What Exactly Is Shein’s Return Policy?

There are different return policies depending on where you live. Generally, most items can be returned within 30 days from the date of delivery. You will get a full refund if the items are in their original condition and packaging.

Except in certain situations, Shein does not pay for shipping fees. You will have to ship the item you wish to return at your own cost. Shein will not refund items that have been worn or damaged by you. You also need to include the item’s tag and put it in its original packaging.

If you live in the United States, Shein accepts returns within 45 days from the date of purchase. Shein provides a shipping label for free shipping on your first return. If you need to make additional returns, you can use the shipping label provided by Shein, but it will be $7.99 for shipping. You can also use an alternative courier company at your own cost.

Shein Europe provides a free return label if you return from France, Germany, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Poland, or Sweden. If you return from Belgium, your first return is free; thereafter, you will pay €4.5 per additional package.

The first return label is free, and you can choose to use either Hermes or Royal Mail to send your package. If you decide to return items from the same order later, Shein will deduct £2.5 from your refund.
