Q: Can the e-Shop ship internationally?
A: We do ship internationally. International Shipments can take from 2 to 4 weeks. Please be advised that, as the customer/buyer, you are responsible for any VAT, tariff, duty, taxes, handling fees, customs clearance charges, and any other related expenses required by your country for importing consumer goods. The Aga Khan Museum Shop does not collect these fees beforehand, and cannot provide an estimate of the cost because they vary widely around the world. We recommend that you research to determine the requirements for customs clearance and additional costs. Orders may be exchanged for various reasons, such as non-payment of tariffs, incorrect address, and not being claimed at the post office in a timely manner. If a package is exchanged or rejected, you will be contacted and will have to pay for re-shipment postage.
Q: What do I do if I don’t receive my order or have other shipping-related questions?
A: Please email retail@agakhanmuseum.org.
Q: If I wish to exchange an item, what do I do?
A: We hope that you enjoy your purchase. However, if not completely satisfied, you may exchange the item(s) for an item of equal or greater value at our Museum Shop, either in person at the Aga Khan Museum or via mail. Please note that you will bear all costs associated with shipping item(s) for exchange as well as any shipping charges incurred for the exchanged item. Shipping charges incurred with product purchases are also non-refundable.
All product tags must be attached to the item(s) for exchange, and the product must neither be worn nor used. It must also be in its original packaging. Please note that a receipt or gift receipt must be accompanied with merchandise for exchange. We will honour a 15-day exchange policy.
Please note, all sale/clearance items are final sale.
Q: Are there any items that can’t be exchanged?
A: We cannot process exchanges for jewellery and any items that do not have their original product tags. We also cannot process exchanges for items that have been worn or used.
Q: How are shipping costs calculated?

The Aga Khan Museum Shop does not collect these shipping costs and related tariffs and fees beforehand. We cannot provide an estimate of the cost because they vary widely around the world.

Q: How will I know if my order has been correctly placed?

In general, please allow 4-5 business days for processing time. If we anticipate a longer lead time, it will be noted in the item description. We do not guarantee delivery or shipment dates. Orders are shipped to the delivery address noted in the customer order.
