Import Taxes - Including the EU from January 1st 2021
For delivery outside the United Kingdom, you may be required to pay an import tax or duty upon delivery. In some countries, the customs agency may impose a tax/duty on imported goods, and the recipient (you) may be required to pay this tax/duty when the package is delivered.
The customer is responsible for paying any taxes or duties or customs clearance fees, and meeting any other import requirements imposed by the customs agency in their country.
If the recipient refuses to pay required import taxes/duties, the customs agency may prevent delivery and return or destroy the package, in which case the customer will not receive a full refund and may receive no refund based on the following:
1) For international orders denied entry or delivery by customs for any reason (including failure of the recipient to pay import duties/taxes) or refused by the recipient, the customer will not be refunded for the original shipping charge or for any charges assessed by the courier for return shipment to us. As such, no refund will be issued if the cost of return shipment exceeds the value of the product. If the value of the product exceeds the cost of return shipment, a partial refund for the difference will be issued once the product is returned.
2) If the customs agency destroys the package due to the recipient's failure to accept delivery or pay the required import duties/taxes, the value of the merchandise will also not be refunded to the customer. In this case, no refund will be issued.

FAQS
Do I have to pay for returns?
Yes. While there are no extra returns fees from us, as the buyer you will be responsible for the cost of your return postage via whichever postal service you prefer. We recommend using a tracked service for returning goods as we cannot accept responsibility for items lost in transit.
International orders: Standard air mail is the most used service for returns, however, for peace of mind, you may wish to send via a tracked service. On the customs form, include the value of 0 and state that it is a return of unwanted baby clothing.
We cannot accept liability for items lost when returned to us. If we have agreed to cover return postage for a faulty item, we will indicate which service you need to use as we cannot cover postage upgrades.

How should I package my return?
All returns need to be adequately packaged to avoid damage in transit. You are responsible for the item until it arrives back with us and we cannot issue refunds or replacements for goods damaged or missing during transit.
Together with your completed returns forms, we recommend packaging up your return by reusing the bag your item arrived in, or a normal mailing bag along with any other packaging included with your order.
Please do not return any boxed item in a mailing bag or non-padded, or paper envelopes designed for sending letters. This will not protect the item in transit, and the return may be refused upon arrival.
Can I exchange an item?
Unfortunately, we do not offer exchanges at the moment. If you wish to an exchange an item, we ask that you return the item for a refund and then reorder through the website.
We only replace items if they are defective or damaged.
Where is my refund?
If you haven’t received your refund (allowing 14 working days for your return to be processed and the funds to be returned to your original payment method), first check your bank account again. Then contact your bank/credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted.
If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund, please contact us at returns@abeautifulnew.co.uk
I've received a faulty item, what should I do?
All our items are fully checked for faults before they are packaged and posted to you, so we do hope that you will be totally happy with each Beautiful New item. If you think you have received a faulty item, please contact us at returns@abeautifulnew.co.uk within 14 days of receiving your order with a photo of the fault, we will then offer a replacement, repair or refund.
Claims for damaged/faulty items will only be accepted if the item is unworn/unwashed and still has tags attached. We will not accept claims for damage caused to items that have been washed or laundered.
After 30 days, the order will be accepted by you and assumed to be correct and not faulty or damaged, meaning that no refund or replacement will be issued.
We would kindly ask that you wait for a response from us before returning any item(s)so we can get back to you with any specific instructions or clarification needed on your return.
All items reported as faulty will be inspected by us upon arrival. Please bear in mind that items showing defects deemed to be due to accidental damage, general wear and tear, age or neglect will not be regarded as faulty.
