International Shipping and Refunds

Our company is not a part of any contract of carriage with a carrier for the transportation of a product, and our company assumes no responsibility for losses suffered by a Member in connection with non-delivery, delay, damage, etc. that result from an accident during transport.

Any fees, duties and taxes that may arise before and after the shipment are the responsibility of the Member.
The Member gives all authority to Neokyo to conclude a contract of carriage on behalf of said Member. None of the estimates of the delivery time of the package appearing on the site are binding for Neokyo, and the exceeding of these deadlines by the company providing the transport does not, under any circumstances, open the possibility of a partial or total refund of the expenses settled before the expedition.

Neokyo must complete the delivery process of the product under the responsibility of the Member and in accordance with the instructions of the Member.
Therefore, Neokyo cannot be held responsible for information relating to the export and import of products, such as the name of the product, the price of the product and the quantity of the product on the invoice, or for the amount of tariffs incurred on the basis of this information, or measures such as import bans, etc. imposed by the country of destination. The Member must be required to pay all customs duties incurred in the importation of the products and taxes collected by the country of destination.
