Buying a handmade rug from India: delivery, import duty and returns, explained

An explainer for design-minded home buyers in India, the US and the UK deciding whether to order a made-to-order rug shipped from India. It restates four RS LIVING policy pages as tables and a pre-order checklist: free shipping, estimated production times, who pays import duty (the customer, on delivery, as the policy states), official tariff sources for six destinations, the UK and EU custom-size rule, the 3-day fault service and the statutory rights the source summarises. Page dates run from 16 to 23 October 2026. It states no duty rates and is not legal advice or customs advice. Source: https://raheemandson.com/living/customs-duty-faq . Published by Raheem & Son.
