With the exclusion of any airport worldwide, returns will be accepted for exchange or store credit in any Louis Vuitton store with the exception due to administrative constraint, of Brazil, China, Colombia, India, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Lebanon, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Russia, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, the United Arab Emirates, Vietnam and only under specific conditions in Korea where specific regulations apply.
Subject to the above-mentioned limitations, new and unused products, in pristine condition, accompanied by original receipt, may also be returned for a refund in the original payment method, but only prior to the flight's departure (i.e. before the client leaves the country).
For exchange and store credits, in case the price of the product and/or currency in country in which the product is returned differs from its price and/or currency in the country where it was purchased, the exchange or store credit will be exclusively based on the price and currency in the country where the product is returned.
Where products are exchanged, if the new sale is for a higher price, the price difference must be paid by you before the replacement product is provided. If the new sale is for a lower price, Louis Vuitton will, at its discretion, either (i) issue a store credit to you for the difference (but not for delivery charges, if any); or (ii) refund you for the difference (but not for delivery charges, if any) by the method you used for payment.
This return policy is in addition to your legal rights for lack of conformity of products and may be subject to other conditions or limitations in other countries.
Additional policies may be imposed by the airport in which the Louis Vuitton product was purchased and supplement these terms and conditions of sale.
