Included in our Freight:

 

TickCustoms form completion – this is mandatory for all parcels going internationally. We are experienced at correctly completing customs forms to ensure your parcel gets through as smoothly as possible

TickAssistance clearing customs – On average, 5% of all parcels get checked by Customs and take longer to be delivered. We cannot be held responsible for this.  When this happens, we work with customs via DHL Express to ensure local govt officials have the information required to clear your gift as swiftly as possible 

TickTaxes and duties payable in your destination country – When you send food and gifts overseas by courier, there is always an administration charge and usually taxes and duties are payable. We cover these charges as part of our freight cost so you never have to worry about the person you are sending the gift to being stung with additional costs

TickConfirmation of delivery 

 

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY GIFT GETS STUCK IN CUSTOMS?

Approximately 5% of gifts sent receive a random fuller check by customs in the country they are being sent to.

This  is a completely normal process.

When this happens, customs may request more information on the shipment contents; and/or contact the person receiving the gift to ensure it’s going to a legitimate person and address; and/or hold the item for a standard period (usually approx. 5-7 working days).

When this happens, we open a case with DHL Express to ensure we receive regular updates on progress which we share with you.

CAN YOU DO A BESPOKE HAMPER ESPECIALLY FOR ME?

If you are placing a order over $1,000 for 1 hamper type to multiple VIPs, please contact us at hello@istillcallaustraliahome and we’d be delighted to help you with gifts for your special occasion.

For orders under that, unfortunately we are primarily a online-only store; and not staffed up to manage bespoke individual orders.  In this case, we invite you to make your own hamper online by choosing your hamper box and adding anything available on the site. We’ll then pull together your special bespoke choices in the one hamper box and send for you as instructed.
