These charges are determined by the customs authorities of the destination country and can vary widely from one country to another. This does NOT include EU orders with a value below €150 before tax.
Please note: Capala Swim does not cover the cost of customs, duties, or import taxes. These fees are the responsibility of the customer.

- Customs Clearance: Customs procedures and fees can vary greatly depending on the destination country. Delays in customs clearance are not within our control and can impact delivery times. We recommend contacting your local customs office for more detailed information.
- Payment of Duties and Taxes: All applicable customs fees, taxes, and duties are the sole responsibility of the customer. These charges are not included in the price of the product or the shipping costs. The shipping carrier will typically collect these fees at the time of delivery.
