What DDP means:
Delivered Duty Paid = we handle all import duties and taxes upfront, so your order arrives cleared through customs with nothing extra to pay.
SPECIAL IMPORT POLICY – USA CUSTOMERS
We are delighted to offer a special service for our American clients:
-
The full 10% US import duty is automatically included at checkout

Parkin & Gerrish pays this directly to US customs on your behalf
-
This means your parcel arrives with no surprise duty bills on delivery

If any duty is charged in error, simply send us the invoice and we will reimburse you immediately
✨ Antique pieces (over 100 years old) remain exempt from US duty but not the 10% import duty sadly.
