UK ORDERS AND BREXIT

Shipping rates apply

Following Brexit, all orders with a value of more than 135£ shipping to the UK may now be subject to customs fees, Import VAT and handling fees. These fees can be up to 40% of the value of the item!  The current information, as provided by HMRC here, suggests the following:

    • For items over 135£ - Under UK customs law, the importer (you/customer) is legally responsible for paying the Import VAT when the goods are received
    • Royal Mail (or carrier) may charge a handling fee to cover the costs for carrying out customs procedures, which includes paying any Customs Duty or Import VAT due and collecting it from you. This fee is the responsibility of the importer (Sleepy Fox® customer). These fees are at the sole discretion of the carrier / processor and Sleepy Fox® has no influence over these handling fees
    • For Items with a value of 135£ or less, VAT is included in the price per UK regulations. 

Any and all fees, duties and Import VAT imposed at the UK border are the sole responsibility of, and payable by, the customer.

You can find out more about Import VAT and other charges on shipments being imported to the UK at the HMRC website here: 

https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty

Any orders returned to Sleepy Fox® due to unpaid fees, duties or taxes from the UK will incur a 29,99€ Return Shipment, Documentation & Processing Fee. This fee will be deducted from any refund due.  Refunds cannot be issued until the order is returned back to our office.

Sleepy Fox® cannot refund any fees, duties or VAT on returned or exchanged products. 

By placing an order with Sleepy Fox® you agree to the terms outlined above. 

 

SHIPPING TO NORTH AMERICA

All items ship from Germany.  Please read Return / Exchange section below closely. 

Current shipping times to North America can range from 1-2 weeks for accessories / small items and up to 8 weeks for Snuggle Cave Beds.  

As of May 2024 the average transit time is approximately 4-5 weeks (but may take longer).

Additionally, North America imposed a Crisis Fee on all non-essential items entering their countries in 2020 and they continue to impose these fees.  Unfortunately, we have had to add this non-refundable Crisis Fee to all orders shipping to the North America.  Thank you for your understanding. 

Delivery times to North America:

Due to the size of our dog beds, they are shipped to North America via ship. 

You can track your order here:  DHL / English 
Once your order arrives in the USA, enter your tracking number here: USPS Tracking

Please note that custom clearance information in the USA is not always up to date. We have been experiencing issues with shipments not being scanned correctly upon port clearance, resulting in shipments being forwarded without live tracking updates. This means that it is possible that your package has cleared customs and is on its way to you, but is still showing at the customs office.  USPS and DHL are working to resolve these issues, and we will continue to keep you up to date when we have new information. 

We are very sorry, but we are unable to offer refunds or compensation due to shipping delays.

Returns / Exchanges from USA / North America

Please note that shipping costs back to Germany are extremely expensive and can even cost more than the product itself. We highly recommend that if you have any questions about size or color, you email us before buying - as returns and / or exchanges are cost prohibitive. 

Crisis Fees:
August 2024 update:  America has yet to lift the imposed "Crisis Fee" to all non-essential goods entering the US and Canada. Therefore, all orders shipping to North America from Europe now include the cost of a non-refundable Crisis Fee. 
We are terribly sorry.

By placing an order from our online Sleepy-Fox store, you agree to accept the estimated delivery times and fees. 

Thank you for patience and understanding during these unique and challenging times.

 

RETURNS AND EXCHANGES 

IMPORTANT: All returns must be shipped to our offices in Germany. All return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer. 

International return shipping costs are extremely expensive and should not be considered an option.

RETURNS

To be eligible for a return from Sleepy Fox®/Happy Hanalei GmbH, you must have purchased your item directly from www.sleepy-fox.com/.de. If you did not purchase your Sleepy Fox® directly from www.sleepy-fox.com/de, you must contact the store in which you purchased your bed to request an exchange or refund.

You may return or exchange any unused item within 14 calendar days of purchase. To be eligible for a refund, the returned item(s) must be clean, unused and in the same saleable condition that you received them.  

International return shipping costs are extremely expensive and should not be considered an option. 

Sleepy Fox® is unable to refund any additional shipping fees, import fees and / or Crisis Fees paid on returns or exchanges. 

You must contact us via email at woof@sleepy-fox.com PRIOR to shipping any goods back, to let us know if you would prefer a return or exchange and why your item did not meet your expectations.

Once we receive your email, we will issue you a return authorization number and provide you with the return address. Please note that based on your location, the return address may be different than the original shipping address.

Remember, you must return your clean, unused item(s) in the original packaging with the hang tags attached to Germany. 

Please note - you will be responsible for all return/exchange shipping costs to Germany.  It is advised that you purchase sufficient postal insurance from a provider of your choice to cover the full value of your exchange/return, as Sleepy Fox® is unable to reimburse returns or exchanges that go missing or get damaged in transit. It is advisable to retain your proof of postage until you have received your refund. In addition, if you paid international shipping or expedited shipping fees, these costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping (if charged back to Sleepy Fox®) will be deducted from your refund.
