Important Info for International Orders
I want your experience with Magic Alchemy to be smooth and sacred and not disrupted by unexpected customs charges. Because of how my store is currently set up, I cannot yet collect import VAT for all countries at checkout.
If you’re outside the UK and purchasing a physical item shipped by me (journals, notepads or art prints), you may be asked to pay customs or VAT when your parcel arrives.
🌍 Country-by-Country Summary
| Country | Import Charges | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 🇬🇧 United Kingdom | No | Local orders. |
| 🇺🇸 USA | No (under $800) | No fees under $800 USD. |
| 🇪🇺 European Union | Yes (~20%) | Use Etsy to avoid fees. |
| 🇨🇦 Canada | Yes (~13–15%) | Use Etsy to avoid fees. |
| 🇦🇺 Australia | No (under $1000 AUD) | No fees under $1000 AUD. |
| 🇳🇿 New Zealand | No (under $1000 NZD) | No fees under $1000 NZD. |
Your Two Options if You're in the EU, Canada, or Over the Thresholds Above
- Order here on MagicAlchemy.co.uk
You'll be supporting me directly. But your country may apply customs fees after shipping. - Order on Etsy
Etsy automatically includes VAT/customs using the IOSS system. All Circle of Light discount codes also work on Etsy using the same code. If there's a product not listed there, message me on Instagram or email hello@magicalchemy.co.uk.
I’m working behind the scenes to solve this long-term.
Until then, I just want you to know what to expect — no surprises.
This only applies to physical items shipped by me: Journals, Notepads, and Art Prints.
All digital items, Amazon-fulfilled products, and Circle of Light content are not affected.
If you have any questions or concerns then please message me directly on Instagram or email hello@magicalchemy.co.uk.
Love and Light,
Marie
