Shipping updates

1 August 2022 - New shipping rate to the UK

Customs and Duties Charges

International orders MAY be subject to local charges.

Customs policies vary widely, with customs or import duties being charged once the order reaches its destination country. Because of this, VR Cover unfortunately cannot be held responsible for any additional charges. Please be aware of any additional fees your local customs office may charge before placing your order as we cannot mark your orders as a gift to bypass customs.

If additional fees apply for your package, they are usually collected by your local postal service provider, so check their tracking page or contact them directly for advice on payment. Beware of phishing scams that claim to be the postal service asking for payment.

 

Tracking and Delivery 

We will send you emails to confirm your order and notify you when your order has shipped. 

Order Confirmation Email

Frequently Asked Questions

What is my tracking number? The tracking information is included in the automated shipping notification. Be sure to check your spam folder in case it has ended up there.

Where can I check the tracking? The shipping notification email has a clickable link that will take you to the tracking page on sites such as https://vrcover.aftership.com/, Deutsche Post, DHL or GLS. As your local postal service provider is the last mile carrier, you can also look up delivery updates on their website with the same tracking number.

Why am I not seeing tracking updates? Packages are picked up daily by the carrier but they are not scanned upon collection. There will be several days between updates as the packages wait in queue at their facility for departure to the destination country. The carrier can open an investigation if the tracking does not update for 14 consecutive days, so please reach out to us when that happens and we will help submit a formal enquiry to them. In the meantime, we ask that you give it a bit more time and continue to check back the tracking page for an update. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
