To track your order:

Check your email – Shipping confirmation email contains tracking number and carrier link
-
Visit our website – Log into your account and view order history
-
Contact us – If you lost your tracking information, email datvtdllc@gmail.com
Tracking information typically includes:
-
Carrier name
-
Tracking number
-
Current status (label created, in transit, out for delivery, delivered)
-
Scan history with timestamps and locations
-
Estimated delivery date
6.2 When Tracking Becomes Available
| Event | Tracking Status |
|---|---|
| Label created (0-24 hours after processing) | “Label Created” – carrier notified but package not yet received |
| Package received by carrier (ship date) | “Picked Up” or “Accepted” – first scan |
| In transit | Regular scans as package moves through network |
| Out for delivery | Day of delivery |
| Delivered | Final scan |
If your tracking shows “Label Created” for more than 3 business days:
-
Contact us – there may be a processing delay
-
Do not assume the package is lost – carriers sometimes miss initial scans
6.3 Tracking Not Updating
Common reasons tracking may not update for several days:
| Scenario | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Package in transit between major hubs | Scans occur at origin, major hubs, and destination – not at every stop |
| Carrier missed a scan | Occasional human error – tracking may jump from “Accepted” to “Out for Delivery” |
| International shipment | Tracking may stop updating once package leaves the U.S.; reappears when scanned in destination country |
| Weekend or holiday | No scans on non-business days |
What to do:
-
Wait 3-5 business days before becoming concerned
-
If still no updates after 7 business days, contact us
6.4 “Delivered” Status But No Package
If tracking shows “Delivered” but you have not received your order:
Step 1: Check around your property
-
Porch, front door, back door, garage, mailbox
-
Behind bushes or columns
-
With neighbors (carriers sometimes deliver to wrong address)
Step 2: Wait 1-2 business days
-
Carriers occasionally mark packages “Delivered” before actual delivery
-
Package may appear within 48 hours
Step 3: Check with building management
-
For apartments or condos, check mailroom, front desk, or parcel locker
Step 4: Contact the carrier
-
Provide tracking number – they can see GPS coordinates of delivery scan
-
File a claim if carrier confirms misdelivery
Step 5: Contact VTD Global LLC
-
If carrier confirms delivery to correct address and package remains missing, email datvtdllc@gmail.com
-
We will assist with claim and, if necessary, provide replacement or refund (case by case)
Note: VTD Global LLC is not responsible for package theft after confirmed delivery. We recommend:
-
Requiring signature confirmation for high-value orders (available at checkout)
-
Using a secure delivery location (work address, P.O. box, or package locker)

