Shipping to Australia
Personalised books for children, shipped to Australia
Illustrated from one photo of your child, with GST handled at checkout so nothing is collected at the border.
The part Australians have learned to dread with overseas orders is the customs message before delivery. GST is settled by us at checkout, so the price you approve is the whole price and there is nothing to collect at the border. The trade-off is honest and it is time rather than money: your book is not printed in Australia, and the economy window is nine to fourteen days, with an express option at about seven to ten.

Nothing to pay when it arrives
Australian Father's Day is not the one the internet shows you
It is the first Sunday of SEPTEMBER here, not the third Sunday of June, and almost every gift guide written for the northern hemisphere gets this wrong. If you are working back from that date, count the printing window from when you APPROVE the book rather than from when you pay - approval is the step people forget, and it is the one the clock starts on.
Mother's Day is the second Sunday of May, which does match the American date, so that one is safe to read off any guide.
The school year ends in December, which moves the gift
An Australian school year finishes in December and starts in late January, so the big "well done, you did it" moment and Christmas land in the same fortnight, and the "starting school" moment is a summer holiday away from it rather than a September scramble. It is worth ordering for those two separately rather than treating one book as both.
It also means the first-day-of-school books are wanted in January, when the northern-hemisphere internet has stopped talking about school entirely.

Common questions
Do you ship personalised books to Australia?
Yes. Australia is one of our shipping destinations, with GST settled at checkout so there is nothing to pay at the border. Shipping is quoted live for your actual address rather than estimated.
How long does delivery to Australia take?
Nine to fourteen days on the economy service, or about seven to ten on express, counted from when you approve your book for printing rather than from when you order. The digital edition is ready in minutes, so it never misses a date.
Will I be charged customs or GST on delivery?
No. GST is handled by us at checkout, so nothing is collected when the parcel arrives.
What currency will I be charged in?
US dollars. Your bank converts at its own rate, so the amount on your statement will be close to the figure shown but not identical to the cent.
