We will ship your order once all items are available. If you wish to receive your available item before the pre-ordered one, please contact our customer service team.

As the recipient, you are liable for all import duties, customs and local sales taxes levied by the country you are shipping to; payment of these maybe necessary to release your order from customs on arrival. FAE will not be held liable for any fees or taxes you may incur or if your product is seized by customs. We advise that you are familiar with your package destination's import duty, customs and local sales taxes, as well as it's rules and regulations for importing foreign goods and products. If a delivery attempt has been made and the item was not collected and has been returned to us, you will be required to pay the re-delivery fee and the duty tax for re-import of the swimwear. If the duty tax is more then the value of the swimwear, we will abandon the package.
