Market Confusion
Many subscription box have monthly cut-off date, set billing date and set despatch date. With so much going on in life, who needs to remember when to pay and when to expect to receive your monthly snack boxes?
Time For Curation

Subscription Plans & Boxes
TastyPanda offers monthly subscription plans and a small range of individual branded items to support the themes of our snack boxes.
Our boxes are curated to suit a wide variety of tastes and preferences, varying from month to month to keep new experiences exciting. Our subscription options can beย found here.
Depending on theย type of boxย you select the options will vary. Contents of the boxes will vary from month to month and we are always reviewing the Asian brands we select and working with to curate the best experience possible.
Our goal is to always provide you with something iconic, tasty, unique and moreish!
Our boxes are specially curated and always full of surprises. We use our local tasting research, members community and customer feedback to help decide on some of the products that go into our subscription boxes.
From time to time we do re-stock some of our most popular products but the majority of the products will change on a month-by-month basis.
Going further with a community orientated approach, we run a monthly ballot for our members to vote on their favourite snack to stay or go and test new items curated in our TastyPanda snack vault with our unique Virtual Tasting Sessions.
In short, we don't rely have having seasonable boxes to keep each month exciting and aim to provide new suprises for the next month.
All products mayย contain traces of nuts and other allergens.ย Our products are not suitable for nut, peanut, milk, sesame, wheat, and egg allergy sufferers.ย
Allergens given are indicative only, given that we work with such a large number of independent Asian suppliers we can't guarantee that their products will be suitable, therefore our products are not suitable for those with severe allergies.
Additionally, some products will containย e-numbers and we cannot distinguish vegetarian, gluten-free or halal snacks.
There is no minimum subscription time. You can set your account to be skip, paused or cancelled at any time inย MEMBERS ACCOUNT.
Make sure you cancel at least 48 hours before the 1st of the next month, if you don't wish to be charged for the next month's box.
You can skip your subscriptions anytime inย MEMBERS ACCOUNT.
Please keep in mind to make sure you cancel at least 48 hours before the 1st of the month or opt to to skip instead and you will not be charged for that month.
Many Asian countries write their snack expiry dates in a different format order, which is as follows:ย
YEAR/MONTH/DAY.ย
If you are worried that your snacks may have expired please send us a clear photo of the snackโs expiration date to hello@tastypanda.co.uk
In addtion, we also follow U.K. labelling laws, meaning all snakcs will have english labelling, which will state the "Best Before Date".

With Royal Mail suspending all international delivery (Jan 2023), we will be using Evri for European Countriesโ delivery. There will be 2 different rates depending on the country in Europe.
Unfortunately, this also means some of the European countries normally covered by Royal Mail will not be included in our current shipping as the cost for Evri is at an unreasonably high price almost to the price of the subscription box.
We will use Royal Mail for international delivery once it resumes its international
European services. We will keep you updated in our newsletter.
At Tasty Panda we want you to be delighted every time you shop with us. Occasionally though, we understand you may want to return items.
If you change your mind you are welcome to return your purchase in its original condition within 30 days for a refund. If you are returning part of a larger order, we regret that we cannot refund delivery costs. Please see below for more details.

Custom & Import Fees
You don't need to pay customs fees if you are based in the United Kingdom.
For all other countries outside of the U.K., you may face customs charges issued by your local customs authority.
GOOD NEWS: Most countries will have a limit on their cost of goods before customs fees are chargeable. For example, in Germany, it is โฌ45 euros and importing into the U.K., it is ยฃ135 or less and does not contain alcohol or tobacco.
Please check with your local custom authority.
Goods - such as the TastyPanda Snacks or TastyPanda Keep Fresh Clips you buy - can't simply be shipped freely from country to country.
When goods are imported into a different country or customs territory, there is a charge called 'Customs Duty' that is charged by the local customs authority where the goods are being imported into.
If Customs Duty is required by your territory, you'll be responsible for paying it to the authorities.ย Whetherย Customs Duty is payable, and byย how much, depends on your country's specific regulations.
If you do have to pay Customs Duty though, the amount payable is usually calculated based on the value of the goods and the type of goods being imported.ย AND IF I DON'T PAY THE CUSTOMS DUTY?ย
If you decide to refuse the customs fees, we must confirm with the courier that your parcel will be returned back to TastyPanda before processing a refund for your order and in some instances, a shipping and handling fee may be deducted from your refund.
If you're still unsure about whether you'll be subject to customs fees, we recommend contacting your local customs office for more information before placing your order.
Sales Tax, also known as VAT or GST, is a tax charged on the supply of goods or services. TastyPanda is a new business, we currently are not registered for sales tax and so do not charge you the Sales Tax as part of the checkout process.
