Ordinarily:
Delivery time
Orders sent to the UK should reach the customer within 3-5 working days. We aim to dispatch orders within 2-3 working days depending on stock and demand at that time.
For deliveries within Europe the shipping time should be around 5-7 working days. Deliveries to USA, Canada, Australia & New Zealand can take up to 14 days so please wait for this time to pass before contacting us.
Brexit:
Post-Brexit it is now necessary to pay local country VAT when importing goods from the UK to European countries. Please be aware when you are buying from Threads of Life that this charge will be made by the shipping company and will need to be paid before you can receive the shipment. It should be the standard rate of VAT for the delivery country. When you enter your delivery address outside of the UK at checkout the UK VAT will automatically be removed from your items.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this and thank you for your understanding at this time.
