*COVID 19 GLOBAL PANDEMIC UPDATE*

Some orders from Ghibli Museum Store in 2022 are expected to be significantly affected. All customers must be prepared to deal with some sort of unexpected complications due to unprecedented uncertainty in supply-chain disruptions caused by the global pandemic. All orders will be produced and shipped out in a timely manner, but some countries may experience longer-than-normal shipping times because of governmental intervention and economic shutdowns. In addition to that, some of the tracking numbers might be inaccurate or slow to update.

Extended refund window

Because of Covid-19 we have extended our refund window to be an extra month for all order made in February-May. This means you are entitled to the refund after the 90 days.

Our goal is to offer you the best and most economical shipping options, no matter where you live. Each product requires some time for the construction and handling before we can ship. Most orders ship within 1 or 2 business days. However, in peak seasons, shipment can take up to 7 business days. When you order multiple products, the orders can come from different warehouses. In this case, it could happen that you will receive your products in different packages and at different times. Below are the approximate shipping times for your reference. 


Strictly no returns or exchanges unless there are defect(s) in the product(s) and the matter is brought to our attention within one week of your receipt of the item, and our team will be able to help you from there.

Please make sure you are ordering the correct item, size, and color. Make sure to read the measurements listed within each product description. If no measurements are listed, please email us.

Orders cannot be cancelled once made.

Our policy lasts 60 days. If 60 days have gone by since the fulfillment of your purchase, unfortunately we can’t offer you a refund or exchange. 

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.

Several types of goods are exempt from being returned. Perishable goods such as food, flowers, newspapers or magazines cannot be returned. We also do not accept products that are intimate or sanitary goods, hazardous materials, or flammable liquids or gases.
