Shipping & Handling Policies
DIY and Manufacturer R&D Ordering
If you are not a business (yet), we recommend finding one of our Flavorah resellers or distributors to purchase flavoring from. We could put our products on Amazon like our competitors, but we preferer to support the specialty retailers around the globe who offer quality selection and service to their customers. Once you have perfected your recipes and plans for your product we can help you with bulk pricing and a wholesale account.
If your local global reseller or distributor does not have stock of a particular flavor, then ask them to restock; We try to ship within one business day.
Most international orders should be received in 5-10 business days. However, if there is an item in your order that is out of stock, we will at our discretion either split and ship your order in parts or hold it until the back ordered item is available.

Wholesale Ordering
You must ship wholesale products via UPS Ground, FedEx, or Freight. Shipping for international wholesale orders may need separate payment. Furthermore, customs declarations may be necessary for tariffs depending on your country. The tariff code will be for “Food Flavoring Materials.” If you encounter the customs agency in your country or a local carrier miss-identifying or miss-categorizing your shipment, please feel free to contact us for assistance.
International Shipping Restrictions & Considerations
Flavorah goods are tendered for shipment DAP (delivered at place). This means that the buyer will be responsible for paying customs tariffs, THCs (Terminal Handling Costs), and other costs and fees that occur in their country once the shipment has arrived at a place of entry. Our primary carriers – DHL, FedEx and UPS – handle many of these important conditions and you will not need to worry about a thing. However, in the case that you need more paperwork, it is important you contact and cooperates with your carrier representative in a prompt manner.
Due to circumstances out of our control, a package left in customs will likely be destroyed. Furthermore, Flavorah will not be held financially responsible if your order is returned, destroyed, or confiscated by your customs agency. You are agreeing to pay any fees owed during the customs clearance process. While these situations are unfortunate, we cannot accept any returns and do not issue refunds for items abandoned.
Flavor Concentrate Classifications for Shipping
International Shipping Advisory: Class 3, DG products (flammable liquids)
Some of our flavors are classified under IATA as “Dangerous Goods” (DG) due to their low flash point (the lowest temperature at which a liquid in a specified apparatus will give off sufficient vapor to ignite momentarily on the application of a flame). Therefore, if you’re in certain non-U.S. regions, we highly recommend securing support from a freight forward company with a U.S. based address that can assist with the import of these flavors.
Please review the list of regulated and non-regulated (DG and non-DG) flavors by selecting those filters on our product search results pages.
Non-regulated (non-flammable) flavors can ship directly via FedEx, DHL, or UPS depending on your country. You can find more on shipping DG with by following the link relative to your preferred shipping method:
