We highly recommend Registered Post so there is tracking on your order, and without tracking we can not be held liable for non-delivery by Australia Post.



Customers are responsible for paying any freight charges incurred by refused shipment and unclaimed goods. Velbella cannot be held liable for delays, non-delivery or damage of items caused by Australia Post. Velbella takes care to ensure all items are packed safely and securely for their journey to you. We strongly recommend you request registered post to cover any losses. Please refer to our Shipping and Returns page for further information. Any products containing Class 3 Dangerous Goods (most of our liquid products) will be labelled in accordance with the relevant Australian dangerous goods legislation. Products are shipped using Australia Post who are licensed under the appropriate act to carry Dangerous Goods. Further information can be obtained by emailing us. Under the Dangerous Goods legislation these items are not able to be posted via Express Post and can only be sent by road transport. So that we are not in violation of Domestic/International Laws and regulations regarding transportation of these products, we send all our liquid products via a Consumer Commodities Dangerous Goods contract through Australia Post. Any order containing Dangerous Goods and where express post has been requested will be downgraded to normal post rates and sent in accordance with the Dangerous Goods Act.
