Disclaimer for International Shipping, Customs Duties, and Import Taxes.
The amount paid to Ara Handcrafted covers the product price and the shipping charges shown at checkout, unless we explicitly state otherwise. Any additional customs duties, import taxes, VAT, or clearance fees imposed by your country's authorities are the responsibility of the recipient. Ara Handcrafted has no control over customs regulations or fees assessed in the destination country. By placing an international order, you acknowledge that such charges, if any, must be paid by the recipient.' You could also add a short note at checkout saying, 'Important notice for international orders: your payment covers your products and the shipping specified at checkout. Additional customs duties, import taxes, VAT, and clearance fees may be charged by your country's authorities upon arrival and must be paid by the recipient.' That way, customers understand before they buy, especially in places like Nigeria where unexpected import charges are common. Just make sure your shipping terms match what you actually do at checkout.
