Are there any import duties or taxes when my Global order arrives?

Yes. Import duties, taxes, and fees ("Import Fees") may apply upon delivery. These are determined by your local customs authorities and are your responsibility.

How noon helps  
noon Global Store estimates and collects an Import Fees Deposit (or Import Charge) at checkout. With your authorization, the courier or agent uses this to pay customs on your behalf.

Key Details  
- Prices on the Global Store include the estimated import fees deposit for importing into your country.  
- The deposit and shipping charges are shown during checkout for review before purchase.  
- Import VAT is generally applied to all orders shipped from outside your country, at your country's standard rate.  
- Import Fees are calculated on the pre-promotion price (market value before noon discounts). Fees based on this amount are remitted to customs.  
- Carriers/agents use the deposit to pay actual Import Fees.  
- Duties vary by product category and local regulations. 

Calculating Import Fees  
Actual fees depend on:  
- Customs regulations in your country  
- Product category and value  
- Shipping method  
Typically: (Product price after discounts + shipping) × applicable rates  

Import Fees Deposit vs Actual  
- The Deposit is an estimate, may be higher or lower than actual fees.  
- If actual fees are lower, the difference is automatically refunded to your original payment method.  
- You’ll receive an email confirming the refund amount.  

Import Charges  
A fixed component covering all customs processes and costs (including fees paid on your behalf). May not equal actual customs charges.  

We recommend checking your local customs office for precise rates.
