Flight or transportation disruptions

Carrier congestion

Free Standard Shipping
Regular products qualify for free standard shipping to most supported destinations.
No minimum order value is required unless otherwise stated on the product page, during checkout, or as part of a specific promotion.
In certain destinations where carrier costs are significantly higher, a separate shipping charge may apply.
If a shipping fee applies, the exact amount will be shown at checkout before payment.
Promotional & Free Products
Promotional products, complimentary items, free gifts, and selected free-product offers may use separate shipping rates.
These products are not necessarily covered by the regular-product free standard shipping policy.
If a shipping charge applies to a free or promotional item, the exact amount will be clearly displayed at checkout before payment.
Shipping charges for promotional or free products may vary based on:
-
Destination
-
Quantity
-
Parcel weight
-
Shipping route

Carrier costs
Order Tracking
Tracking information will be provided when available after your order has been dispatched.
Please allow some time for tracking information to become active after the parcel has been handed to the carrier.
In some cases, tracking updates may not appear immediately while the parcel is moving between international logistics partners.
Customs, Duties & Import Taxes
Depending on the destination country, customs duties, import taxes, VAT, handling fees, or other local charges may apply.
Unless otherwise stated during checkout, any such charges are the responsibility of the customer.
Customs regulations vary by country, and Buddhist Temple Shop does not control charges imposed by local customs authorities.
Delivery to Remote Areas
Remote islands, rural areas, military addresses, overseas territories, and other difficult-to-reach locations may require additional delivery time.
In some cases, additional shipping costs may also apply.
Any applicable shipping charge will be displayed during checkout before payment whenever possible.

We will help review the available shipping information and assist with the next steps.
