Important Notice for International Buyers
Returns & Hygiene Policy
Eligibility, hygiene rules and non-returnable items
Return Eligibility (30-Day Policy)
Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery for items that are unopened and unused, in the original packaging, and authorised in advance by our team.
We strongly recommend confirming product suitability before opening or using any medical device. Once opened, even briefly, an item can no longer be resold as new.
Non-Returnable Items (Hygiene & Safety)
For hygiene and regulatory reasons, the following items are non-returnable once opened, even if unused: CPAP masks (nasal, full-face, pillow), tubing and air filters, humidifier chambers and sealed accessories, and any product with a hygiene seal or medical sterility marking.
Refund Policy
Refund eligibility, deductions and processing times
Unopened & Unused Items
Eligible for a full product refund. Item must be sealed and in perfect resale condition. Original shipping is not refunded. Return shipping is the customer's responsibility.
Opened but Unused Items
Return accepted with a 40% restocking deduction to cover inspection, repackaging, and restocking. The item may need to be resold as used. Original shipping is not refunded. Return shipping is the customer's responsibility.
Opened & Used Items
No returns or refunds are available due to hygiene, safety, and regulatory requirements for medical devices.
Cancellation Before Dispatch
If you cancel before dispatch, you will receive a full refund including shipping. No fees will be deducted. Please call or use WhatsApp immediately — do not email for urgent cancellations, as emails are processed later in the day.
Refund Processing Time
We aim to process eligible refunds within 5 working days of return inspection. Refunds are issued to the original payment method.
For full details on refunds, eligibility, timelines and deductions, please see our dedicated Return & Refund Policy page.

Customs, Duties & Taxes
Who pays, delivery terms, documentation and refused shipments
Who Pays Import Duties & Taxes?
All international orders are shipped on a DAP (Delivered At Place) basis. Import taxes, duties, customs clearance fees, and any local charges are not included in the product price or shipping cost and must be paid by the recipient upon import.
The shipping carrier or customs authority may contact you to request payment or additional documentation. Please respond promptly to avoid delays.
Customs Clearance & Documentation
Your shipment may pass through local customs for routine administrative clearance. We provide a commercial invoice and packing list with every shipment. Any permits, licences, or prescriptions required by your local authority remain the responsibility of the buyer.
Local customs authorities may request identification, tax numbers such as EORI or VAT, or additional documentation to clear medical equipment. This is a regulatory requirement and outside of our control.
What Happens if Customs Refuse Entry?
Customers are responsible for ensuring that medical items are permitted for import into their country. If a shipment is refused due to local regulations or medical device restrictions:
Returned to Sender: If the parcel is returned to us in good, resalable condition, we will refund the product price only. Original shipping, return freight, customs handling and carrier fees are non-refundable and may be deducted.
Seized or Disposed by Customs: If customs seize, abandon or destroy the parcel, no refund can be issued.
Returns Across Borders: If you return goods internationally after delivery, any import taxes or duties already paid are subject to your local authority refund process. This varies by country and must be handled directly with your customs office. We can provide proof of export or return where available.
Delivery Timelines & Tracking
Expected delivery times and how to track your order
Estimated Delivery Times
UK Standard: 2–3 working days from dispatch | UK Next-Day: Orders before 12:00 noon (Mon–Fri) | International Express: Usually 3–5 working days
Customs clearance or remote areas can extend delivery times. You will receive a tracking link by email as soon as your parcel is dispatched.
How Do I Track My Order?
A tracking link is emailed to you at the time of dispatch. Click the link to view the latest status directly on the courier's tracking page. If you have not received your tracking email, check your spam folder or contact us with your order number.
I Missed My Delivery — What Should I Do?
Use the tracking link from your dispatch email to check the latest status. Most couriers will automatically attempt re-delivery or leave your parcel at a nearby collection point. You can usually rearrange delivery directly through the courier's tracking page.
