For safety reasons, the products are delivered to the delivery address when paying online. In orders for which some items are not available, KuSaKuraShop.com can divide the order into several parcels if requested by the client(induces additional shipping charges). Delivery times correspond to the time taken by the joint action of the JAPANESE and FOREIGN end of each Carrier (Japan Post, FedEx, UPS). KuSaKuraShop.com cannot be held responsible for an eventual delay in delivery, in particular, for reasons relating to possible customs controls. Shipping fees are set at the time of ordering.

These reserves are recorded on the form provided by the carrier and confirmed by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to the carrier. Such letter must be sent no later than two working days after receiving the package, and a copy of these claims should be sent to KuSaKuraShop.com within the 48 hours following receipt of the order.
In case of error by KuSaKuraShop.com, the customer must inform KuSaKuraShop within 48 hours of receipt of order. KuSaKuraShop.com will pay the return shipping cost, and if applicable, the refund of the order OR send an adequate product.

The buyer is asked to report in a timely manner any information it may have concerning the status of the package. These information may be obtained either directly from the carrier or via the tracking number provided in the order shipping confirmation email.
Reimbursement of lost or damaged packages will be made after pre-survey (about 7 days) for express parcels and only after the conclusion of the investigation of postal services for other delivery methods (4 to 8 weeks).
Refunds
Credit card refund is made directly on the card used to make payment online within 2 to 7 days.
Reimbursements following returns or order cancellations can only be granted within 45 days after payment of the order, because it is technically impossible to reimburse a credit card after this period.

Bank transfers will not be refunded for any reason. Any compensation would be made in the form of a discount voucher.

Credit card payment fees (~3%) will only be refunded in case of a KuSakuraShop mistake. Order cancellation/modification/return on customer request will be deducted of the payement fees.
Importation
KuSaKuraShop, the exporter, is subject to Japanese law. The customer is the importer and, therefore, is subjected to the law of the importing country.
It is the responsibility of the buyer to verify the product conformity with the legislation in their country.
KuSaKuraShop's responsibility cannot be engaged in case of noncompliance with the legislation of the country where the products are delivered. The customer is responsible for checking with the local authorities about the possibilities of importation or use of the products before placing the order.
