sighting of payment . 

5. All invoices quote FOB prices and are in USD currency. Documentation fees are included in FOB price.

### How long does it take to Ship My Order?

We have many items that are ready to ship. If your order contains all Ready to Ship items and payment has been made your order would arrive in the US in approximately 6 weeks.

If you have items that need to be hand crafted the production time could be 3 months. Plus, shipping time of 1.5 months.
