Effective Date: 21 September 2026
Last Updated: 21 September 2026
At Flying Urban, our products are created using a Print-on-Demand (POD) model. This means many products are manufactured, printed, and prepared specifically after an order is placed.
Because of the nature of made-to-order products, we follow a specific return, replacement, and refund policy.
Please read this policy carefully before placing your order.
For any return, refund, replacement, or product-related enquiry, contact:
Email: support@flyingurban.com
1. Our Print-on-Demand Model
Flying Urban products may be manufactured or printed only after you place an order.
As a result, products are not generally kept as ready-to-ship inventory in the same way as conventional retail products.
Once an order enters production, printing, fulfilment, or packing, it may no longer be possible to cancel or modify it.
This is why we generally do not accept returns for change of mind, incorrect size selection, or personal preference.
2. When Can You Request a Replacement or Refund?
A replacement or refund may be considered if you receive a product that is:
- Damaged during delivery
- Manufacturing defective
- Significantly misprinted
- Incorrectly manufactured
- Different from the product ordered
- Different size/variant due to a fulfilment error
- Missing from the order
- Otherwise materially incorrect due to a fulfilment or manufacturing issue
The issue must be reported within the applicable claim period described below.
3. Claim Period
For damaged, defective, misprinted, or incorrectly fulfilled products, you should contact Flying Urban within 7 days of the date the order is delivered.
Claims submitted after this period may not be accepted.
We strongly recommend inspecting your order immediately after delivery.
The 7-day claim period is aligned with the relevant POD fulfilment workflow used by our fulfilment partner for eligible defective/misprinted claims.
4. What You Need to Submit
To investigate a return, replacement, or refund request, we may ask you to provide:
- Order number
- Name used for the order
- Registered email address
- Mobile number
- Clear photographs of the product
- Clear photographs/videos showing the defect
- Photographs of the packaging
- Photographs of the shipping label
- Unboxing video, where available
- Description of the issue
Providing clear evidence helps us determine whether the issue occurred during manufacturing, fulfilment, shipping, or after delivery.
5. Unboxing Video
We strongly recommend recording an unboxing video when opening your Flying Urban order.
An unboxing video can help establish:
- Condition of the package before opening
- Condition of the product when received
- Whether the product was damaged during transit
- Whether the wrong product was supplied
- Whether there was a manufacturing or printing issue
For certain damage, missing-item, or delivery-related claims, the availability of an unboxing video may be important when determining eligibility.
The absence of an unboxing video does not automatically mean that every claim will be rejected. Each case may be reviewed based on the available evidence and circumstances.
6. Damaged Products
If your product arrives physically damaged, please:
- Take photographs of the outer package.
- Take photographs of the shipping label.
- Take photographs/videos of the damaged product.
- Keep the original packaging.
- Contact us within 7 days of delivery.
Email:
Our team may review the evidence and coordinate with the relevant fulfilment or courier partner.
If the claim is approved, we may provide a replacement or another appropriate resolution.
7. Manufacturing Defects
A manufacturing defect may include issues such as:
- Significant stitching failure
- Major fabric defect
- Significant printing defect
- Major print damage
- Product construction defect
- Other substantial manufacturing issues
Minor imperfections that are inherent to manufacturing or printing may not qualify as defects.
Each claim will be reviewed individually.
8. Printing Defects
Because Flying Urban uses different print-on-demand technologies, minor variations may occur.
A significant printing defect may include:
- Severely distorted artwork
- Major missing portions of the intended print
- Clearly incorrect artwork
- Severe printing damage
- Significant print placement error
- Incorrect design printed on the product
Minor differences in colour, texture, placement, or appearance may not qualify as a printing defect.
9. Wrong Product Received
If you receive a product that is different from the product you ordered, contact us within 7 days.
For example:
- Wrong design
- Wrong product type
- Wrong colour/variant supplied
- Wrong size supplied due to fulfilment error
Please provide photographs of the product and packaging along with your order number.
If the fulfilment error is confirmed, Flying Urban may arrange an appropriate replacement or other resolution.
