No products, real or replica offered by Skulls Unlimited require paperwork of any kind, as long as they are shipped to an American address. The fees below apply only to shipments leaving the United States.
Replica products do not require any clearance from the United States and will be shipped without any additional fees.
Please be aware that on all International Orders, shipping charges and fees may vary depending on the items requested, their weight, and destination.
Customers are responsible for all customs fees charged by their country. This may involve being required to pay the delivery person when your package is delivered. If an item does need to be returned, it should be sent so that no customs fees are charged to Skulls Unlimited. This can be done by telling the shipper that the order is a return for replacement (or that the item is damaged). If customs fees are billed to Skulls Unlimited your return will be refused.
Special Considerations about Placing International Orders for Real Wild Animal Products.
Wild Animal Products require inspection by U.S. Fish & Wildlife Services (USFWS) for export from the United States.
International orders for these items are gladly accepted. There are certain fees to be expected when we export your order. United States law requires every fish and wildlife product must leave the country through a designated port for inspection. The closest USFWS designated port to Skulls Unlimited is Dallas,Texas. There will be a transportation fee assessed to you in order to get your shipment to Dallas inspection, normally about $75.00.
All parcels containing real animal products most often also need a U.S. Dept of Agriculture Export certificate at the cost of $51.00. This form often allows easy clearance of real animal products into your country.
The USFWS has an inspection fee of $93.00 to clear your shipment.
Once the parcel is cleared by USFWS, the parcel would need to ship by a bonded freight forwarder. Estimated shipping charges will vary and you will be contacted to approve shipping charges before shipping.
Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna (CITES)
Unfortunately, items that are CITES are unable to be exported out of the United States.
