What is Bare Necessities' return policy for international orders?
We want you to love your purchase! If for any reason you are not satisfied with your purchase please review the following steps. We do not offer exchanges on international orders, only returns. The customer is responsible for the return shipping cost. You will be credited for the returned items and taxes. Initial shipping charges are non-refundable.
1. Email our customer support team at intl@BareNecessities.com, indicating your Bare Necessities order number, a description of the item you wish to return and the reason for return.
2. Once an RMA is submitted on your behalf you will receive a RETURN MERCHANDISE AUTHORIZATION email from Borderfree where we will provide you with further instructions on where returns should be shipped and the amount you will be refunded.
3. Follow the DHL return instructions on the RETURN MERCHANDISE AUTHORIZATION email from Borderfree. The customer is responsible for the return shipping cost.
4. Once your merchandise is received at the Bordefree returns facility and is verified, we will process your credit within 5-10 business days. You will receive a RETURN PROCESSED email at that time.
Please note that it may take up to two billing cycles for the credit to appear on your monthly statement. Your statement will show a credit from BF*BareNecessities. Some statements may also show the city name of the Borderfree billing exchange office for your region.

I want to exchange for Instant Credit. How does that work?
In our Online Returns & Exchanges process, you may elect to receive your refund as an Instant Credit Voucher that you can use immediately to place your exchange order. Instant Credit Vouchers are valid for a limited time. Any unused balance on an Instant Credit Voucher will be issued as a refund in accordance with our standard refund policy when our returns center receives your merchandise.
Instant Credit may be offered as a refund option on U.S. orders of $500 or less. Only one Instant Credit Voucher can be created per order. If the order was purchased using an Instant Credit Voucher, subsequent exchanges or returns will not be offered as an Instant Credit Voucher. In using an Instant Credit Voucher as payment, you are waiving your right to receive that amount of your refund back to your original payment method. Bare Necessities may, at its sole discretion, deny Instant Credit as a refund option to a customer.
