The Australian Border Force is tasked with enforcing the prescription requirements and may seize any non-compliant nicotine vape deliveries that do not include your prescription information.
Australian customers MUST provide a copy of your prescription in PDF or image format to info@cosmicnz.co.nz so that we can include it with your order. Please send your prescription from the email address from which you made your order.
Cosmic will take all practicable steps to ensure the fast and efficient delivery of your order. However, we are not liable for any delays or seizures of goods by the Australian Border Force.
