Please note that items shipped outside of the European Union may be subject to import duties, taxes and/or charges, which are not included in the total cost of your order or included in the cost of shipping. These fees are not covered or reimbursed by Baron Filou.
Any additional charges for customs clearance are the responsibility of the recipient specified on the delivery address, as BARON FILOU does not have any influence on such costs.
