SHIPPING & DELIVERY

Shipping, Delivery & Customs Policy

Everything you need to know about UK delivery, international shipping, click & collect, customs duties, returns and how to reach us.

UK & International Delivery

Delivery options, carriers and free UK shipping threshold

UK Delivery Options

We ship via Royal Mail, DPD, UPS, DHL and other reliable networks. Standard, Expedited and Next-Day options are available where the service is offered by the carrier for your postcode. Service level and price are shown at checkout based on your basket and delivery address.

Note: Northern Ireland, Scottish Highlands and Islands may require an additional 1–2 working days and may not be eligible for Next-Day services.

International Delivery

We ship worldwide via UPS, DHL, FedEx, DPD and Royal Mail International. Express and economy options are available depending on destination and item class. Some medical devices may require specific carriers or additional documentation — our team will advise if this applies to your order.

Free UK Delivery

Free UK delivery is available on qualifying orders — check the cart or product page for the current threshold. It is applied automatically at checkout; no discount code is required. For orders below the threshold, shipping is calculated based on weight, dimensions and destination.

Signature & ID Requirements

Some medical device shipments require an adult signature or ID verification at delivery due to carrier or regulatory requirements. You will be notified at checkout if this applies to your order.

Processing & Dispatch Times

Cut-off times, stocked and special order items

Dispatch Cut-Off

Orders placed Monday to Friday before 12:00 noon (UK time) are usually dispatched the same day. Orders placed after this cut-off, over weekends, or on UK public holidays are dispatched the next working day.

Stocked Items

"In Stock" on our website indicates physical availability at our Leeds depot (LS12 4HP). These items are prepared and dispatched promptly after payment verification. All inventory is held and dispatched from this single UK facility.

Bulk, Fragile or Special-Order Items

Large, fragile or bulky items (such as hospital beds, hoists or patient monitors) may require an extra working day for safe packaging and carrier coordination. Pre-order or special-order items will have an estimated dispatch date confirmed by email at the time of purchase.

Tracking & Delivery Windows

How to track your order and expected delivery timelines

I Missed My Delivery — What Should I Do?

Use the tracking link from your dispatch email to check the latest status. Most couriers will automatically attempt re-delivery or leave your parcel at a nearby collection point. You can usually rearrange delivery directly through the courier's tracking page. Email us at info@selfimed.com with your order number if you need further assistance.

Bring your order confirmation email and a photo ID. For business orders, also bring your company details (company name and registered address). Collections without prior appointment and correct documentation may not be fulfilled on the day.

Important: Our London address at 167–169 Great Portland Street, London W1W 5PF is a registered office for administration only. No stock is held there and no collections are possible at this address.

Customs, Duties & Taxes

Who pays, delivery terms, documentation and clearance

Who Pays Import Duties & Taxes?

All international orders are shipped on a DAP (Delivered At Place) basis. Import taxes, duties, customs clearance fees, and any local charges are not included in the product price or shipping cost and must be paid by the recipient upon import. The shipping carrier or customs authority may contact you to request payment or additional documentation — please respond promptly to avoid delays.

Customs Clearance & Documentation

We provide a commercial invoice and packing list with every shipment. Any permits, licences, or prescriptions required by your local authority remain the responsibility of the buyer. Local customs may request identification, tax numbers such as EORI or VAT, or additional documentation to clear medical equipment — this is a regulatory requirement outside of our control.

Before You Order Internationally

Important: Please check your local import regulations, medical device restrictions and any prescription requirements to ensure the product is legally permitted for import into your country before placing an order.

Refused, Unclaimed & Customs-Seized Shipments

What happens when a parcel cannot be delivered or is refused at customs

Returned to Sender

If a parcel is refused or returned to us in good, resalable condition (due to customs refusal, uncollected from depot, or address issues), we will refund the product price only. Original shipping costs, return freight, customs handling fees and any carrier fees are non-refundable and may be deducted from the refund.

Seized or Destroyed by Customs

If customs seize, abandon or destroy the parcel, no refund can be issued. Customers are responsible for ensuring medical items are permitted for import into their country before ordering.

International Returns After Delivery

If you return goods internationally after delivery, any import taxes or duties already paid are subject to your local authority's refund process. This varies by country and must be handled directly with your customs office. We can provide proof of export or return documentation where available.

Damage, Loss & Insurance

Reporting damaged or missing deliveries

Damaged on Arrival

If your item arrives damaged, please report it within 48 hours of delivery. Email info@selfimed.com with your order number, a description of the damage and clear photos. This is essential to enable us to raise a claim with the carrier and arrange a replacement or refund.

Tip: Photograph the outer packaging as well as the item before discarding any packaging — this significantly strengthens a damage claim.

Lost in Transit

If your tracking shows no movement for more than 5 working days (UK) or 10 working days (international) beyond the estimated delivery date, contact us and we will investigate with the carrier. Lost-in-transit claims are subject to carrier investigation timelines, which typically take 5–10 working days.

Address Accuracy & Restricted Destinations

Address changes, incorrect addresses and destinations we cannot ship to

Address Changes After Ordering

Address changes are possible only before dispatch. For security, we cannot reroute shipments once in transit. If you made an error, contact us immediately by phone or WhatsApp at +44 7802 644820 — do not rely on email alone for urgent pre-dispatch changes.

Incorrect Address Provided

If a parcel is returned to us because an incorrect address was provided at checkout, re-delivery will be arranged at the customer's cost. Any carrier surcharges for failed delivery attempts or address correction fees are also the customer's responsibility.

Restricted Destinations

We are unable to ship to destinations subject to UK or international trade sanctions, or where carriers do not operate services. If your country is not available at checkout, please contact us and we will advise on alternative arrangements where possible.
