International Returns

Because shipping outside the U.S. can be very expensive due to carrier costs, duties and customs fees, Encompass maintains the following returns policies:

• Encompass does not pay the shipping costs for any parts returned to us from outside the U.S. for any reason. Customers are responsible for all shipping, duties and customs fees for any replacement parts, as well.
• If the part has core value, the defective part being replaced must be returned to Encompass at the customer’s expense.

We apologize for any inconvenience and generally encourage international customers to seek more cost-effective parts elsewhere.
