Handling Time: Orders are typically dispatched within 2 to 3 business days following successful payment authorisation.
Shipping Origin: All consignments are officially dispatched from our internal warehouse facility located in Canada.

4. Customs, Duties, and Import VAT (DDU)
For shipments from Canada to Europe and the United States, the customer is recognised as the Importer of Record.
Import Obligations: Shipments may be subject to local Import VAT, customs duties, or administrative brokerage fees as determined by the destination country’s statutory authorities.
Recipient Responsibility: These charges are levied at the point of entry and remain the sole responsibility of the recipient.

We prioritises customer satisfaction and professional dispute resolution.
Guaranteed Response: We guarantee a formal response to all delivery-related enquiries within 24 hours.
Lost or Delayed Parcels: In the event of a transit delay exceeding our standard window, we will initiate a priority inquiry with the carrier. Should a parcel be confirmed as lost by the courier, we will provide an immediate re-dispatch or a full reimbursement of the purchase price.
Data Accuracy: It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure delivery information is accurate. Linenretreat cannot be held liable for delivery failures resulting from incorrect address data provided at checkout.
