International Shipping
All of Bhagalpur Silks orders are shipped internationally from our warehouses across India to your provided shipping address via UPS/FEDEX. Shipping Charge paid by buyer at time of order dispatched. Due to the nature of international shipping, occasionally a customer may have to pay additional import duties and taxes which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. The large majority of orders will not have to pay any additional fees. However, we are unable to calculate when and how much these infrequent customs duty charges will be levied. In the case where additional customs charges are assessed, you will be responsible for paying these additional fees. To make your shopping experience as seamless as possible, we have arranged with UPS/FEDEX to customs clear your goods for you and deliver them to your doorstep. If you are presented with an invoice from UPS/FEDEX for import duties and taxes, you will have to pay UPS/FEDEX directly at the time of delivery.
Our Shipping Policy is extremely simple and we have attempt to make it even more transparent. For your ease, we have made the Shipping Policy very ease for you to read and understand.
Hi, I do not live in India, how will you send Order to me?
We deliver Sarees and all other goods across the world.

Once its ready for shipment, we handover the packed shipment to Logistics Courier. Logistics Courier will fly your parcel to wherever you are. They deliver to the remotest and tiniest corners of the world so, we are very sure, your Order will somehow find you.
Ok, Great!How long will it take for my Order to reach me?
Each product is marked with the suggestive days it would be ready for shipment. Therefore, if the product page shows 7 days, then the product will be ready from our end for dispatch. We thereafter, handover the parcels to courier against a particular tracking number. Such tracking number will be sent to you, via Whatsapp and email. You will then be able to yourself track your Shipment. Typically, it takes 10-12 days to deliver under their standard shipping norms. Please note that global logistics companies deliver during working hours and during weekdays, so we would advise you to make someone available to receive the shipment during such hours/day at the Shipping Address mentioned in your Order.
Sounds good. How much do I have to pay for Shipping?
Your shipping cost is calculated on the weight and size of each package including the product, the packing material etc. The shipping cost also factors in the country of shipment. Once you choose a product and add it to ‘My Cart’ and proceed to Checkout, you will be able to place the order. After order creation you have to pay shipping cost.
But what if I order 2 products of the same type – will you charge me double for shipping? How do you calculate?
It does not matter how many product you ordered. The shipping cost is calculated only on the factors mentioned above i.e. size, weight and destination.
What if I don’t like the product when I receive it and want to exchange it – who will pay for the shipping?
It is very simple. If you are returning a Product because of a damaged product, the cost of shipping shall be entirely ours. In the event, you are returning a Product because you do not like it anymore or if you would like to exchange it, then the cost shall be borne entirely by you. Its that simple! Please note however that any returns are subject to the product being in an absolute new condition and in the manner it was sent without the folds etc of the Saree being displaced. You can read more about it in our Exchange & Return Policy section.
Hi, I am from United States but I would like to send a gift to India – do I have to pay for shipping?
No. It does not matter where you are from. The only thing that matters is the destination of delivery. If it is India, it is free – if it’s not in India, you will have to pay for it!
Who bears the transit risk?
Once we handover your parcel to Courier, we take no responsibility towards the same. We are more than confident that a global leader such as UPS/FEDEX will surely be able to deliver your parcel. And yes, till date, they have never failed us.
Are there any custom duties etc payable on the import of the Product?
