We use DHL for nearly all UK deliveries.

order within 2 to 5 days.
For Express deliveries [UK only], for orders received before
3pm, we will process and despatch your order on a priority basis to
ensure it reaches you the next working day. Our shipping department
is open Monday to Friday meaning, an express order placed on a
Friday before 3pm will be scheduled for delivery the following
Monday. Our Express service is handled by DHL, we aim for you to
receive your order within 2 working days. DHL will contact you by
email to help you track your order once it has been dispatched.
We will use all reasonable endeavours to ensure these times are
met, but cannot be held responsible for despatched parcels delayed
by third parties, for example due to poor weather conditions.

INTERNATIONAL
DELIVERIES
We use DHL for nearly all international deliveries.
Because of recent problems we have experienced, we are very sorry
to advise that we are unable to deliver to Ukraine, Russia and
Nigeria at this time. For further advice on these countries,
please email us attwiningsdirect@twinings.com.
This is an air freight service and transit time will be between
1 and 6 days, depending on the destination. A signature will
be required on receipt.
We pass on to our customers only the exact courier cost to us,
which is calculated based upon product weight only [we ignore
the weight of the outer packaging] and the destination country.
All DHL international customers will receive a tracking email to
show the progress of their parcel.
When ordering goods from our site for delivery overseas you may
be subject to additional import duties and taxes, which are levied
once the package reaches the specified destination. Any
additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you and
we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what
they may be.
Within our there is a Fuel Surcharge. This surcharge is
changed by DHL monthly and can be seen on DHL's website
athttp://www.dhl.co.uk/en/express/shipping/shipping_advice/fuel_surcharge.html.
We update for the new Fuel Surcharge each month, therefore all
international postage charges will change slightly month to
month.

us by email or phone, details are on our home page.

Our third party carriers may not be able to deliver to certain

time that they are able to deliver to you.
