UK Electrical Standards & Voltage Compatibility Notice
All corded electrical power tools and battery chargers sold by Biovertexa UK are engineered specifically for the UK 230V / 50Hz single-phase electrical supply and fitted with molded British Standard BS 1363 3-pin fused plugs (or yellow 110V 16A site plugs where explicitly stated).
International buyers outside the UK must verify voltage compatibility with their local electrical infrastructure. Biovertexa UK does not supply Europlug (Schuko) or US 120V models, and use of non-certified travel adapters voids the manufacturer electrical warranty.
Lithium-Ion Battery Air Freight Restrictions (IATA)
Under IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA):
- Standalone lithium-ion power tool batteries (e.g. 18V 5.0Ah or 54V FlexVolt packs) CANNOT be transported via air cargo to overseas destinations.
- High-capacity batteries can only be shipped via approved road and ferry surface transport networks. Overseas orders requiring air transport that include standalone lithium-ion batteries cannot be fulfilled and will be refunded immediately.
Customs Declarations & Import Duties (DAP / DDU)
For orders delivered outside the United Kingdom customs territory:
- Orders are dispatched on a Delivered at Place (DAP) basis.
- The recipient is solely responsible for paying any local destination import duties, clearance brokerage fees, and local value-added taxes imposed by destination customs authorities.
- Biovertexa UK attaches an official commercial invoice with accurate HS tariff codes (e.g. HS 8467.21 for drills) and exact purchase values. We do not under-declare values or mark goods as “gifts”.
UK Strategic Export Controls & Trade Sanctions
In strict compliance with UK Export Control Regulations and HM Treasury sanctions lists, Biovertexa UK will not export power tools, industrial laser equipment, or specialized hardware to sanctioned countries, embargoed territories, or prohibited entities. Any order flagged under global sanctions compliance will be terminated immediately.

- Goods must be safely returned to our Maidenhead hub in Berkshire, United Kingdom.
- For buyer’s remorse returns, the customer is responsible for international tracked shipping and customs export declarations.
