For orders shipped outside the United States, the billing and shipping address must be the same. Shipping will be provided via your choice of UPS or Global Express Mail through the United States Postal Service. Please use a valid street address, as we cannot ship to PO or APO boxes. International orders are not guaranteed to ship the next business day because additional verification is often necessary. UPS and the USPS state that most shipments are delivered within 4-5 business days. However, some shipments may take up to 3 weeks to arrive. Please allow time for your package to clear customs. This may take from a couple of days to several weeks.

We are able to ship to countries other than those listed above. Such orders cannot be processed on line, but you may email, fax or phone in your order. We recommend faxing or phoning in your credit card number; for security purposes, email is not advised. Please contact us at customerservice@nationaljeancompany.com. International shipping fees range from $20 - $135 USD, depending on the country you live in, the shipping service you select, and the weight of your package. If you exchange an item, you will be responsible for shipping charges that apply to the reshipment of the item.

Customs Duties and Other Fees

Please note that shipping charges do not include taxes or duty. The customer is solely responsible for any customs duties, foreign taxes or other fees that his/her country may impose to take delivery of his/her order. In order to comply with export regulations, we are required by U.S. law to declare the exact value of all items ordered and to mark them as dutiable "merchandise." Declaring less than the true value is both a violation of American law and the laws of most other countries. In addition, we could lose the right to export to your country should it ever be discovered that we were misrepresenting the value. Because we are a retailer, we are prohibited by law from marking your order as "gift," even if the order is intended as a gift by its recipient. Call your local customs office for details about these charges.

RETURNS

If you are not satisfied with your online purchase, please follow our guidelines for returns:

All returns require a Return Authorization (RA) number (see instructions below).
All returns must be postmarked within 14 days of receipt. Returns sent after this time will not be honored.
The merchandise must be in its original condition with ALL TAGS ATTACHED and unworn (that would be gross).
Shoes must be returned with the box in their original condition, without any added postage stickers, etc.
We do not refund shipping charges.
We do not accept returns/exchanges on custom-made or special order items, undergarments, jewelry, or sale merchandise. These types of sales are final.
We are not responsible for damages that occur during care of an item, such as dry cleaning, washing or wear.

Please be advised that items that do not conform to the above guidelines are not returnable. They will be returned to you at your expense.

Damaged/Incorrect Items

If you receive an item that is defective, damaged or incorrect, you must notify us via email within 5 business days of receiving the merchandise. Please keep the original box and packaging materials in the case of damage. We'll email you a UPS label for returning the merchandise. A replacement will be sent, if available, upon receipt - as long as it hasn't been used, worn or washed. All tags must remain attached.

Exchanges

If you would like to exchange an item for another color or size, email us or call 1.866.NAT.JEAN (1.866.628.5326) to ensure that the new item is available. If we have the item, we will hold it for you until your return is received. We will only accept returns for exchange if they meet all criteria for an acceptable return (see above). Please make sure to note the exchange on the return form. We will ship the exchange to you at our expense (does not apply to international orders).

How to Return Merchandise

A Return Authorization (RA) number issued by nationaljeancompany.com must accompany all returns. To obtain an RA number, request one online or feel free to call Customer Service at 1.866.NAT.JEAN. Fill out the RA form and include it in the package. If you don't have a form, include a note with your RA#, name, address, phone number, email address and reason for return. (Please note that being issued an RA number does not guarantee automatic approval/credit of your return. Items are still subject to inspection.) Ship the merchandise securely wrapped, pre-paid and insured to:

National Jean Company
Attn: Internet Returns
7250 Woodmont Ave
Suite 330
Bethesda, MD 20814
RA # _____________

Tips on sending the perfect return package:

Send via UPS or insured parcel post for proof of delivery. If your return package is lost, we are not responsible for reimbursement or compensation for the lost merchandise.
No COD (Cash/Check on Delivery) packages will be accepted.
Note your RA number on the package for proper and timely handling and processing.
Include a completed RA form with the merchandise. Otherwise processing will be delayed.
Package your return carefully, as we cannot return or exchange items that arrive damaged due to poor packaging.

Your return will be processed within 2-3 business days of receipt. We will issue a refund to the credit card originally used for the purchase. You will receive an email notice when the credit has been issued. If you have an inquiry, call 1.866.NAT.JEAN (1.866.628.5326) or e-mail us at customerservice@nationaljeancompany.com.

International Returns

The customer is responsible for all duties or taxes. If you return an item or refuse an item and we are charged a tax, that duty or tax amount will be deducted from your order total before we credit your account.
