Customs Inspections: The Uncontrollable Delay
International shipping involves crossing borders, and Customs Inspections are a reality of global trade.
1. Random Inspections Customs authorities (CBP in US, Customs in EU) randomly select shipments for X-Ray or physical examination.
- Probability: About 3-5% of shipments are selected.
- Delay: An inspection can hold a package for 1 week to 30+ days.
2. Our Policy
- Force Majeure: Customs delays are 100% outside of our control. Neither Aurora Global Brands nor the shipping carrier (DHL/FedEx) can speed up the government process.
- No Refunds: We cannot issue refunds or cancel orders because goods are stuck in customs inspection. We must wait for them to be released.
