This Shipping & Delivery Policy explains how PAPAPIAWORLD.COM processes and delivers orders placed through our website.

By placing an order with PAPAPIAWORLD.COM, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of this Shipping & Delivery Policy.


1. SHIPPING AVAILABILITY

PAPAPIAWORLD.COM accepts orders from customers in India and from customers in eligible international destinations.

International shipping availability may depend on the destination country, courier availability, customs restrictions, import regulations, and other applicable requirements.

We reserve the right to decline or cancel an order where delivery to the requested destination is not reasonably possible.


2. SHIPPING CHARGES

Orders Within India

Shipping charges for deliveries within India are:

₹0 — FREE SHIPPING

There are no additional shipping charges for standard domestic delivery unless a specific product or promotional offer states otherwise.

International Orders

For orders delivered outside India, the international shipping charge is:

₹4,000 INR per order

The applicable international shipping charge will be displayed or communicated during the ordering process, where applicable.

Any customs duties, import taxes, local taxes, clearance fees, or other charges imposed by the destination country may be payable by the customer unless expressly stated otherwise by PAPAPIAWORLD.COM.


3. PAYMENT TERMS

PAPAPIAWORLD.COM accepts prepaid orders only.

Cash on Delivery (COD) is not available.

Orders must be successfully paid for before they are processed for shipment.

An order will generally not be dispatched until the payment has been successfully received and verified.


4. ORDER PROCESSING

After successful payment, PAPAPIAWORLD.COM will process the order for dispatch.

Orders are generally processed within the timeframe communicated on the website or at the time of purchase.

Processing times may vary depending on:

  • Product availability

  • Order volume

  • Verification of payment

  • Public holidays

  • Weekends

  • Operational circumstances

  • Unforeseen events

Processing time and shipping/transit time are separate.

The delivery estimate does not necessarily include the time required to process and prepare an order before dispatch.


5. DELIVERY TIME

Delivery times vary depending on the delivery destination, courier service, customs procedures, weather conditions, and other circumstances beyond our control.

Domestic Orders — India

Orders within India are shipped using available courier/logistics services.

The estimated delivery period may vary depending on the customer's location and the courier network.

International Orders

International orders may require additional time due to:

  • International transit

  • Customs clearance

  • Import procedures

  • Destination-country regulations

  • Courier delays

  • Local delivery conditions

Any delivery timeframe displayed on PAPAPIAWORLD.COM is an estimate and should not be treated as a guaranteed delivery date unless expressly stated otherwise.


6. CUSTOMS, DUTIES & IMPORT TAXES

International shipments may be subject to customs duties, import taxes, VAT/GST, tariffs, brokerage fees, clearance charges, or other charges imposed by the destination country.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, these charges are not included in the product price or the ₹4,000 international shipping charge.

The customer is responsible for complying with applicable import laws and for paying any applicable customs duties, taxes, or other destination-country charges.

PAPAPIAWORLD.COM does not control the customs authorities of the destination country and cannot guarantee that an international shipment will be cleared without additional charges or delays.


7. CUSTOMS DELAYS

International shipments may be delayed because of customs inspections, documentation requirements, import restrictions, or other procedures imposed by the destination country.

Such delays are outside the direct control of PAPAPIAWORLD.COM.

A customs delay does not automatically constitute a failure by PAPAPIAWORLD.COM to deliver the order within the estimated delivery timeframe.

Customers may be required to provide additional information or documentation to the courier or customs authorities.


8. CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY FOR DELIVERY INFORMATION

Customers are responsible for providing accurate and complete delivery information when placing an order.

This includes:

  • Full name

  • Complete delivery address

  • Any other information required for delivery

PAPAPIAWORLD.COM is not responsible for delays, failed deliveries, returns to origin, or additional charges resulting from incorrect, incomplete, or outdated information provided by the customer.


9. DELIVERY ATTEMPTS

The courier or delivery service may make one or more delivery attempts according to its own policies.

If the customer is unavailable, refuses delivery, fails to provide required information, does not pay applicable customs/import charges, or otherwise prevents delivery, the shipment may be delayed, returned to the sender, held by the courier, or disposed of in accordance with the courier's applicable procedures.

Any additional charges arising from such circumstances may be the customer's responsibility where applicable.


10. TRACKING

Where tracking information is available, PAPAPIAWORLD.COM may provide the customer with shipment tracking details.

Tracking information is provided by the applicable courier or logistics provider and may take some time to become active after dispatch.

PAPAPIAWORLD.COM is not responsible for inaccuracies, temporary unavailability, or delays in third-party tracking information.

Any resolution will depend on the circumstances, courier procedures, and applicable law.
