We can sometimes reduce the total shipping price by using methods other than our UPS account. For example, UPS has only Express Mail to many of the Hawaiian Islands. If we have 2-3 weeks notice we can ship via U.S. Priority Mail for about 1/3 the cost. The same is true in Puerto Rico and the shipping time there is only 4-5 business days.
JetSetBabies is able to ship orders via U.S. Postal Service within the United States, to US Military bases around the world, and to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. When shipping to one of these destinations, please place your order approximately 2 weeks in advance. This allows enough time for your package to arrive safely, clear customs (where needed), and for us to verify that it is waiting for you. In some cases shipping US Priority mail to these destinations will be significantly less money than using UPS. If we have 2 weeks notice we can ship via U.S. Priority Mail for about 1/3 the cost. The same is true in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands and the shipping time there is only 4-5 business days.
Shipping to other areas of the world will be decided on a case by case basis and will REQUIRE the use of UPS International only. Place your order 3-4 weeks in advance using our secure order form. Please note that duty and taxes will apply when shipping to most countries outside of the continental U.S. Duty and taxes ranges from 5% to 30% of the total price of your order (including shipping). This fee will be collected by us prior to shipping your order and returned to you in cases where the fee is not applied by the customs agent. If there are additional costs that will apply, we will contact you prior to shipping your order.
We are unable to ship food and formula to some countries due to their restrictions. Other restrictions apply in various counties. We will notify of these circumstances as they arise.
Please call us (866.990.1811) if you have any questions about our international shipping policy. Or simply place your order so that we can see what items you wish to ship, and how much your package will weigh. In the comments box, type in "International Quote". We will contact you with a shipping quote before processing your order.
International shipping costs are expensive and in most cases shipping abroad will exceed $100, and depending on the weight of your package, shipping prices of $200 + are not uncommon. We are currently working with other baby supply companies in other countries to help you travel light without the expense of shipping from the US.
If you are traveling to Greece, Italy, Spain, France, United Kingdom, or Portugal we recommend that you also go to www.tinytotsaway.com and get a shipping quote from them as well as from us and compare. In these cases, you will likely save money by using Tiny Tots Away. All of the countries listed above do not allow the shipping of formula and food into the country, so using Tiny Tots Away will allow you the opportunity so purchase baby food for your destination. If you baby has any food sensitivities you may want to bring your own food with you rather than changing brands.
If you are traveling to Mexico, visit Lots For Tots located in Puerta Vallerta for your baby supplies. They also rent equipment and can help you out with cribs, strollers, and other products for your trip.
