Customer can pay by credit or debit card such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. Currently, we accept payment in US currency only.

LuggageToShip will not charge your card until we review and process the order. Your card will usually be charged within 1 business day after the order is submitted.

The main reason is customer mistakenly entered wrong credit card information. We strongly suggest customer to double check their payment information before submission. However, there are many other reasons that lead to credit card decline:
- There are not enough funds on your card.
- The credit card is not open to international transactions (non-US credit cards only).
- The credit card issued bank has placed high levels of security measures on your card.

Because the issued bank will not provide us detailed information as to why your credit card was declined, we suggest you contact your bank directly to check and solve the possible issues.

We strongly suggest you ship hard case luggage for a long international shipment. Please be advised that soft case luggage or duffle bags may be refused by our carrier partner for contents safety concerns.

We can collect from most standard addresses worldwide. However, if you are sending to or from an area outside of the daily rounds of the carrier’s network, it may be designated as a "remote area". Typically, remote areas are places such as ski resorts and rural locations, and in some cases, it may be a standard populated area which our partners do not yet service as part of their daily route.

When sending to or from a remote area, an additional fee will be applied. We will inform you before your order is processed.

No, it is not necessary for you to stay at the destination address to receive the delivery. Family, relatives, friends, employees, residence doorman, or any other authorized person can accept the package on your behalf. A delivery signature is required for all international shipments. If you are shipping your items to a hotel, please check with the hotel if they can accept it for you in advance. If you are shipping items to a school, please check your campus delivery or mail room policies before booking your order.

A detailed packing list with item name, quantity, and value is always required by customs department of both export and import country.

If you are travelling and sending your used personal effects or sport equipment ahead, the customs of destination country may require your passport, visa, and travel itinerary copies to confirm the goods are intended for personal use and have no commercial value or are not intended for other purposes. In most cases, this will allow used personal effects to enter the country without customs delay.

Occasionally, the customs of the destination country may ask for additional documents based on the item(s) you are sending. We recommend our customers to fully comply with customs in order to have the shipment cleared and delivered as promptly as possible.

Please contact us at 1-800-678-6167 or email us at cs@luggagetoship.com if you have any question.

Any international shipment is subject to customs clearance and may be levied duties, taxes and/or related customs fees by the customs of destination country regardless of the shipment purpose and value. Please be advised LuggageToShip shipping fee DOES NOT include duties, taxes and related customs services fees. Customer is responsible for any duties, taxes, and related customs charges if applied (such as storage fee, brokerage fee, etc).

If any duties, taxes or related fees are due, you will be contacted by the local shipping carrier. If for any reason the call is missed or cannot be reached, you may need to contact the local carrier directly for payment instructions.

There are few instances where our carrier partner will pay in advance the due fees to customs to have the shipment released and avoid further delays, if customs allows. When your shipment is dispatched for delivery, the customs charges need to be reimbursed to carrier before your shipment can be finally handed and delivered to you.

If your shipment is time sensitive, we suggest planning in advance, shipping at least one week before your travel, or contact us. There are many reasons that triggers customs delay, such as:
1) Missing or incomplete customs document(s)
2) Customs investigation or inspection
3) Requesting further information or document(s) from consignee
4) High volume of shipments for clearance
5) Due payment (applied duties and taxes and related custom services fee)
LuggageToShip team will monitor every shipment and timely communicate with the carrier and customer for any customs delay. Please contact us at 1-800-678-6167 or email us at cs@luggagetoship.com for additional information

Please contact us at 1-800-678-6167 or email us at cs@luggagetoship.com if you need further assistance.

If you travel and send your used personal effects or sport equipment ahead, the customs of the destination country may require a copy of the consignee passport and visa to confirm the goods are intended for personal use and have no commercial value or are not intended for other purposes. In most cases, this will allow personal effects to enter the country without customs delay.
You can upload your passport and visa copy in order details page, passport information part.

If you are not comfortable providing us these documents, you may omit it and provide it directly to the local carrier if it is required.

If you travel and ship your used personal effects or sport equipment, we recommend our customers to provide the travel itinerary to the customs authority. Clearing personal effects through customs is different from clearing a commercial shipment. The customs authorities will require proof that the owner of the goods intends to remain the owner. The easiest and quickest way to demonstrate that you intend to remain with the items is to show that you have travelled with them, or plan to do so in the future.

You can upload and fill in your travel itinerary in order details page, travel itinerary part.

If you are not comfortable providing us this information, you may omit it and provide it directly to the local carrier if it is required.
