PAYABLE DUTIES & TAXES FOR ITEMS SHIPPED TO EL SALVADOR<\/h2>\n

El Salvador does not have a duty free allowance for imports. Taxes are payable upon delivery of the package to El Salvador, not when they are sent from your virtual mailing address or your virtual mailing addresses. As a result, the value of all goods is taxable and is required for the overall package forward shipment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

ShipByMail Promise<\/h3>\n

If your purchased goods arrive to ShipByMail virtual mail addresses in Canada in substandard condition, we will notify you and pause the shipment: this way, you won\u2019t pay duties on products that have to be returned\/exchanged with the original provider.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
