ATLAS PACKS SHIPPING FULL FAQ

Shipping Details and Info

Please see this section for all shipping related FAQ. If the answer is not here, tap chat and let me know how I can help.

What if I ship to a USA address, is there still sales tax?

Only if you ship to Arizona or pickup from our shop. If you visit or live in the United States, sales tax is based on your shipping address. When applicable, the sales tax amount is included in the total paid to Atlas Packs. Atlas Packs then pays this amount to the local tax authorities.

How does the collection of VAT & DUTY work?

Your local FedEx will contact you regarding how to pay. They will 
invoice you either before or after delivery. To be clear... You are 
agreeing to accept delivery of your pack and pay FedEx for the DUTY and VAT.

Why does Atlas Packs not collect these fee at time of purchase?

There is no way for Atlas Packs to collect these funds. International customers are responsible for the payment of any and all fees, tax, VAT and Import Duty charges. Unlike USA customers, none of these fees are included in the totals you pay to Atlas Packs.

What happens if I do not pay the VAT / DUTY??

It is your responsibility to pay your own taxes. Do not refuse shipment because you do not want to pay the VAT. Atlas Packs does not accept returns if the taxes have not been paid. 

If you refuse shipment then FedEx adds penalty fees and very high return shipping costs. As an example: If you live in the EU / UK and do not accept delivery, FedEx will charge more than $350 to return the shipment and these costs are your responsibility. 

These extra fees are easily avoidable. Simply accept delivery and contact Pro Support that you want to make a return. This makes the return process much easier for everyone. 

Abandoned / refused shipments are subject to a 15% restocking fee plus the cost of all shipping charges (outbound and return).

Does Atlas collect VAT and/or DUTY? 

No. These charges are your responsibility. You will be notified via FedEx regarding customer clearance and the payment of fees. The price of the pack does not include any SALES TAXES, VAT or IMPORT DUTY charges. All of these fees are billed by FedEx when they deliver your pack.

You are responsible for paying your own SALES TAX, VAT and IMPORT DUTY based on the laws of your country and government. As part of the process FedEx will bill you on behalf of your government. 

Are there other fees for delivery or customs?

**Please know FedEx may charge an additional $15-20 fee for electronic 
customs clearance. This fee helps gets your pack to you much sooner but does increase the cost. This is not something we can change.

Does Atlas Packs offer any type of refunds to help with DUTY?

It depends. Some countries have very high import duty rates. We will offer to refund up to 5% of your purchase price if your duty charges are more than 5% for orders that do not include free or promotional shipping costs. Please check with Pro Support for details before you order for confirmation.

How much will my DUTY and VAT be?

The backpacks are imported under HS TARRIF CODE: 42029291 and each country charges fees such as VAT/GST and import duty fees.
