Full payment must be received before orders are shipped.


4. Shipping & Delivery

Please see our Shipping Policy for detailed terms.

Tranquil Trees is not responsible for delays caused by couriers, strikes, or customs.


5. Returns & Refunds

Please see our Returns & Refunds Policy for detailed terms.

Certain items (soaps, oils, opened incense, custom orders) cannot be returned for hygiene or personalisation reasons.


6. Liability

Tranquil Trees is not liable for misuse of products (e.g., leaving incense unattended, improper handling of candles or oils).

Products are intended for personal use and home décor. They are not medical products and should not be used as substitutes for medical treatment.
