Refund policy
RETURNS, EXCHANGES & REFUND POLICY
Customer-facing policy • Last updated 31 August 2026
At Seven Silks, each saree is carefully selected and presented as a premium textile product. Many
pieces are limited, handwoven or artisan-made. Customers are encouraged to review product
descriptions, photographs, measurements, colour information and care guidance before purchase.
1. Change-of-Mind Returns
Unless mandatory law applicable to the customer requires otherwise, Seven Silks does not accept
returns or provide refunds solely because a customer changes their mind, decides that the colour,
design or style does not suit them, orders the wrong product, no longer requires the product, or finds
a similar product elsewhere at a different price.
2. Eligible Returns
A return request may be considered where the customer receives an incorrect item, the product
arrives materially damaged, the product has a material manufacturing defect, or the product
materially differs from the description or specification provided by Seven Silks at the time of
purchase.
3. Visible Delivery Issues — 48 Hours
Customers are requested to inspect their order promptly upon delivery. Any claim concerning visible
transit damage, an incorrect item, missing contents, damaged packaging, or another issue reasonably
apparent upon delivery should be reported to Seven Silks within 48 hours of recorded delivery,
together with the order number and clear photographic and/or video evidence. Claims reported later
may be more difficult to establish as delivery-related claims and will be assessed on the available
evidence. This notification period does not exclude or restrict mandatory statutory rights.
4. Evidence Required
For visible delivery issues, customers should retain and provide, where reasonably available,
photographs of the external shipping package, Seven Silks packaging, shipping label, security/tamper
tag and the product itself. An unboxing video is strongly encouraged for high-value purchases.
5. Condition of Returned Products
Unless the alleged defect itself prevents these conditions from being met, returned sarees must
remain unused, unworn, unwashed, unaltered, unstained and unperfumed, with the blouse piece
uncut, and with original labels, security/tamper tags, accessories and packaging intact.
6. Products Normally Not Returnable
Except where required by applicable law, customised, bespoke, made-to-order, personalised, stitched
or altered products; sarees with a cut or separated blouse piece; and products that have been worn,
washed, dry-cleaned, altered, misused or damaged after delivery are ordinarily not returnable.
7. Handwoven & Handcrafted Characteristics
Minor variations in weave, yarn, motif placement, texture, selvage, loom marks or other
characteristics inherent to artisanal textile production do not automatically constitute defects. Each
case will be assessed against the product description and applicable law.
8. Colour Representation
Seven Silks makes reasonable efforts to photograph and display products accurately. Minor colour
differences may arise from photographic lighting, screen calibration, device settings and ambient
light. A minor display-related difference does not automatically constitute a defect; a materially
different product will be assessed separately.
9. Return Authorization
Customers must contact Seven Silks and obtain return instructions before sending any product back.
Unauthorised returns may be delayed and, where permitted by law, returned to the sender.
10. Return Shipping
Where Seven Silks confirms that the wrong product was supplied or that an eligible defect/non-
conformity is attributable to Seven Silks, Seven Silks will arrange or reimburse reasonable return
shipping as appropriate. For a discretionary return expressly approved by Seven Silks, return
shipping and related costs may be the customer’s responsibility to the extent permitted by law.
11. Inspection Before Refund
All returned products are inspected before a refund, replacement or other remedy is processed.
Seven Silks may document product condition during fulfilment and upon return. Where inspection
indicates substitution, wear, alteration, post-delivery damage or materially different condition, a
discretionary refund may be declined to the extent permitted by law.
12. Refund Method
Approved refunds are normally returned to the original payment method. Seven Silks generally will
not redirect refunds to unrelated third-party accounts or alternative payment instruments merely at
the customer’s request. Bank, card issuer and payment-provider processing times may vary.
13. Duties, Taxes & Shipping Charges
International duties, VAT, customs fees and similar destination-country charges may be non-
refundable by Seven Silks unless required by law or included in an approved remedy. Customers
may need to apply directly to the relevant customs authority for recovery of import taxes.
14. Refused / Undeliverable Shipments
Where a shipment is returned because of an incorrect or incomplete address supplied by the
customer, repeated failed delivery attempts, failure to collect, refusal without valid grounds, or
failure to pay applicable import charges, reasonable outward shipping, return shipping, customs and
carrier charges may be deducted from any amount otherwise refundable, to the extent permitted by
law.
15. Suspected Fraud or Abuse
Seven Silks may investigate return requests where there are reasonable indications of product
substitution, fabricated evidence, false non-delivery claims, payment fraud, tampering or repeated
abusive return behaviour. Additional information reasonably necessary to investigate a claim may
be requested.
16. Order Cancellation
Once an order has entered processing, sourcing, alteration or fulfilment, cancellation may no longer
be possible. Bespoke, personalised, altered or made-to-order items may become non-cancellable once
work has commenced, subject to applicable law.
17. Mandatory Consumer Rights
This policy operates alongside applicable consumer-protection laws. Nothing in it excludes, restricts
or modifies any consumer guarantee, statutory remedy or other right that cannot lawfully be
excluded or restricted under Singapore law or the mandatory law applicable to the customer’s
transaction.
