Shipping & Returns
Australian Shipping
We ship to Australian addresses via either Australia Post, Team Global Express or Aramex. Unless otherwise instructed of a safe delivery position, your order will be left near the front door in a safe place if no one is home for delivery. If it is not safe to do so, then your order may be taken to the nearest collection point for pickup.
Please be advised, that we endeavour to dispatch by the next business day. As you may be aware, from time to time there may be various issues with freight corridors and as such delays in freight movements may take place. We appreciate your patience and understanding during these times.
International Shipping
For all international shipping, most international addresses are shipped to via Australia Post unless specifically requested otherwise. If such, then contact with My Gut Wellness needs to be made prior to placement of order. If another shipping company is required, a shipping quote can be arranged.
International Import Duty/Tax Fees
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to be aware of any import duty/tax or any other fee related to the product/s entering your country and as such, any import duty/tax or any other fee related to the product/s entering your country, will be payable by the purchaser.

All returned goods that are not as a result of damage in transit or faulty goods (eg. incorrectly ordered) must be sent at your expense. Re-issued goods will also be sent to you at your expense. We strongly recommend the use of insured couriers for your protection. Returned items must be packaged as well as or better than when the item was received.
Policy regarding incorrectly ordered.
Goods returned incorrectly ordered must be in perfect, UNUSED & UNDAMAGED resalable condition accompanied by the original invoice. Goods returned that you incorrectly ordered are subject to a 15% restocking charge where a refund is desired. No restocking fee applies if a subsequent order to the same or greater value is placed, or alternatively a credit to that value can be placed on your account for future use within a maximum time period of 12 months. FREIGHT CHARGES WILL NOT BE REIMBURSED.
If incorrectly ordered My Gut Wellness will not accept the return of product if a product shows signs of use as they cannot be resold as new.
It is your responsibility to determine that the product ordered is correct. If you are unsure about a product you wish to purchase, please contact us BEFORE you order. The staff at My Gut Wellness are happy to assist.
Policy regarding faulty goods or parts broken in transit to you.
Faulty goods returned will be examined and will be further tested. Warranties will be given for failure of goods when due to a manufacturing defect but not if goods are damaged due to improper handling or use. Replacement will be determined in accordance with the Australian Consumer Law – major & minor failure. Damage or failure as a result of any other cause is not warrantable. Goods returned that are found to have no fault, will be returned to you at your expense.

Freight costs to international locations are calculated at the checkout.

Dispatch Times
We do not guarantee immediate dispatch. All effort will be made to dispatch within 24 hours of order, however, if the item is not currently on the shelf, we may need to order goods to replenish stock which may take from 1-10 days.
