If you would like to pay by a bank wire transfer, choose this payment option during the checkout process. Once you have completed this process and confirmed your order, we will send you an order confirmation to the e-mail address you have registered with all the necessary information needed to complete the bank transfer.

It usually takes a few business days until the payment has reached our account, and we will process and ship your order as soon as our bank has confirmed your payment. It is very important that you pay all bank transfer fees at your end, and that you pay using the currency you selected when placing your order so that the complete order amount is being credited to us. If we don’t receive the full order amount, we will have to reduce your order to the equaling product value and add an additional handling fee. If you are experience problems making an international bank transfer that in any way hinders the full amount to reach our account, please contact your bank for help.

Please enter the bank transfer reference number that you receive with your order confirmation as payment purpose/memo when making the payment. This is needed so that we can match your payment with your order.

Make sure to select SHA or OUR as wire options, as we will reduce your order if we are being billed wire transfer costs other than those taken by our bank.

Your order will be activated, processed and shipped once your payment has been confirmed by our bank.

IMPORTANT: If an order remains unpaid for more than 14 days, it will be cancelled and removed from our system.

What can you tell me about custom duties, import regulations, taxes and fees?
Please note that your delivery may be subject to import duties, taxes and other fees that are levied once the goods reach the country of destination. Any such costs are to be paid by the buyer in addition to the purchase price as quoted in the order confirmation.

Some countries have limited or prohibited the import of tobacco products or require additional documentation, such as an import license or permit. As the buyer, it is your responsibility to provide all necessary paperwork for custom clearance.

SnusExpress.com is not able to provide any information regarding customs restrictions or procedures in your country. As an importer of the goods purchased, you are personally responsible for obtaining specific information on import and customs requirements. You can consult with customs employees that will advise and give information to the importer about detailed customs rules. Custom regulations do change from time to time, so we recommend you to check your country’s legislation very carefully even though this might be time consuming. In the end, it will help you to avoid preventable delays or other problems.

Your package will not be released by customs if you refuse to pay the applicable charges. SnusExpress will not issue a refund or send replacement products, even if the package is being returned to us. Due to the nature of smokeless tobacco products and nicotine pouches, we cannot restock nor resell them once they have been dispatched from our warehouse. This also applies if you do not collect a shipment in time, or if the order is being stopped by customs due to a violation of the import regulations in the destination county.

If you have any questions regarding import rules and fees regarding the import of smokeless tobacco products and nicotine pouches, please contact customs authorities or the postal service in the destination country.

Please keep in mind that shipments might be subjected to opening and examination by customs authorities. As an importer of the goods, it is very important that you comply with the regulations and laws of your destination country, fulfill any requests made by customs authorities and to provide any documents that might be requested.

SnusExpress.com cannot be held liable for the receipt, whereabouts, refund or replacement of any shipments being delayed, held or destroyed by customs authorities.

Can I return my ordered products to you?
Since snus, nicotine pouches and other smokeless tobacco products are perishable products who cannot be re-sold once they have been shipped once, we can unfortunately not accept any products returns. This applies to orders where you by mistake have chosen the wrong product(s), as well as cases where you have changed your mind after the order has entered the shipping process.
