Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or within the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped at your local customs and they might require you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
