Why is UPS charging me extra for shipping (Intl. Customers)?
Shipping charges for UPS are added to your bill automatically in our shopping cart. This is for the actual shipping of the item into your country only. Each country has its own “Import Duty”, “VAT”, and UPS Brokerage fee that may be added to your bill, and that may be due upon delivery. Please check with your local UPS office to learn more about these charges, and be prepared to pay that portion of the invoice when it arrives. If you choose not to pay the fees required by your local delivery, we will not refund your order.
Also, please note that other carriers besides UPS may have the same issue. We will work with you to find the best shipping option if you are purchasing a painting outside the U.S. Also, please note that international shipments take longer to deliver.
