Returns Helpdesk Article
At TUNL, we understand that returns can be a complex part of international shipping. Below is a guide to help you navigate the process smoothly.
Who Covers Return Costs?
Merchants are responsible for all return fees, including:
- Return transportation fees
- Any applicable DDP charges
- Additional fees incurred during the return process such as handling surcharges.
Exceptions:
If the carrier returns a package without informing TUNL, the merchant will not be responsible for the return costs. This only happens when:
- The package was shipped to a country that only allows returns and does not offer the option to abandon or destroy the package.
- This policy varies by country, so it’s essential to check destination-specific regulations before shipping.
Minimising Return Costs
To reduce potential return fees and delays:
- Ensure that your client's details (address, phone number, and email) are accurate and up to date.
- Monitor tracking updates and take proactive action if there are delivery issues.
- If you anticipate a return, contact TUNL support as soon as possible to explore options.
