Shipping to New Zealand

Personalised books for children, printed in New Zealand

Your book is made here rather than flown in, so it arrives in six to ten days with nothing to pay at the border.

This is the part worth knowing before you compare us with anyone: your book is produced in New Zealand and sent domestically. That is why the window is six to ten days rather than the three weeks an overseas order usually means here, and why there are no customs or import charges at all - there is no border for it to cross. It is the same book and the same price as everywhere else; the difference is where the printer sits.

Printed in New Zealand, not shipped to it

Father's Day is in September

The first Sunday of September, not the third Sunday of June - New Zealand and Australia keep the same date, and the rest of the internet does not. Working back from it, count the six-to-ten day window from when you APPROVE the book rather than from when you pay, because approval is where the clock actually starts.

Mother's Day is the second Sunday of May, which matches the northern-hemisphere date.

A summer Christmas and a December school year

The school year ends in December, so the end-of-year milestone and Christmas arrive together and the start-of-school nerves belong to late January instead. If you are buying for both, they are two different books rather than one that stretches to cover the pair.

Common questions

Are the books actually printed in New Zealand?

Yes. Your book is produced in New Zealand and shipped domestically, which is why it arrives in six to ten days and why there are no customs or import charges.

How long does delivery take within New Zealand?

Six to ten days from when you approve the book for printing - not from when you order, since nothing prints until you have seen it and said yes. The digital edition is ready in minutes.

Are there any import charges?

None. The book never crosses a border, so there is nothing to collect on delivery.

What currency will I be charged in?

US dollars. Your bank applies its own conversion, so expect the statement amount to be close to the displayed price rather than exactly it.
