Damage pack
If you have received a product with a damaged primary package, which includes torn, half-open, full-open, or broken seal packaging, we apologize for any inconvenience caused. Please follow the instructions below for a prompt resolution:
The primary package is the primary packing material that directly encloses and protects the product. The primary package may include boxes, envelopes, bags, or any other packaging specifically designed to protect the product.
For example, if you receive a shipment of delicate glassware, the primary package would be the sturdy box or container in which the glassware is securely packed. In this case, the primary package acts as a protective layer to prevent damage to the fragile items inside.
Verification Process: To ensure a proper resolution, we must conduct a verification process with our logistic partner. Please keep the following steps in mind:
Take clear and detailed images of the original packaging, highlighting the damage. These images will serve as proof and help us investigate the transit or handling issue with our logistic partner.
Timeframe: Once you have identified the damaged primary package, please get in touch with us immediately. We will initiate the resolution process promptly. However, additional delays may be expected due to the verification process with our logistic partner. Please log a return, refund, or exchange request within two days from the day the courier company marks the product as delivered. This two-day period will start from the day of delivery.

Customers need to be vigilant when receiving their deliveries. We request that customers be proactive and examine the condition of the primary package at the time of delivery. If any visible damage or mishandling are observed, we recommend informing the courier person immediately and noting the issue on the delivery receipt or any relevant documentation.
Notifying the courier person of any visible damage at the time of delivery, it helps create a record of the issue. It ensures that the necessary steps can be taken to address it promptly. This proactive approach will greatly assist us in resolving any potential issues related to the damaged primary package and ensure a smoother resolution process.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in being vigilant during the delivery process. Your cooperation will enable us to provide you with the best possible support and assistance in the event of a damaged primary package.

Change of Mind?
No Problem! Here’s How Returns, Refunds, or Exchanges Work.
We understand that preferences can change, and we want to ensure your satisfaction, even if it’s just a change of mind. You can return or exchange the product, but please remember that the shipping costs for the return and receiving will be your responsibility.
Timeframe: To expedite the process, please initiate a change of mind request within two days from when the courier company marks the product as delivered. This two-day period starts from the day of delivery.
To request a change of mind request (return or exchange), please reach out to us via email at info@upcountryflavors.com with the subject line: “Change of Mind – [order number] [return/ exchange].”
This will help us identify and prioritize your request.
To qualify for a return or exchange due to a change of mind, please adhere to the following guidelines:
Keep it pristine: The product must be unused, in its original condition, and still in its unopened packaging. We want it to be just as perfect as when it first arrived!
Shipping costs: If you require an exchange and order a new item, you will be responsible for covering the shipping and other associated costs, including duties and taxes in the origin and destination countries, for returning the product and receiving the exchanged item. We believe in transparency and want to keep you informed.
You must ship the items within seven days after we authorize the request via email, and please provide us with the tracking number via email within the same conversation where you reported the change of mind request. Please note that shipments not shipped within 7 working days that are refused will not be refunded.
If the value of the exchange item is higher than the original purchase, you will be required to pay the additional amount.
If the value of the exchange item is lower, we will issue a refund, and the refunded amount will be credited to the account or card used for the original payment within 7 to 10 working days.
We want you to be delighted with your purchase. While we allow returns and exchanges for change of mind, we kindly request that you carefully consider your choices before purchasing.

At upcountry flavors, we strive to provide exceptional customer service and ensure a smooth shopping experience. However, there are certain circumstances where we cannot accept returns, refunds, or exchanges. Please review the following scenarios:
Incorrect Address and Contact Details: We kindly request that you carefully verify your address and telephone number during the order process.

Recipient Unavailability: If you are unavailable to receive the Package upon delivery, the courier company will return the Package to us after a few attempts. To ensure successful delivery, please make arrangements to be available or provide an alternative delivery address where someone can receive the Package on your behalf. You can contact your local courier agent and request to extend the delivery deadline.
Refusing the Package for Duty and Taxes: We are not responsible for any duty and taxes applicable in your country. You are responsible for contacting us or your country’s customs authorities to obtain duty and tax charges information. If you refuse to pay the duty or taxes upon delivery, the courier company will return the Package to us after five working days.
Refusing the Package After the Order Cancellation Time: If you refuse to accept the Package at the time of delivery or after the order cancellation procedure, we regret to inform you that you are not eligible for our returns, refunds, or exchanges policy.

If you require assistance in checking the custom formalities before placing your order, please request the details from us, and we will do our best to provide the available information from our courier partners.
Final Sale or Non-Returnable Items: Certain items may be marked as “Non-Returnable”, or “Final Sale”. These items are not eligible for returns, refunds, or exchanges. It is important to carefully review the product description and specifications before purchasing.
