What if I’m contacted by Customs or DHL?

Sometimes the carrier may contact you to confirm your address, schedule a delivery time, or — for U.S. customers — request a Social Security number. Please respond promptly to avoid delays.

If you are shipping to a country where duties and taxes are prepaid and are asked to pay additional charges, do not pay. Instead, refuse the charges and contact ZULU & ZEPHYR at orders@zuluandzephyr.com for assistance.
