At Eastanbul Food, we are committed to transparent and compliant handling of taxes for both domestic and international orders. Please review our policies below regarding sales tax, VAT, and exemptions.

1. U.S. Sales Tax

  • Sales tax is charged based on the shipping address and the applicable state and local tax laws.

  • The tax amount will be calculated and displayed at checkout.

  • Sales tax is applied to both product cost and shipping charges where required by law.

2. Tax-Exempt Customers

  • If you are purchasing for resale or otherwise exempt from sales tax, please submit a valid resale or exemption certificate before placing your order.

  • Email your documentation to info@eastanbulfood.com with your business name and order details.

  • We can issue a tax refund only if valid exemption documentation is received within 7 business days of the purchase.

3. International VAT & Import Duties

  • VAT, GST, customs duties, and import taxes are not included in the item price or shipping cost.

  • These charges are the responsibility of the recipient and are typically collected upon delivery by your local customs authority.

  • We recommend checking with your country’s customs office to understand the applicable fees before placing an international order.

  • We do not mark packages as gifts or under-declare the value of the shipment.
