International Deliveries:
We ship worldwide - please see available delivery options when you checkout. We are not currently able to ship framed prints outside the UK, so please do order your print unframed - thank you. With regard to sending items overseas from the UK:
- Duty Payments and Customs
- Import duties and taxes may be charged on orders shipping from outside the EU. These are set by the Customs Authority of the destination country.
- Whoever your order is addressed to is responsible for all customs costs associated with the import of the products, and will be required to pay any additional charges for international delivery. These could include import duty, formal customs entry, taxes, levies and other charges. If you’re ordering products to be delivered to someone else, make sure that they’re aware that they’ll need to cover this before you order.
- Unfortunately, we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be, so we would advise that you check the import charges applicable in any country if necessary.
Please do contact us if you have any questions about delivery options.