8.1 How We Protect Your Products
VTD Global LLC invests significantly in packaging to ensure your order arrives in perfect condition.
Our packaging includes:
-
Rigid cardboard boxes – For all signs larger than 8×10 inches
-
Corner protectors – Prevents edge damage
-
Bubble wrap – Cushioning around the entire product
-
Packing paper or air pillows – Fills empty space to prevent shifting
-
Plastic sleeve – For moisture protection (metal signs)
-
“Fragile” labels – For glass components or particularly delicate items
For small signs under 8×10 inches: Padded poly mailers with internal cardboard reinforcement.
8.2 Environmental Packaging Practices
VTD Global LLC is committed to sustainable packaging:
-
Recyclable materials – Cardboard boxes, paper fillers, paper tape
-
Reduced plastic – Only used where necessary for moisture protection
-
Minimal packaging – Right-sized boxes to reduce waste and shipping costs
We encourage customers to recycle or reuse our packaging materials.
8.3 What to Do If Packaging Is Damaged
If your package arrives with visible exterior damage:
-
Photograph the damaged packaging before opening
-
Open carefully and inspect product
-
If product is damaged – Follow Section 15 (Damaged in Transit)
-
If product is undamaged – The packaging did its job; no further action needed
Do not refuse delivery due to packaging damage – the product may be fine inside. Accept the package, inspect, and contact us if needed.
9. International Shipping
9.1 Overview
VTD Global LLC welcomes international customers and ships to over 10 countries (see Section 1.2).
Important considerations for international orders:
-
Longer delivery times (2-5 weeks total)
-
Additional customs clearance time (varies)
-
Customs duties, VAT, and fees payable by you
-
Limited tracking once package leaves the U.S.
-
No expedited shipping options
-
No free shipping promotions
9.2 International Shipping Process
When you place an international order:
-
You complete checkout – Provide accurate shipping address and phone number (required for customs)
-
We process your order – Same processing times as domestic (1-10 business days depending on product)
-
We ship via international carrier – USPS International, UPS Worldwide, or FedEx International Economy
-
You receive tracking – Email with tracking number
-
Package clears customs – May be delayed; you may be contacted by carrier or customs for information
-
You pay any duties/taxes – Collected by carrier or customs before delivery
-
Package delivered – To your provided address
9.3 International Delivery Address Requirements
For international orders, you must provide:
-
Recipient full name (as appears on identification)
-
Complete street address (no PO Boxes for most carriers)
-
City, state/province, postal code
-
Country
-
Phone number (required for customs and carrier)
Incomplete or incorrect addresses are the #1 cause of international delivery failures. Please double-check.
9.4 International Shipping Restrictions by Product
Some products cannot be shipped internationally:
-
Products larger than 24 inches in any dimension (exceeds carrier limits)
-
Products weighing more than 20 lbs
-
Products containing certain materials restricted by destination countries
If your order contains restricted items for international shipping, we will notify you and offer:
-
Remove restricted items and ship the rest
-
Cancel the order for full refund
10. Customs, Duties, and Taxes (International)
10.1 Your Responsibility for Customs Fees
IMPORTANT: International customers are solely responsible for all customs duties, import taxes, VAT, and brokerage fees imposed by their destination country.
VTD Global LLC does NOT:
-
Calculate customs fees (we don’t know them)
-
Collect customs fees at checkout
-
Pre-pay duties or taxes
-
Provide refunds for orders refused due to customs fees
-
Mark packages as “gift” to avoid duties (this is illegal and we will not do it)
10.2 Types of Fees You May Incur
| Fee Type | Description | Typical Amount |
|---|---|---|
| VAT (Value Added Tax) | Consumption tax applied in most countries | 20% (UK), 19-25% (EU) |
| GST (Goods and Services Tax) | Similar to VAT in Canada, Australia | 5-10% (Canada), 10% (Australia) |
| Customs Duty | Tariff on imported goods | Varies by product category (0-15%) |
| Brokerage Fee | Carrier fee for customs processing | 10−30 (varies by carrier) |
| Handling Fee | Postal service fee for clearing customs | 5−15 |
Total potential fees: 20-40% of order value is a reasonable estimate.
10.3 How Customs Fees Are Collected
Depending on your country and carrier, customs fees may be collected:
-
Before delivery – Carrier sends you an invoice; you pay online or at pickup
-
At delivery – You pay the driver (cash or card, depending on carrier)
-
After delivery – Carrier bills you separately (less common)
If you refuse to pay customs fees:
-
The package will be returned to VTD Global LLC (2-4 months transit)
-
We will refund product cost only, minus original shipping and return shipping fees
-
You will not receive a refund for shipping costs
10.4 How to Estimate Customs Fees
Before ordering internationally, we recommend:
-
Contact your country’s customs authority – Ask about duty rates for “printed signs” or “wall decor” (Harmonized System code 4911 or 8306 typically)
-
Use online duty calculators – Search “[your country] import duty calculator”
-
Budget appropriately – Assume 30% of order value in additional fees to be safe
VTD Global LLC cannot provide estimates because rates vary by country, product, and order value.
10.5 Customs Paperwork
VTD Global LLC properly completes all required customs documentation, including:
-
Commercial invoice (product description, quantity, value)
-
Country of origin (United States)
-
Harmonized System (HS) code
-
Reason for export (sale of goods)
We declare the actual value you paid – never a lower amount. Misdeclaration is illegal and we will not participate.
11. Shipping to APO/FPO/DPO Addresses
11.1 What Are APO/FPO/DPO Addresses?
-
APO – Army Post Office (Army, Air Force)
-
FPO – Fleet Post Office (Navy, Marines)
-
DPO – Diplomatic Post Office (embassies, diplomatic missions)
VTD Global LLC proudly ships to APO/FPO/DPO addresses to support U.S. military and diplomatic personnel overseas.
11.2 How to Address APO/FPO/DPO Orders
Use the correct format:
APO Example:

FPO Example:
PO3 Jane Doe USS Shipname FPO AE 09555
DPO Example:
James Wilson Unit 8900 Box 1234 DPO AA 34001
Important: Do not include city or country names – only the APO/FPO/DPO designation with two-letter state code (AE, AA, AP).
11.3 Delivery Times for APO/FPO/DPO
Military mail takes significantly longer:
-
Standard delivery: 2-4 weeks (sometimes longer to remote locations)
-
Tracking: Limited – may show only “Departed U.S.” and then no updates until arrival
-
No expedited shipping available
Please be patient – military postal systems are reliable but slow.

Some products cannot ship to military addresses:

Packages over 70 lbs
