Duties and taxes

Internationally shipped packages may be subject to customs and import fees. The exact amount of these fees are determined by your local customs laws.

We recommend checking with your local customs office for more information on import taxes, customs duties, and handling fees.

For more info about your local customs laws or how to contact your local customs office, visit our 'Learn More' page. 

iHerb doesn't collect any portion of these fees and does not determine any taxes, duties, tariffs, or other fees charged.

1. Add items to cart
2. Enter your zip/postal code to view available shipping methods
3. If a DDP shipping method is available, it will indicate how much the Prepaid Duties & Taxes will be:
