International Orders – Customs, Duties & Currency Conversion
All transactions are processed in Australian Dollars (AUD). Your bank or payment provider will handle the currency conversion at the time of payment, and the final amount charged may vary depending on the exchange rate and any fees they apply.
For international shipments Australian GST is not charged however local taxes, customs duties, and other fees may apply once your package arrives in your country, and these costs are the recipient’s responsibility. Cracker Jack Costumes has no control over these fees and cannot forecast their amount. We are not accountable for any extra charges that may be imposed on your order, and returns cannot be processed if such fees are incurred. As customs regulations differ between countries, we advise you to consult your local customs office for further details. If you decide not to pay these fees, your package might be returned or abandoned, and Cracker Jack Costumes will not be liable for any resulting financial losses or refunds. Additionally, we cannot label international orders as gifts to circumvent or lessen these charges, as this practice is not permitted.
