Shipping, Tracking and Delivery

 

KeBay's service is limited to the management of logistics for items delivered from our designated overseas warehouse to our office location in Nairobi. The responsibility for the successful and accurate delivery of an item to our overseas warehouse lies solely with the customer, the seller, and the courier. (the exception is when using our Assisted Purchasing Service).

KeBay disclaims all liability for any loss, damage, or non-delivery of items that fail to be correctly delivered to our overseas warehouse address. It is the customer's duty to ensure that all items are dispatched to the correct and complete overseas warehouse address, and to monitor their delivery status and tracking up to that point. The customer agrees that any issues concerning incorrect address delivery or non-delivery to the overseas warehouse are a matter to be resolved directly with the seller and/or the courier. KeBay shall not be held responsible for any claims, costs, or liabilities arising from such delivery failures.

Value Added Tax (VAT) Reimbursement

 

KeBay disclaims any and all responsibility for the successful reclamation of Value Added Tax (VAT) on purchases. While KeBay may offer assistance with VAT reclamation as an additional service, such successful refunds are not guaranteed.

The process of VAT reclamation, particularly from European jurisdictions, is intricate and subject to the specific regulations of numerous governmental and non-governmental entities. Consequently, KeBay cannot be held liable for any failures, delays, or incomplete refunds arising from or in connection with the VAT reclamation process.

Please be advised that administrative fees may be imposed by governmental authorities for processing VAT refunds. Furthermore, certain countries, such as Germany, may have a minimum purchase amount threshold (e.g., €1000) below which VAT refunds are not issued. It is also important to note that the full VAT amount, typically 21%, is rarely reimbursed in full due to various administrative charges. The final refund amount may be significantly reduced, potentially resulting in a net refund of approximately 10% after all such fees have been deducted.
