20 – CUSTOMS
Countries outside of Australia (not including NZ or the US) may be subject to additional duties to be paid.
As the recipient, you are liable for all import duties, customs and local sales taxes levied by the country you reside in; payment of these is necessary to release your order from customs on arrival.
The final value of your order does not include any additional duties required. The carrier, prior to delivery, may inform you of the additional duties.
If you refuse to pay the duties to release your order, the order will subsequently be returned to the QIS Unit Trust warehouse and refunded. A shipping & handling fee may be deducted from your refund.
By law, QIS Unit Trust is required to state the correct amount paid for any outgoing international package. Any requests to change this information will be denied.
21 – INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS
You are responsible to know the import regulations for your country. Please research all supplements to ensure that they are legal for importation PRIOR to ordering. Once the order has left our premises we cannot be held responsible for customs delays.
If, by chance, the order is returned to us and you wish to have a refund then we will do so only after we have received the returned goods. The refund will be calculated as Total Cost, Less Shipping that we pay.
We provide tracking information for all orders so please be diligent and keep track of your orders’ progress.
We do not have a reship policy.
Please know your own import regulations before ordering. It is your responsibility to be aware of your own country’s import laws and therefore you are responsible for dealing with your country’s Customs process. If any Customs authority does not return the products to us we cannot issue the refund to you.
If your order is denied entry into your country, we strongly advise attempting to have the items sent back to us and we will refund your order, less the cost of shipping.
22 – PRE-SALE CONDITIONS
By opting in and paying for an item purchased on pre-sale, you understand and accept this product will be allocated to you and shipped in the noted month. We do not offer refunds on pre-sale items. If you do wish to cancel your pre-sale order, you agree and understand you will need to cover a cancellation fee of 20% of value of the product.
23 - RETURN TO SENDER
If your tracking information shows your parcel is being 'Returned to Sender (RTS)', it is likely the courier has encountered an issue with finalising your delivery, or multiple deliveries have been attempted without success. It can also indicate your parcel has been awaiting collection from a post office or parcel collection for an extended period of time.
When RTS packages are received at our warehouse, we will contact the customer as soon as practicable and may provide solutions for redelivery. Please note, additional redelivery costs may be required in some scenarios. If we do not receive a response from the customer within 5 working days of us contacting the customer, we will proceed to cancel the order and issue a store credit for the value of the purchase, less the original shipping cost.
24 – STOLEN PACKAGES
At QIS Unit Trust, we are committed to providing accurate and secure deliveries to our valued customers. While we make every effort to ensure that your orders reach you safely, it's important to acknowledge that certain factors may be beyond our control. Unfortunately, instances of package theft, despite deliveries being made in accordance with courier guidelines or marked as delivered in a location deemed secure by the courier, are not covered by our liability. In the event of theft, we strongly advise you to report the incident to your local authorities for further investigation. QIS Unit Trust cannot be held liable for stolen packages that have been marked as delivered by the carrier. However, rest assured that we are dedicated to assisting you in resolving any issues that may arise to the best of our ability.
25 – CREDIT CARD SURCHARGES
When making a purchase on our website using a credit card including but not limited to Visa, American Express or Mastercard, a surcharge may be applied to cover the cost of processing fees imposed by card networks.

By proceeding with a transaction across any channels of purchase with us, you acknowledge and agree to the additional surcharge applied to your transaction. Our surcharging practices comply with all applicable laws and regulations. We reserve the right to modify the surcharge percentage or flat rate at any time in accordance with legal requirements
