International Shipping Policy
🌎 International Shipping Policy – Riders India
Last Updated: September 1, 2026
At Riders India, we aim to provide safe, reliable and trackable international shipping to customers in eligible countries. We carefully process and pack orders before dispatch and provide reasonable customer support throughout the shipping process.
International shipments are handled through third-party courier, logistics and airline partners. Some parts of international delivery are outside our direct control.
1. 🌍 International Shipping Availability
We offer international shipping to selected countries and serviceable locations.
Shipping availability may depend on:
-
Destination country
-
Postal/ZIP code
-
Courier serviceability
-
Product type
-
Product size and weight
-
Airline restrictions
-
Customs regulations
-
Import restrictions
-
Local delivery conditions
If a destination is not serviceable, we may contact the customer to discuss an alternative shipping option where reasonably possible.
2. 📦 Order Processing & Dispatch
We will try to process and dispatch international orders as soon as reasonably possible after successful payment and order verification.
Orders are normally processed within 1–2 business days, but processing may take longer during:
-
High-order periods
-
Holidays and festivals
-
Heavy order volume
-
Staff or operational issues
-
Product availability issues
-
Courier disruptions
-
Unexpected logistical circumstances
Orders placed after the applicable courier cut-off time may be processed on the next available business day.
Dispatch time and delivery time are different.
Dispatch means the parcel has been handed over to the courier. It does not guarantee delivery on a particular date.
3. 🚚 International Delivery Time
International delivery times are estimated and not guaranteed unless a specific delivery commitment has been expressly confirmed.
Delivery may be affected by:
-
Customs clearance
-
Import inspections
-
Airline schedules
-
Courier delays
-
Weather
-
Local holidays
-
Remote-area delivery
-
Government restrictions
-
Customs documentation
-
Natural events
-
International logistics disruptions
We will provide tracking information where available.
4. 📦 Standard & Express Shipping
Where available, customers may be offered different international shipping services.
Standard shipping is generally the economical option and may take longer.
Express shipping may be available for selected destinations and products and may involve additional charges.
Customers who require a product urgently should contact us before placing the order to confirm the available shipping service and estimated delivery time.
Even Express Delivery may be affected by customs, airline or other circumstances outside our control.
5. 🏠 Correct Delivery Address
Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate international delivery address.
Please carefully check:
-
Full name
-
House/Flat/Building number
-
Street
-
Area/Locality
-
City
-
State/Province
-
Postal/ZIP code
-
Country
-
Landmark, where useful
-
Primary mobile number
-
Alternate mobile number, where available
-
Email address
Customers should ensure that the provided contact details remain active during the delivery period.
An incorrect or incomplete address may result in delivery delays, additional charges or return of the shipment.
6. 📞 Customer Responsibility After Dispatch
After dispatch, customers should regularly monitor their tracking information and cooperate with the courier or local delivery authority when required.
Customers may need to:
-
Answer courier calls
-
Provide delivery directions
-
Confirm address information
-
Complete local delivery requirements
-
Provide customs information where required
-
Pay applicable duties or taxes
-
Collect the shipment if local collection is required
-
Respond to delivery attempts
-
Contact the local courier when tracking requires customer action
Riders India will provide reasonable assistance where possible, but we cannot manually track and follow up on every international shipment throughout its entire journey.
7. 🏠 Door Delivery
We will generally request door delivery to the customer's provided address where the courier offers this service.
However, actual delivery may depend on the destination country's courier network and local conditions.
The courier may sometimes require the customer to:
-
Collect the parcel from a local courier office
-
Visit a designated collection point
-
Provide additional information
-
Complete local customs or delivery formalities
Customers are requested to cooperate with the local courier where necessary.
8. 🛃 Customs, Duties & Import Taxes
International shipments may be subject to:
-
Customs duty
-
Import tax
-
VAT/GST or similar local taxes
-
Customs clearance charges
-
Brokerage fees
-
Handling charges
-
Storage charges
-
Other destination-country charges
Unless specifically stated otherwise at checkout, these charges are generally the customer's responsibility.
Customers should check the latest import rules and applicable taxes in their country before placing an order.
9. 💰 Shipping Charges, Taxes & Customs Rules May Change
International courier charges, fuel surcharges, customs duties, import taxes, VAT/GST, clearance fees and other applicable charges may vary from time to time.
Rates may change because of:
-
Courier pricing
-
Airline charges
-
Fuel surcharges
-
Currency fluctuations
-
Government regulations
-
Customs regulations
-
Destination-country tax rules
-
Changes in import/export requirements
-
Operational conditions
The shipping charge displayed at the time of ordering is based on the applicable shipping rate available at that time.
Government taxes, customs duties and destination charges are determined by the relevant authorities or service providers and may change without prior notice.
Riders India does not control changes made by courier companies, airlines, customs authorities or governments.
10. 🚫 Restricted & Prohibited Items
Certain products may not be permitted for international transportation, particularly by air.
Depending on the destination and shipping method, restrictions may apply to:
-
Liquids
-
Flammable materials
-
Hazardous substances
-
Certain batteries
-
Restricted goods
-
Prohibited items
-
Other products restricted by airlines or courier companies
If an ordered product cannot legally or operationally be shipped to the destination, we may contact the customer regarding an alternative product, shipping method or an eligible refund.
11. ✈️ Air Shipping Restrictions
Many international shipments are transported by air.
Airlines and courier companies may refuse products that do not meet applicable air-transport requirements.
