Lulu Direct is a print-on-demand company, so any physical products purchased will need to be printed and bound before they are shipped. This includes books, yearbooks, photobooks, comic books, and magazines.

  • International Economy packages are delivered using the postal service of the destination country.

  • Local Customs and Immigration agencies determine duties or taxes levied against packages arriving from outside the destination country. These additional fees are the responsibility of the recipient. Lulu cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred by the purchaser or recipient of orders due to shipment failure or late delivery.
