I am based outside mainland France. Will there be any charges for importing my order?

Perles & Co products are delivered to the address indicated by the consumer on the invoice. Once the goods have arrived at their destination, the buyer assumes responsibility for them and must pay the relevant duties and taxes.

For overseas departments and territories:

> If you live in an overseas department (DOM), you are exempt from VAT, but you may be subject to dock dues. These taxes vary according to the nature of the products imported and the region.

> If you live in an overseas territory (TOM), you are exempt from VAT, but specific local taxes may apply.

For countries outside the EU:

> For orders shipped to countries outside the EU, you may have to pay customs duties.

> In addition to customs duties, the carrier may charge handling fees for customs clearance.

For EU countries:

> If your order is delivered to a European Union country, you will not have to pay any additional customs duties. Trade between EU member states is exempt from customs duties. Your order will therefore be processed and delivered without any additional customs charges.

I've enabled notifications, but I'm not receiving any.

There are three possible reasons, in order of frequency:

  • Your browser has been reinstalled, its data has been cleared, or the app has been uninstalled. In this case, the permission is lost: enable it again from My communications.
  • You have enabled notifications on the device, but no category is selected. These are two separate settings, and both are required.
  • Notifications are blocked in your browser settings. In this case, the page will let you know: you will need to allow them again in your browser, not on the website.

Each device must be set up separately: enabling notifications on your phone does not enable them on your computer.

Do I need to give my consent to receive them?

It depends on the category.

For Orders & stock alerts, no: these messages are part of a service you have requested — an order you placed or a stock alert you created. They are enabled when you activate notifications.

For Promotions & sales, yes: your consent is mandatory and explicit. This option is never pre-selected, and we will not send you any promotional offers unless you have enabled it yourself.

Was this answer helpful?

What notifications will I receive?

There are two categories, which you can select independently:

  • Orders & stock alerts — order confirmation, shipping and delivery updates, as well as notifications when products you are monitoring are back in stock.
  • Promotions & sales — occasional alerts about our best offers.

How are the prices calculated according to the quantities and the VAT rate?

On our website, prices are displayed including VAT by default.

However, the total amount is calculated using the unit price excluding VAT, with VAT then added to the result.

In mainland France, for products subject to 20% VAT, the calculation is as follows:

Unit price excluding VAT × 1.20 = Unit price including VAT

Here's an example:

An item displayed at €1.00 including VAT has an approximate unit price of €0.83 excluding VAT.

If you order 10 of the same item, the calculation may be as follows:

  • Unit price excluding VAT: €0.83

  • Quantity ordered: 10

  • Total excluding VAT: €0.83 × 10 = €8.30

  • VAT at 20%: €1.66

  • Total including VAT: €9.96

The total is therefore €9.96 rather than €10.00 including VAT.

Why does this difference occur?

It is due to the rounding rules applied to prices. Depending on the products and quantities ordered, rounding may result in a small difference, either higher or lower, between the displayed unit price including VAT and the calculated total.

Rest assured, this is not a billing error. It is simply a difference caused by VAT calculations and rounding.
