What happens if my order is returned to Yamazaki Home Europe?

If your package is returned to us due to Yamazaki's responsibility, we will reship it to you at no additional cost or issue a full refund for your order.
However, if the return is due to the customer's responsibility (e.g., refusing delivery or not collecting the package from a pickup point), we will require payment for the reshipping cost. Please note that if we are unable to contact you, or if you choose to cancel the order, the return shipping cost will be deducted from your refund.

For oversized items (e.g. TOWER Console Table with Shelf (SKUs 2028/9)), the 25€ overweight shipment fee will be charged again if you choose to have the order resent.
If you decide to cancel the order instead, a 35€ return processing fee, as well as the original shipping cost, will be deducted from your refund.

Please ensure to check your spam or junk folders for any emails related to order updates.

Your order number can be found in your shipping confirmation email. If you have an account with us, you can also find it by logging into your account on our website.

Can I modify or cancel my order after it’s placed?

If you need to cancel or modify your order, please contact us directly through the contact form at the bottom of this page. While we will do our best to accommodate your request, cancellations or changes cannot be guaranteed, as we process and ship orders as quickly as possible.

If I place multiple orders shortly after one another, will they be shipped together? Also, can they be shipped on a pallet?

If you place multiple orders in a short period of time, we will contact you via email or phone to confirm if we can combine your orders. If we do not receive a response, we may use our discretion to ship the orders together. For larger quantities of items, we may opt for pallet shipping.

Order Issues
What should I do if my order arrives damaged or defective?

Although damage or defects are uncommon, if your item arrives with any issues, we will arrange for a replacement.

To assist us in resolving the issue, please contact us through the form at the bottom of this page, providing the following details:

- your order number
- the item name or number
- a photo of the item, and if possible, the parcel box and packaging

In many cases, issues can be easily resolved during assembly. We are working on providing clearer instructions in English, and in the meantime, our team is available to help you troubleshoot and resolve any issues.

Important Note: If you return a damaged or defective item without informing us in advance, we will not be able to issue a refund, as responsibility for the damage cannot be determined.

What should I do if my tracking shows "delivered" but I haven't received my package?

If your tracking number indicates that the package has been delivered, please allow 24–48 hours for it to arrive. Carriers sometimes mark packages as delivered before they actually arrive.

If the package has not been received after a few days, please reach out to us, and we will work to resolve the issue.

What should I do if an item is missing from my order?

If any items are missing from your order, please contact us through our "Contact Us" form. Provide your order number and details of the missing item(s), and we will assist you in resolving the issue.

What should I do if I received items I didn't order?

If you receive items you did not order, please contact us using the "Contact Us" form and provide the following details:

- Full name
- Order number
- Photos of the incorrect item(s)

We will work promptly to resolve the issue and ensure the correct item(s) are shipped to you as soon as possible.

What if my tracking status is not updating?

If your package is in transit to your destination country, please allow additional time for the next status update.

If there has been no update for 15 days, please contact us through our "Contact Us" form for assistance.

What if my package is sent back to you?

If your package is returned to us due to delivery issues, we will contact you via email and phone to verify your address and arrange for reshipment. If we are unable to reach you, or if you no longer wish to receive the package, we will issue a refund for the cost of the items only.

Replacement Parts
Do you provide replacement parts for your products?

In many cases, replacement parts are available. However, please note that we may not be able to fulfill every request, as we do not carry every part for all items.

When submitting a request via our "Contact Us" form, please include as much detail as possible, such as:

- Item name (or a link to the product)
- Color
- Part number(s)
- Quantities required
- Where the item was purchased
- Date of order
- Shipping address

What should I do if I purchased from another retailer?

We will make every effort to honor replacement part requests, even if the order was placed with another retailer.

However, if the part is unavailable and further action is needed, we may ask that you contact the retailer directly for assistance.

Returns
What are the conditions for returning a product?

You have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your parcel(s).

To initiate a return, please contact us through our "Contact Us" form, selecting the "Return" category. Follow the instructions provided to complete the process.

Important Note: If you receive a damaged or defective item, please notify us as soon as possible. Returns made without prior notice may not be eligible for a refund, as we may be unable to determine responsibility for the damage.

We kindly ask that all items are returned in good condition. Please ensure each item is well-protected for shipping. We recommend using the original outer box, but if it is too large or unavailable, please place the original product packaging inside a sturdy outer box for protection during transit.

For UK returns, please contact us to receive a return label. The label will cover shipping and duty costs, but the cost of the label will be deducted from your final refund. Due to the complexities of UK-EU import/export duty and customs clearance, return shipping costs can be high, typically starting at 20€, depending on the size and weight of the package.

When will I receive my refund?

Once we have received and inspected your returned item(s), your refund will be processed within 14 days. The reimbursement will be issued to the original payment method used for your order. If you return your entire order, the original shipping costs will also be refunded.

Refunds are issued in the same currency as your original payment, unless otherwise agreed upon with Yamazaki Home Europe.

Please note:
- You are responsible for the return shipping costs—Yamazaki Home Europe does not provide prepaid return labels.
- If returned items arrive damaged due to improper packaging or handling, a fee may be deducted from your refund to cover the costs.
