INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
Somme Institute ships to the US & Canada only. We’re hoping to expand to other countries in the future. If you have a special order you’d like to place with us, just visit our Amazon storefront to place your international orders.
Shipments to Hawaii and Alaska are considered domestic shipments. Please note that some expedited shipping services may not be available for these states. In this case, we will ship your order via the least expensive shipping service. Additionally, shipments to these states will require additional shipping charges and will be charged to your credit card once your order ships.
For all orders shipping to the 48 contiguous states, you will be given a choice between Standard, 3-Day, 2-Day & 1-Day.
The receiver of an international order is considered the importer and may be subject to import taxes, duties and fees required by the destination country. These charges are out of our control.
Customs policies differ from country to country and the receiver should contact their local customs office for more information.
Once an International order is shipped out, we are unable to amend the order.
Packages sent by international standard delivery are not insured and customers are responsible for filing claims for lost or stolen packages with their local postal service. Tracking information can vary greatly between countries and may be limited. Please note that some countries postal services do not share tracking data.
