- on request products can be sent by courier 

- customers may also order products which are not yet available. The order will be held as pending and fulfilled when the product becomes available. 

- In exceptional circumstances the delivery time may extend beyond the timetable above because products have to be sought from alternative warehouses.

Postage Costs

-  Brepols undertakes to minimise costs of shipment

-  Brepols only charges you the actual cost of the postage

-  Therefore we can guarantee that no customer will pay more than the official prices stipulated by the Belgian Postal Service.

for delivery within the European Union and Switzerland	5,21 Euro
to the rest of the world (incl. USA, CND, AUS, JPN)	8,05 Euro

 

Taxes and Duties

- for deliveries to all customers within the European Union (EU)

VAT (TVA - Mwst) will be charged according to EU cross-border regulations
(that is, individuals currently pay 6% on books and 21% on electronic media)

- for deliveries to customers outside the European Union:

VAT is not chargeable but national (import) duties or GSTs will be applied where necessary;
In this case they will be charged through a local customs agent (usually the Post Office or another courier).