10. Wrong Size Ordered by Customer
Customers are responsible for selecting the correct size before placing an order.
Please carefully review the applicable size chart before completing your purchase.
A product will generally not qualify for a free return, replacement, or refund if the customer selected the wrong size during checkout.
For example:
If you ordered L but later realise that you needed XL, this is considered a customer size-selection issue rather than a manufacturing defect.
Any optional exchange or re-order assistance may be offered at Flying Urban's discretion and may involve additional costs.
11. Wrong Colour or Variant Selected
Customers are responsible for selecting the correct:
- Colour
- Design
- Size
- Variant
- Quantity
before completing the order.
If the customer selects the wrong option and the product has already entered production, we may not be able to change or replace it.
12. Change of Mind
We generally do not accept returns or refunds because of a change of mind.
Examples include:
- "I don't want the product anymore."
- "I ordered it by mistake."
- "I found another product."
- "I don't like the design anymore."
- "I changed my mind after delivery."
- "I expected something different based on personal preference."
This is because many Flying Urban products are manufactured specifically after an order is placed.
13. Colour Variation
The colour displayed on your device may not exactly match the physical product.
Differences can occur because of:
- Monitor settings
- Mobile screen settings
- Brightness
- Lighting
- Photography
- Printing technology
- Fabric/material characteristics
Minor colour variation is therefore not automatically considered a product defect.
14. Print Placement Variation
Minor variations in print placement may occur during the manufacturing process.
Small differences in:
- Print position
- Print alignment
- Print size
- Print texture
may occur within reasonable manufacturing tolerances.
Such minor variations may not qualify for a replacement or refund.
15. Normal Wear and Tear
Products damaged through normal use are generally not eligible for replacement or refund.
Examples include:
- Normal fading over time
- General wear and tear
- Minor fabric deterioration
- Damage caused by improper use
- Damage caused by improper washing
- Damage caused by excessive heat
- Damage caused by incorrect ironing
- Damage caused by bleach or chemicals
Customers should follow the care instructions applicable to the product.
16. Washing and Care-Related Damage
Flying Urban is not generally responsible for damage caused by failure to follow recommended product-care instructions.
This may include damage resulting from:
- Incorrect washing temperature
- Excessive heat
- Bleaching
- Improper drying
- Harsh chemicals
- Incorrect ironing
- Improper storage
Where care instructions are provided with or for a product, customers should follow them carefully.
17. Missing Products
If your package is delivered but one or more products are missing, please contact us as soon as possible.
We may request:
- Order number
- Photos of the package
- Shipping label
- Packaging
- Contents received
- Unboxing video, where available
We may investigate the matter with our fulfilment and logistics partners before determining an appropriate resolution.
18. Delivered but Not Received
If the courier tracking information shows "Delivered" but you have not received the package, contact us immediately:
We may investigate the shipment with the relevant courier partner.
You may be asked to:
- Confirm your delivery address
- Confirm whether another person received the parcel
- Check with building/security staff
- Provide relevant information
- Assist with the courier investigation
The final resolution will depend on the outcome of the investigation and available evidence.
19. RTO — Return to Origin
A shipment may be returned to the fulfilment facility if delivery cannot be completed.
Common reasons include:
- Incorrect address
- Incomplete address
- Incorrect PIN code
- Customer unavailable
- Customer unreachable
- Customer refusing delivery
- COD payment unavailable
- Non-serviceable location
- Multiple failed delivery attempts
- Premises closed
- Other courier-related circumstances
An RTO shipment is not automatically considered a customer-initiated return and does not automatically qualify for a full refund.
20. Refund for RTO Orders
If an order is returned to origin due to a customer-related reason, such as:
- Refusal to accept delivery
- Incorrect address
- Incomplete address
- Customer unavailability
- Failure to receive a COD order
Flying Urban may deduct applicable costs from any eligible refund, where permitted.
Such costs may include:
- Shipping charges
- Return shipping charges
- Fulfilment charges
- Handling charges
- Other applicable logistics costs
Refund eligibility will depend on the circumstances of the order.
21. Re-shipping an RTO Order
Where operationally possible, Flying Urban may offer to re-ship an RTO order.
