DUTIES

Any duties, if incurred, are the responsibility of the buyer. Encircled does not pay duties for customers, nor can we provide estimates on duties. In general, for US shipments, our products are typically exempt from duties as they are made in Canada, however there are exceptions that occur depending on the customs processing officer. For other countries, typically duties will be levied. Encircled does accurately mark the package with appropriate documentation to help expedite the customs process.

PRE-ORDERS

Please note that if your order contains an item that is on pre-order, your entire package will ship as per the approximate pre-order ship date indicated on the product page regardless of which shipping service is chosen at checkout. Please place your orders separately if you require non pre-order items to arrive ahead of the pre-order item.

Please note: Our order cutoffs are based on the carrier’s shipping deadlines, plus time required to fulfill your order from our studio. Encircled will ensure your order is shipped in enough time to meet the carrier’s shipping deadlines. However, we cannot be held responsible for postal delays. Where possible, please place your order in plenty of time ahead of our cutoff dates in order to ensure timely delivery.

(Please note, customers outside of the US/Canada will be provided with a $15 shipping credit).

Ship credits are a maximum of $100 for a one year period.

Can I track my return?

When will I receive my refund?

We aim to process returns within 10 days of receipt at Encircled, however during busy periods this may take longer. Generally, it takes 3-5 business days for your refund to appear on your statement.

How will I receive my refund?

We'll refund your item or order to your original payment method, excluding any outbound ship fees (which are non-refundable), and the pre-paid return label fee (if applicable). Refunds can only be made to the original purchaser’s payment method on file with us. 

It’s been more than 30 days. Can I still return my item?

As we're a small batch fashion company, cycling our inventory is crucial. We cannot accept returns outside of the 30-day window of receipt of your order.

We do not accept returns outside of our Return Policy, however, in special circumstances when an exception to a return outside of the policy is made, an $20 restocking fee will be applicable per return.
