Shipping & Return Policy
After carefully analyzing increased shipping costs due to rising fuel prices, we are implementing a necessary change to our shipping policy. At this time, we will no longer be offering free shipping on orders which meet a certain dollar value - all orders below $15 will ship with a $5 flat rate and any orders above $15 will carry a $3 Shipping Surcharge. This change allows us to keep up with increased cost in distribution without compromising the quality you have come to expect from our teas. We are happy to continue our rewards program that allows redeeming your earned points for free shipping promotion codes. Please excuse any existing emails, or communications that still mention our free shipping policy as we update our channels.
Please be assured that Tea India has made every effort to keep this change to a minimum. We appreciate your trust in us, and we will always keep up with our standards. If you have a question, contact our support team at info@teaindia.com or call us at 1 (833) 832-4634 – we are always here to help. We value your business and thank you for your support of Tea India.
