FedEx Shipping Rate and Delivery Time
We are sending most of small to large square shape boxes by FedEx
FedEx has "Out of delivery area" which they are unable to send at the rate we quotes on the website. In case your delivery address is "out-of-delivery area", FedEx extra handling fee will be required so we will contact you upon receipt of your order.
These "Out-of-delivery-Areas" are mostly found in the suburbs of Canada, Australia, Malaysia, etc
USA, and European countries does NOT have "out of delivery area" so please do not worry about it.
Delivery usually takes 3 to 5 days for most countries, but FedEx does not guarantee you the transit time of your order since there might be delays due to the Covid circumstances. If you do not receive the order after 7 days from the ship date, please let us know immediately.
EMS Shipping Rate and Delivery Time
We ask you only for exact shipping cost on your order.
Delivery usually takes 4 to 7 days for most countries, but EMS can't guarantee you the transit time of your order since there might be delays due to your country’s customs inspection. If you do not receive the order after 14 days from the ship date, please let us know immediately. Your parcel may be opened at the customs for tax examinations and most of the customs offices are closed on the weekends. These could influence the speed of delivery. Thank you for your understanding.
