Curiosity Box is happy to serve international subscribers – shipping charges vary by country and include duties and import taxes charged by your home country. Final charge is calculated at checkout.
If you are in a country that charges Duties and/or Taxes, you will have two shipping methods: the option to pay for only the shipping upfront or the shipping and pre-pay all duties and taxes.
If you decide to pay for shipping only, you will need to pay duties and taxes to customs once your package arrives in your country. We are not responsible for paying these when you pay for Shipping only.

Boxes first start to ship within the first week of the following Months:
- Spring Season - March
- Summer Season - June
- Fall Season - September
- Winter Season - December
Renewing subscribers get their boxes shipped first when shipping begins. If you're a new subscriber that purchases before the ship month, your box will go out once the existing subscribers’ boxes ship for that particular season.
For example, if you buy the Summer box in May once available, your box won't ship until June when shipping for that season begins.
