EXCHANGES AND RETURNS

For distance purchases (online and to be received at the address via courier), Portuguese law gives the consumer a period of 14 days (called the cooling-off period) in which the customer can return one or more items, without the need to give a reason, regardless of whether the item is faulty or not. At Duality we accept exchanges and returns after 30 days of sale.

In these cases (free termination of contract), the cost of returning the item is borne by the consumer, as stipulated in Article 13(2) of Decree-Law 24/2014 of February 14.

The refund will be made by a payment method to be agreed.

The refund will be made within a maximum of 14 days from the date of receipt of the product at the store/warehouse.

Although returns/exchanges are accepted within 30 days (as described above), returned goods will only be accepted if they meet the following conditions:

  • The returned item must be intact and without any marks or damage from use;
  • You must return the item with its packaging, manuals and accessories in pristine condition;
  • Along with the returned goods, you will need to enclose the invoice for the same item.

If any of these points are breached, we will not be able to accept the return (and consequent refund) or exchange.
Before returning/exchanging the item, please contact us for confirmation, otherwise we will not accept the return/exchange. The cost of return/exchange postage is always the responsibility of the consumer.
