The price of the Products will be as quoted on the Sites from time to time and include VAT (where applicable) at the rate applicable in the delivery destination on the day you place your order on the Site. Global-E reserves the right to update these rates regularly at its sole discretion, and you acknowledge that such updates may affect product pricing on the Sites.

You will provide valid and current information for yourself and, if applicable, another person, but only if you have obtained their express consent to do so. Global-E may use tools, software, or services of payment processors to process transactions on their behalf. You may be charged additional fees (such as foreign transaction fees or cross-border fees) or surcharges imposed by your bank or credit/debit card issuer. These additional fees or surcharges are not our or Global-E’s charges or fees, and neither we nor Global-E have control over this or any way to mitigate it, as it depends solely on the relationship and commercial terms between you and your bank or credit/debit card issuer. We and Global-E have no way of knowing in advance whether you will be charged such fees or surcharges, as each bank and credit/debit card issuer has its own policy. Our and Global-E’s commitment is to charge the amount set at checkout in your local currency. If your payment is not received by Global-E for any reason from your card issuer, you agree to promptly pay all amounts due upon request and using the method that Global-E reasonably prescribes.

Execute related documents on your behalf in connection with the import of goods in your order. Facilitate your payment of applicable taxes. Handle the return of products to Scales & Ember (subject to these Terms) and, if applicable, manage the associated reimbursement claim for taxes paid. You acknowledge that, in the case of a return of products under these Terms, Global-E may reimburse and refund you for the cost of the merchandise, but not the import charges, which may or may not be reimbursable by the relevant authority. If Global-E obtains reimbursement of taxes paid on your behalf, any such reimbursement will be paid by the applicable tax authority to the customs broker, and Global-E will reimburse such amounts directly to you, if and when Global-E receives such amounts from the customs broker. You may be required to pay import duties and taxes when your shipment reaches its destination. You are responsible for any additional charges for customs clearance. Please note that customs policies vary widely from destination to destination. We recommend contacting your local customs office for further information.
