Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer free shipping?

As Pause Journals is based in Dubai, we currently offer free shipping on all orders within the UAE. For international orders, shipping rates apply.

What is your return/exchange policy?

Due to the nature of our journals, we’re unable to accept returns or exchanges, with all sales being final. We encourage you to review your order and the journal features before purchasing.

However, if your journal arrives damaged during shipping, please contact us at hello@pausejournals.com within 7 days of receiving your order, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes! We currently offer international shipping to select countries below. Shipping charges are calculated at the checkout based on package weight, and you’ll receive an estimated delivery time along with a tracking link once your order is placed.

Please note that international orders may be subject to duties, fees, and import taxes upon delivery. These charges are determined by your local customs authority and must be paid directly to your local carrier or government. Pause Journals does not collect or cover these fees, so we recommend checking with your local customs office for more details before placing your order.
