In these cases, we undertake to offer, as appropriate, an exchange at our expense or a full refund.

This guarantee applies if you are dissatisfied with the use of the product, provided that:

9. Return procedure
For any return request, please contact us promptly by email at contact@naturaliaquebec.com.
Email subject: Item return
After reviewing your request:
- we will let you know whether the return is accepted
- we will provide the appropriate return address
- any return sent without prior approval may be refused
Please do not return the product to the address shown on the parcel.
10. Return address
The return address is not automatically the address shown on your parcel. Please contact us so that we can provide the return address closest to your location.
11. Partial refunds
In certain cases, only a partial refund may be granted, including for:
- any item showing obvious signs of use
- any item not in its original condition
- any item damaged or incomplete for reasons not attributable to our service
- any item returned after the deadline
- books showing signs of use
- CDs, DVDs, software, video games, tapes or vinyl records that have already been opened
12. Refund processing
Once the returned item has been received and inspected, we will email you to confirm receipt. We will then notify you whether your refund request has been accepted or rejected.
If approved, the refund will be issued to your original payment method within 24 to 72 hours after approval, subject to applicable bank processing times.
13. Delivery delays and refunds
Delivery times may sometimes be affected by external circumstances or force majeure events.
A delivery delay of less than 30 days does not entitle you to a refund. After this period, you may submit a refund request.
14. Refunds after dispatch
Once an order has been dispatched, no refund can be granted until the parcel has been received and then returned to the return address we provide.
15. Incorrect delivery address
Naturalia Québec cannot be held responsible for a lost parcel if an incorrect or incomplete address has been provided by the customer after the order has been dispatched. In this case, no refund request can be accepted.
16. Parcels returned because of absence or failure to collect
If a parcel is returned to us for any of the following reasons:
- an incorrect or incomplete address provided by the customer
- the customer was absent at delivery
- the parcel was not collected within the required period
- the customer refused delivery
the cost of resending the parcel will be solely the customer’s responsibility.
When the carrier leaves a delivery notice or informs the customer by email, the customer generally has a limited time to collect the parcel at the designated collection point or post office. If this period expires and the parcel is returned to us, it may be resent at the customer’s expense.
17. Fee deduction when refunding a returned parcel
If the customer does not wish to pay the reshipping costs and requests a refund instead, a $19 processing fee will automatically be deducted from the refund to cover part of the administrative and logistics costs incurred.
18. Late or missing refunds
If you have not yet received your refund:
- check your bank account again
- then contact your bank or card issuer
- processing time may be required before the refund appears
If you have still received nothing after these checks, contact us at contact@naturaliaquebec.com.
19. Return shipping costs
Return shipping costs remain the customer’s responsibility, except if the product received is:
- defective
- damaged
- does not match the order
