Return & Refund Policy

Last updated: June 14, 2026  Β·  Effective immediately  Β·  silbattaspices.com

Our Promise to You. At Silbatta Spices, every product is carefully quality-checked and hygienically packed before dispatch. We stand behind the purity and freshness of everything we sell β€” and we're here to make it right if something ever goes wrong.

No Returns on Delivered Products

Due to the consumable and perishable nature of our food products, we are unable to accept returns once the order has been delivered.

❌ No Returns Accepted β€” This policy exists to maintain the highest standards of hygiene and food safety for all our customers. Once a product leaves our hands and reaches yours, we cannot take it back into our supply chain.
  • Returns are not accepted for change of mind, taste preference, or unused portion of a product.
  • This applies to all products across our catalogue β€” spice blends, whole spices, and gift sets.
  • We strongly recommend checking product descriptions, ingredients, and allergen information before placing an order.

What's Not Covered

The following situations are not eligible for a refund or replacement:

  • Change of mind after the order has been placed or delivered.
  • Dislike of taste, aroma, or flavour (subjective preferences).
  • Complaints raised after 48 hours of delivery.
  • Damage caused by improper storage after delivery (e.g. exposure to moisture or heat).
  • Minor variations in colour or texture that are natural to handcrafted, stone-ground spices.
  • Partially used products.
  • Complaints submitted without photos or videos as supporting evidence.
  • Orders with an incorrect delivery address provided by the customer.
🌿 Natural Variation: Our spices are traditionally prepared and stone-ground in small batches. Slight variation in colour, coarseness, and aroma between batches is completely natural and does not indicate a quality defect.

Our Quality Promise

We take immense pride in what we put in every packet. Our quality promise is simple:

πŸ’― Every product is quality-checked and hygienically sealed before dispatch to ensure freshness, purity, and authenticity. We take full responsibility for products that leave our facility in a condition that does not meet our standards.
  • All spices are sourced from trusted, verified suppliers and processed in hygienic conditions.
  • Every batch undergoes quality checks before packing.
  • Packaging is sealed to preserve freshness, aroma, and shelf life.
  • We use food-grade materials throughout our packing process.
  • Our Founder personally oversees quality standards β€” because great spices are personal to us.

Our resolution decisions, once communicated, are final. We reserve the right to assess all complaints on a case-by-case basis.
