International Shipping Information:

Shipping to EU Member States - IOSS (Import One-Stop Shop) B2C (Business 2 Consumer Only)
We use IOSS (Import One-Stop Shop) for shipping parcels to customers in the EU member states. This applies to B2C only (Business 2 Consumer)
We display the Tax and relevant duties at the time of shopping on our website and the price you pay includes tax and duties. There will be nothing else to pay once your order arrives in your country. Business customers based in the EU members states will be shipped using DDU (Delivery Duties Unpaid) and will be responsible for paying their own taxes/duties once their parcel arrives in their country.

What does this mean for you?
Benefits of IOSS
* Transparent Tax and Duty rates displayed during checkout
* No customs clearance = faster transit times
* No other fees to pay once your order reaches your country and will proceed to delivery
* No admin/handling charges to pay
* A more pleasant shopping experience

B2B Customers
*Please Note:
The IOSS service is ONLY applicable to B2C (Business 2 Consumer Customers)
For business customers in the EU that would like to order, there are 2 options available:
Option 1 - Choose a courier shipping option (DHL)
The price displayed during checkout will include all relevant duties and taxes and terms of shipping would be DDP (Delivery Duties Paid). There would be no other fees to pay to receive your order.

Option 2 - You can choose Royal Mail ONLY if your shipping address entered is a residential address. If the value of your order does NOT exceed €150, the terms of trade will be DDP via the IOSS system. If the order value DOES exceed €150, the terms of trade will be DDP only and IOSS would not be applicable.

Customers - Rest of the World
Our terms of trade are DDU (Delivery Duties Unpaid)
If you are based outside of the EU member states (Rest of the World) there is no VAT (Value Added Tax/Sales Tax) to pay but you will be responsible for paying any relevant import duties/admin fees for your parcel when it arrives in your country. Your local customs authority should contact you when they have cleared your parcel through customs in your country and will let you know the amount to pay. The customer is responsible for paying any relevant fees to accept their parcel, as we do not charge any of these fees at the time of order.

 

Customs Charges/Delays
For countries outside the EU Member States and Rest of the World
Goods ordered from outside the UK may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the goods reach the country of destination. Any such charges levied in relation to customs clearance will be payable by you, as our terms of trade are DDU (Delivery Duties Unpaid) for countries outside the EU Member states and Rest of the World countries as mentioned above. We recommend that you check with your local customs officials or post office for more information regarding importation taxes/duties that will be applicable to your online order. You will be the importer of record and responsible for any import VAT and duties that are chargeable for receiving your order. In addition, any charges for import clearance/admin fees will be payable by you, the customer. We can not advise on how much you can expect to pay for import duties. It is accepted by you that Arcade World UK has no control over additional charges in relation to customs clearance.

Marking Goods As Gift Or Declaring Low Value
We cannot mark items as a gift or declare a lower value. All parcels shipped outside of the UK require either accompanying digital customs data OR a commercial invoice attached to the outside of the box declaring the correct goods description and value. This is required by law and we will not mark items as a gift or declare a lower value, so please do not ask us to do this.

Please Note:
Whilst we always try to ship orders in a timely manner, Arcade World UK can NOT be held responsible for delivery times and postal/courier services.
