Worldwide Shipping, Two Simple Options
Clear, honest shipping terms. Every order gets two options — economy (slower, cheaper) and DHL Express (faster, premium). Free economy shipping on orders over $70. Tracking on every shipment, delivery to 50+ countries.
Two Carriers, One Clear Choice

From Order to Shipping — 4 Stages
Production time is separate from shipping time. The four stages below run before your order enters the carrier network. Add-on processes (foil, embossing) extend Stage 3.

Artwork & Proof

Standard CMYK: 2-4 Business Days. Add-on processes extend this (see below).
QC & Ship
AQL sampling, photo approval, packing, ship. Tracking within 24 hours.
Import Duties, Taxes & HS Codes
Customs is outside our shipping cost. Below is what you need to know about duties, HS codes, de minimis thresholds, and how DHL Express vs Economy handle clearance.
Buyer Responsibility
Customs duties, import taxes, and any customs clearance fees are the buyer's responsibility. These are not included in our quote or shipping cost.
HS Codes for Labels
- Paper labels
- HS 4821 — typically low or zero duty
- Plastic labels
- HS 4811 or 3919 — typically low or zero duty
Always confirm with your customs broker.
De Minimis Thresholds
Many label orders fall under these thresholds and enter duty-free:
DHL Express Customs
DHL Express handles customs clearance on your behalf. You pay duties/taxes to DHL on delivery (or via DHL invoice). Economy shipments may use a third-party broker.
Delays, Lost Packages, & Damaged Shipments
Things don't always go smoothly in international shipping. Here's exactly how we handle the four most common shipping issues — no support tickets, no runaround.
What happens if my package is delayed in customs?
Customs delays are beyond our control. DHL contacts buyers directly for any documentation needed. We provide commercial invoices and packing lists immediately on request.
What if my package is lost in transit?
If a package is confirmed lost by the carrier, we reprint and reship at our cost. We file the carrier claim on our side; you don't wait for the resolution.
My package arrived damaged — what do I do?
Photo-document damage within 7 days of delivery. Email photos to [email protected]. We'll assess and either reprint damaged labels free of charge or issue partial refund.
Can I change my shipping address after production starts?
Yes, if DHL hasn't picked up yet. $25 address-change fee for DHL redirect. No fee for economy (if not yet shipped from origin).