Riders India may therefore:
-
Change the courier
-
Change the shipping method
-
Hold the shipment temporarily
-
Request additional information
-
Offer an alternative product
-
Cancel the shipment and process an eligible refund where applicable
12. 🔄 International Returns & Exchanges
⚠️ International Orders Are Generally Non-Returnable
Due to the high cost and complexity of international return shipping, customs procedures and cross-border logistics, international orders are generally not eligible for return or exchange for:
-
Change of mind
-
Incorrect size selection
-
Incorrect product selection
-
Compatibility issues
-
Personal preference
-
Change of requirement
Customers are strongly advised to check the product details and contact us for assistance before placing an order.
Nothing in this policy is intended to remove any mandatory consumer rights or remedies applicable under law.
13. 📏 Helmet & Jacket Size Responsibility
For helmets, jackets and other size-dependent products, customers should carefully check the applicable size chart before ordering.
Our team may provide size guidance when requested before dispatch.
However, the customer remains responsible for selecting the appropriate size.
International size-related returns or exchanges are generally not accepted because of the significant cost of international shipping.
14. 🪖 Product Compatibility
For products where compatibility is important, customers should contact us before placing the order.
Where reasonably possible, our team may assist with compatibility or suitability.
Customers should provide accurate information about their vehicle, product model or intended use when requesting guidance.
Final product selection remains the customer's responsibility unless we have specifically confirmed compatibility in writing.
15. 📹 Unboxing Video – Strongly Recommended
For all international orders, customers are strongly advised to record a continuous unboxing video before opening the package.
The video should clearly show:
-
All sides of the outer package
-
Shipping label
-
Condition of the package
-
Seals and protective packaging
-
The product while being removed
-
The complete product after opening
Please keep the original packaging until the product has been fully checked.
Unboxing evidence may be required when investigating a damaged, incorrect or defective product claim.
16. 📦 Damaged, Defective or Incorrect Product
If you receive a product that appears to be:
-
Damaged in transit
-
Defective
-
Incorrect
-
Significantly different from the product ordered
please contact us as soon as possible after delivery.
Provide photographs, unboxing video and order/tracking details where available.
We will review the matter and, where appropriate, work with the customer and courier/manufacturer to determine the available remedy.
Any replacement, refund or other remedy will be subject to the circumstances, applicable law and our applicable Return/Replacement Policy.
17. 📦 Manufacturer-Sealed Products
Some products are supplied in manufacturer-sealed packaging.
We may not open sealed manufacturer packaging before dispatch because we aim to provide customers with a new, sealed product.
Therefore, certain internal product conditions may not be identifiable before dispatch.
Where a genuine manufacturing defect or other covered issue is reported, we will assist the customer according to the applicable product/manufacturer terms and applicable law.
18. 🔄 Undelivered / Returned-to-Origin Shipments
An international shipment may be returned to origin because of:
-
Incorrect or incomplete address
-
Incorrect postal/ZIP code
-
Customer unavailable
-
Customer refusing delivery
-
Failure to collect the shipment
-
Failure to respond to courier requests
-
Customs clearance failure
-
Customer refusing to pay applicable duties/taxes
-
Import restrictions
-
Destination-country restrictions
-
Courier limitations
-
Failure to provide required information
If a shipment is returned to Riders India, we will review the circumstances before processing any eligible refund.
International shipping, return-to-origin (RTO), customs, handling and other logistics charges already incurred may be deducted from any refundable amount where permitted by applicable law.
19. 💳 Shipping Charges After Dispatch
Once an international shipment has been dispatched, the shipping service has been purchased and the parcel has entered the courier network.
Therefore, international shipping charges are generally non-refundable, including where the shipment is subsequently returned or undelivered because of customer-related reasons, customs issues, refusal, incorrect address or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Where applicable law requires a different remedy, the applicable legal rights will apply.
20. 🛡️ Shipping Insurance
For high-value international shipments, shipping insurance may be recommended or arranged where available.
Insurance coverage, claim limits and procedures depend on the insurer or courier.
Customers may be required to provide:
-
Unboxing video
-
Photographs
-
Packaging details
-
Shipping label
-
Proof of damage
-
Other documents required for the claim
Insurance does not automatically guarantee a refund or replacement.
21. 📦 Courier Changes
We may use the most suitable available courier or logistics partner depending on:
-
Destination
-
Product
-
Shipment weight
-
Shipping restrictions
-
Courier availability
-
Serviceability
-
Operational conditions
Where necessary, we may change the courier to another available service.
Our objective is to complete delivery safely and efficiently.
22. ❤️ Our Commitment
We understand that international customers place additional trust in us when ordering from India.
We will make reasonable efforts to:
✔ Pack products securely
✔ Dispatch orders promptly
✔ Provide tracking where available
✔ Assist with product and size guidance before dispatch
✔ Verify address information where required
✔ Assist with genuine delivery issues
✔ Communicate important order-related information
✔ Work towards a practical solution when a genuine issue occurs
However, international delivery depends on independent courier, airline, customs and destination-country systems that are outside our direct control.
We will always try to provide the best possible assistance while keeping the process fair for both the customer and the seller.
23. ⚖️ Applicable Law & Consumer Rights
Nothing in this policy is intended to exclude, restrict or override any mandatory rights or remedies available to customers under applicable law.
Where applicable law requires a refund, replacement, cancellation or other remedy, those rights will continue to apply.
This policy describes our standard international shipping procedures and should be read together with our other website policies.
