All bank charges, including intermediary and beneficiary bank fees for T/T transfers, are the responsibility of the buyer. Payments must reference the Proforma Invoice number.

Standard production lead time is 15-25 days after receipt of deposit and confirmation of all order specifications. Lead times may vary for OEM/ODM orders depending on customization complexity.
