Shipping & Customs Information

 


🎀 Shipping & Customs Information

Hello dear Cosplayers! 🌸

Please note: You are ordering from an international e-commerce platform outside the European Union. This shopping model is very common today – and don't worry:
👉 We have been serving EU customers for over 10 years with extensive experience and passion.

The following information is intended to provide you with full transparency, build trust, and avoid misunderstandings – so that your shopping experience with us remains relaxed and worry-free. 💖

Good news:
Our primary free shipping already includes all customs costs. So in most cases, you don't have to worry about anything.

At CosplayDirekt.de, we attach great importance to fair, transparent, and customer-friendly shipping and service conditions.


📦 Shipping Options

1️⃣ Free Standard Shipping (DDP – Delivered Duty Paid)

Our standard shipping method for most EU countries (e.g. Germany & Austria) is:

DPD Parcel

✅ Shipping costs already included in the price
✅ Customs duties already paid
✅ No additional costs for you
✅ Stress-free delivery

This means: Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) – we take care of customs & import processing for you.

💡 Delivery time:
Since shipping is international, the delivery time is usually 2–3 weeks.
Thank you for your patience – your cosplay is carefully making its way to you! ✨

👉 We expressly recommend this shipping method for the most pleasant experience.


⚡ 2️⃣ DHL Express (DDU – Delivered Duty Unpaid)

If you need your cosplay particularly quickly, you can choose DHL Express.

Here applies:

DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid) means:
Import duties are initially paid by the recipient.

Procedure:

  1. You pay the customs fees upon delivery.

  2. After that, simply send us the proof of payment.

  3. Our customer service will refund your costs. 💌


⚠️ Important note on DHL Express

By selecting DHL Express, you agree to:

  • cooperate with customs clearance

  • pay required fees

Should customs payment be refused and the shipment subsequently blocked or destroyed, very high logistics costs will be incurred. In this rare case, we can unfortunately only:

  • refund 20% of the product price

  • DHL shipping costs are non-refundable

Therefore, we only recommend DHL Express if your cosplay is really urgently needed. Thank you for your understanding! 💛


📦 Note on the €150 order limit

To ensure your package gets through EU customs as quickly as possible, we recommend:

👉 Keep order value per order under €150

Why?

  • Shipments over €150 are more frequently officially customs cleared

  • this can lead to delays or additional fees

Our tip:
For larger purchases, simply place several smaller orders
(e.g., two orders of €100 each).

This way, your cosplay usually reaches you much faster!
