A. The average delivery times shown on the Shipping/ Delivery page are based on the data and statistics provided by Indonesian Post and refer to the countries to which mail is more commonly sent. Unfortunately, we do not have accurate data accounting for the postal systems within each country. As concerns the Russian Federation, for example, most parcels reach their destination after two weeks. In some cases, however, we have experienced delays exceeding 40 days.

Q. What happens if I am not at home when the parcel arrives?
A. There are two possibilities:

  • Insured Registered mail. In this case, the parcel can only be delivered to the addressee or to another person (e.g. a member of the family, a colleague, a porter, etc.) who will sign a receipt. If no-one is home, the postman will leave a note. The parcel can be collected from your local post office with no additional charge. Please note that this standard procedure may be slightly different in your country.

Q. What does "Each carton separate delivery" mean? (*)
A. Example: if you order five cartons of cigarettes at once you will receive five separate parcels. Each parcel will be shipped one parcel at a time, and we will sent it within 5 day (for five carton) or 3 day (for 3 carton).
(*) This is valid for regular shipping only!

A. Because it would be subject to duty since the weight and value would not fall within the prescribed international parameters.

A. Your order will be sent on 1 (one) parcel at a time.

A. You will be subject to taxation (this may vary from country to country).
