Delivery area
We deliver to the delivery address specified during the order process within Germany, to the member states of the European Union, to the United Kingdom, and to Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein.
Please note: Outside the European Union, we are currently able to fulfil orders only to the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and the Principality of Liechtenstein.
We do not deliver to P.O. boxes. For organisational reasons, collection of the goods in person is not provided for; there is no entitlement to such collection.
Shipping partner & tracking
Shipping is carried out via DHL, within Germany as DHL Paket and, for shipments to the other EU member states and to the United Kingdom, as DHL Paket International or Warenpost International.
After dispatch, you will receive a shipping confirmation by email containing a tracking link through which you can track the delivery status of your order at any time.
Shipping costs
All prices stated in the online shop are final prices including statutory VAT.

- Germany: free shipping from an order value of 40 €.
- Austria, Denmark, France, Italy, Spain, Sweden: free shipping from an order value of 125 €.
- Other EU countries: free shipping from an order value of 125 €.
- United Kingdom: shipping is charged on every order; there is no free-shipping threshold.

Below the order values stated above, a flat-rate shipping charge applies, the exact amount of which is displayed to you before you complete the order.
Delivery time
Unless otherwise stated on the respective product page, the following expected delivery times apply following conclusion of the contract and receipt of payment:
- Germany: as a rule 2 to 3 business days
- Rest of Europe: as a rule 3 to 7 business days
- United Kingdom: shipments to the United Kingdom pass through customs clearance. The time this takes is outside our control and varies, so we do not quote a fixed delivery time for the United Kingdom.
- Switzerland and Liechtenstein: shipments to Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein pass through customs clearance. The time this takes is outside our control and varies, so we do not quote a fixed delivery time for these destinations.
In the case of payment by advance payment or purchase on account (invoice), the delivery time begins upon receipt of payment. No delivery takes place on Sundays and public holidays.
Statements regarding delivery time are expected guideline values, unless they are expressly designated as a binding date.
Customs and import charges (United Kingdom)
Since the United Kingdom left the European Union, every shipment there is an export and is presented to customs.
For orders with a goods value of up to £135, we charge UK VAT at checkout. The price you pay in the shop is the final price; no further charges are due on delivery.
For orders with a goods value above £135, import VAT and any customs duties are levied on import in accordance with UK law and are payable by the recipient. The carrier may also charge a handling fee for presenting the shipment to customs. These charges are not part of the purchase price and are not shown in the shop.
Customs and import charges (Switzerland and Liechtenstein)
Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein are not part of the customs territory of the European Union. Every shipment there is an export and is presented to customs on import.
Import tax and any customs duties are levied on import in accordance with Swiss law and are payable by the recipient. The carrier may also charge a handling fee for presenting the shipment to customs. These charges are not part of the purchase price, are not shown in the shop, and are not included in the price paid there.
Transport damage & undeliverable parcels
In the case of consumers, the risk of accidental loss and accidental deterioration passes to you only upon handover of the goods. Please report visible transport damage if possible already to the delivery driver, and then inform us at service@vykea.com. Your statutory rights remain unaffected by this.
If a parcel could not be delivered, we will contact you after the shipment has been returned to us in order to arrange redelivery.
Partial deliveries
We are entitled to make partial deliveries insofar as this is reasonable for you. You will incur no additional shipping costs as a result. Where several items with different delivery times are shipped together, the longest delivery time applies to the entire shipment.
