📌 Important Note for Our Global Community
While MyVitalGlam prepays all mandatory sales taxes and strictly complies with international shipping guidelines, local customs authorities retain absolute jurisdiction over package inspections and clearance timelines. The recipient remains responsible for providing accurate delivery details and managing any custom clearing requirements unique to their country's border policies.
