Worldwide express shipping

Australian orders will be delivered via CouriersPlease while international orders will be delivered either by DHL Express or FedEx International Priority.

In such case, we will contact you to discuss whether you prefer shipping to an alternate address or a refund. We are also unable to ship to P.O. boxes or APO/FPO address.

Neither of the courier companies that we use (DHL, FedEx and CouriersPlease) guarantees any delivery date, so don’t we. Please make your purchase well in time, especially when you need AirBuddy for your upcoming vacation, plan to move house, sail away, etc. Below table shows typical shipping times based on our historical data of AirBuddy shipments – from pick-up at our factory until delivery to the receiver (incl. customs clearance where required). On rare occasions, delays beyond these timeframes may occur. Once a shipment has been picked up by the courier, it’s no longer in our control and it can’t be called off under any circumstances.

Individual imports of goods under $2500, so called “informal entry” shall not attract any tax or duty as for example explained in:

Orders shipped to customers outside Australia, GST will not apply. The shipment may, however, be subject to import duties, customs fees and taxes at the destination, depending on the laws of the country concerned.

Please make sure that you are available on the phone number and email provided with your shipping details. DHL or FedEx (or their partners) will typically assist to process the customs clearance for you. They will need to contact you if they require any information for the customs clearance and to organise your payment of the tax and duty.
