My order is shipping outside of the United States. Will I be charged any additional fees?
Print book prices quoted exclude taxes and tariffs. If the destination country applies tariffs or taxes on print books, you may be required to pay the VAT or GST amount to the carrier who will advance that import VAT payment to the relevant authorities on your behalf. Any other applicable tariff, duty, taxes or customs clearance charges required by the destination country for importing consumer goods are your responsibility and will be charged to you by your carrier.
These costs are not determined or levied by Princeton University Press or by our distributors, Ingram Publisher Services and John Wiley. The costs are not negotiable and cannot be waived. Failure to accept those charges may result in non-delivery of your order and additional costs to return.
Shipping costs to European Union countries will include a standard 3.95 Euro charge to cover the cost of export declaration documentation. This is a pass-through cost from the carrier.
My books have not yet arrived. Who should I contact for more information?
Books will ship from one of our warehouses, so please direct any queries about delivery directly to them.