Additional charges may apply.
The customer may be required to pay applicable re-shipping and related logistics costs before the order is sent again.
Re-shipping is subject to product availability and fulfilment feasibility.
22. Cancellation vs Return
Cancellation and return are different processes.
Cancellation
A cancellation request is made before an order has entered production/fulfilment.
Return/Replacement
A return/replacement request is made after delivery because of an eligible product issue.
Because Flying Urban uses a POD model, once production has started, cancellation may no longer be possible.
23. Refund Eligibility
A refund may be considered where:
- Flying Urban is unable to fulfil the order;
- An eligible defective/incorrect product cannot reasonably be replaced;
- A cancellation is accepted before production;
- A refund is otherwise approved under this policy;
- Another circumstance legally requires a refund.
Approval is determined based on the circumstances of the order.
24. Replacement Instead of Refund
Where an eligible manufacturing, printing, or fulfilment issue is confirmed, Flying Urban may generally offer a replacement as the primary resolution.
Depending on the circumstances, we may instead provide:
- Full refund
- Partial refund
- Replacement
- Re-shipment
- Store credit
- Another reasonable resolution
The appropriate resolution may depend on product availability, the nature of the issue, and the circumstances of the claim.
25. Replacement Product
If a replacement is approved:
- The replacement may be manufactured again through our fulfilment partner.
- The replacement may take normal production time.
- A new tracking number may be generated.
- Delivery will be subject to the applicable courier timeline.
- Replacement products are also subject to availability.
26. Refund Processing
If a refund is approved, it will generally be processed through the original payment method or another appropriate payment method.
The time taken for the refund to appear in your account may depend on:
- Payment gateway
- Bank
- Card issuer
- UPI provider
- Payment method
- Processing holidays
- Banking procedures
Flying Urban does not control the processing time of independent banks or payment providers.
27. Refund for Shipping Charges
Whether shipping charges are refundable depends on the reason for the refund.
Where an order is refunded because of a confirmed Flying Urban/fulfilment error, applicable shipping charges may be considered for refund.
Where the issue is caused by customer-related circumstances, applicable shipping or logistics charges may not be refundable.
28. COD Refunds
For eligible COD orders, if a refund is approved, Flying Urban may request appropriate bank/UPI/payment details to process the refund.
Customers should ensure that the details supplied for the refund are accurate.
Flying Urban will not be responsible for delays caused by incorrect refund information supplied by the customer.
29. Non-Returnable Situations
A product will generally not qualify for return, replacement, or refund where the issue is caused by:
- Customer selecting the wrong size
- Customer selecting the wrong colour
- Customer selecting the wrong variant
- Change of mind
- Personal preference
- Product no longer wanted
- Minor colour variation
- Minor print variation
- Minor placement variation
- Normal wear and tear
- Improper washing
- Improper ironing
- Improper care
- Accidental damage
- Customer misuse
- Damage occurring after delivery due to customer handling
- Incorrect shipping information provided by the customer
- Failure to accept a COD order
- Customer refusal of delivery
unless otherwise required by applicable law.
30. Fraudulent or Abusive Claims
Flying Urban reserves the right to investigate suspicious or repeated return, replacement, or refund claims.
We may restrict or reject claims where we reasonably identify:
- False information
- Manipulated photographs/videos
- Repeated fraudulent claims
- Product misuse
- Deliberate damage
- Abuse of the refund policy
- Other suspicious activity
This does not affect legitimate consumer rights available under applicable law.
31. Return Shipping
Where a return is approved, Flying Urban will provide instructions regarding the return process, if a physical return is required.
Customers should not independently ship products to any address unless instructed by Flying Urban.
Unauthorized returns may not be accepted or processed.
32. Product Disposal
For certain defective or damaged products, Flying Urban may not require the product to be physically returned.
Instead, we may request:
- Photographs
- Videos
- Product disposal confirmation
- Other evidence
This may depend on the nature of the issue and fulfilment-partner procedures.
Customers should not dispose of a disputed product until Flying Urban provides appropriate instructions.
