International Orders
Hardware Nation ships around the globe. DHL, Fedex and UPS are our preferred carriers for international small package shipments. You may also elect to ship via USPS. The final delivery of USPS shipments will be by the post service of the destination country. Large shipments will be shipped by an international freight carrier using a Door-to-Door or Door-to-Airport service. Shipping fees are calculated on a combined basis of weight, shipment value (for insurance purposes) and destination.
All import customs, duties and taxes are the responsibility of the customer. Please provide your sales representative with any special shipping instructions as soon as possible after the order is placed. Please review our policies on international payment and international returns.
Shipping Destinations
Hardware Nation currently ships to all countries around the globe, with the exception of the following U.S. sanctioned countries: Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria.
Shipping Time
Many of our items are sourced from various distribution points across the country. For this reason, most international orders will be consolidated at our main Buford, GA warehouse prior to shipment. Please allow the possibility of a few extra days for transit.
Item Restrictions
Before completing your purchase, please check with your account manager to make sure you are choosing items that are compatible in your country. Also, please confirm that your country’s import rules and regulations will allow you to import the items you are purchasing.
Government or manufacturer restrictions may oblige us to block certain products from shipping outside the USA.
Multiple Orders
To avoid higher than normal shipping fees many of our customers elect to combine multiple orders into one shipment at our Buford, GA location. When combining multiple orders please allow the possibility of a few extra days for transit.
Attested Documents
Certain countries require accompanying documents to be attested by the chambers of commerce. If you need attested documents there will be a $50 USD fee per document requiring a signature.
Substitute Part Numbers
In order to prevent delays in customs and other unexpected issues we have established a strict policy on shipping only the exact part numbers ordered. If only a substitute part number is available we will notify the customer prior to shipping the order.
