Refund & Returns
Effective date: 1 June 2025 Β Β·Β Last updated: 9 June 2025
Organic Yellow sells raw, NABL-certified food products. Because our honey is a perishable food item, we are unable to accept returns for reasons of change of mind or personal preference once a product has been opened. However, we stand fully behind our quality β if something reaches you in damaged condition or is the wrong item, we will make it right, no questions asked.

1. Return Window
You have 7 calendar days from the date of delivery to raise a return or replacement request. Requests raised after this window will not be entertained unless an exception is warranted at our discretion.
2. Eligible Reasons for Return
We accept return or replacement requests for the following reasons:
Damaged product
The honey stick or jar was physically damaged, cracked, or leaking upon delivery β caused by transit handling.
Wrong item delivered
You received a different flavour, variant, or product than what you ordered.
Quality defect
The product shows visible signs of adulteration, foreign matter, or does not match the described product specification. Note: natural crystallisation of raw honey is not a defect.
Missing items
Part of your order was not included in the delivered package.
3. Non-Eligible Situations
The following situations do not qualify for a return, replacement, or refund:
- Change of mind after delivery.
- Products that have been opened, partially consumed, or tampered with.
- Dislike of taste or flavour β we encourage you to read product descriptions and consult our team before ordering if unsure.
- Natural crystallisation of honey, which is a sign of purity and not a defect.
- Damage caused by improper storage after delivery (e.g., exposure to high heat or direct sunlight).
- Return requests raised beyond the 7-day window.
- Subscription orders that have already been dispatched β cancellation must be done before dispatch.

- 3If a replacement is agreed, it is dispatched within 1β2 business days of approval.

6. Replacement vs. Refund
As a food brand, our default resolution for eligible requests is a free replacement shipped to you at no additional cost. This gets the right product into your hands as quickly as possible.
A full monetary refund to your original payment method will be issued in cases where replacement is not feasible β for example, if the product is out of stock, if you prefer a refund, or if we determine a refund is the most appropriate resolution. Refunds are credited in 5β7 business days; the exact timeline depends on your bank or payment provider.
7. Subscription Orders
Subscription orders that have already been dispatched are not eligible for cancellation or refund under this policy. If you wish to pause or cancel a future subscription cycle, please do so through your account dashboard or by contacting us before dispatch. Damaged or wrong items within a subscription delivery are still eligible for replacement under Section 2 above.
