The standard delivery time is between 2 to 15 business days depending on the shipment method and subject to conditions. Estimated delivery times are to be used only as a guide commencing from the date of dispatch. TWG Tea is not responsible for any delays caused by any customs clearance processes.

We require a signature for any goods delivered for all local deliveries and for international orders worth $50 or more, at which point risk and title for your purchased goods passes to you. If you have specified a recipient who is not you for delivery purposes (for example as a gift) then you accept that evidence of a signature by them (or at that delivery address) is evidence of delivery and fulfilment by TWG Tea, and transfer of responsibility in the same way. TWG Tea will not accept any responsibilities should the intended recipient no longer be at that address provided, if the receiver refuses and/or fails to return the items.

    14.5. TWG Tea waives standard shipping charges for all Singapore deliveries through Ninja Van. TWG Tea charges for standard shipping for all International deliveries through DHL Express. TWG Tea may also offer additional shipping options from time to time and charges will be displayed at during the checkout process.

    14.6. TWG Tea has used best efforts to ensure that where certain countries impose shipping restrictions on certain Products, the Products falling under those restrictions will not be offered for sale when that particular country is selected. However, TWG Tea will not be responsible in the event any item is detained or declined at customs due to any reason including shipping restrictions. In the event any item purchased which has been declined by customs and returned to TWG Tea, we will provide you with a full refund of the amount you originally paid.
