Tai Swim is not responsible for delayed, lost or stolen packages. Once your items have left our warehouse & begun tracking, it's completely out of our hands.

Policies
High quality manufacturing is at the core of Tai Swim. All ordered items packed at our warehouse leave in perfect condition & we take extreme care in handling packages. Unfortunately our mail carriers do not, & your item may be altered in transit. Let us know if your item did not arrive in brand new condition, (incomplete stitching, discoloration, pilling). We will happily issue credit for manufacturing defects within 14 days after delivery on a case-by-case basis if you send the item back to us.
Granting credit is subject to approval & does not cover damages that occur in transit. We will ask for photos of your defective item & exact amounts issued will be dependent on the severity of the defect. While we pride ourselves on creating long-lasting swimwear & accessories, our quality guarantee does not cover usage beyond practical lifetime. This does not cover items purchased at our retailers or outside of the website. It additionally does not cover normal wear/tear & is not a lifetime warranty. Please read our care instructions carefully on every product page.
Tai Swim does not offer refunds under any circumstances. This includes price adjustments, retailer pricing differences, promotional events, incorrect purchases, final sale items, and delayed, lost, or stolen packages.
Eligible U.S. returns may be accepted for store credit only if unworn and requested within 14 days of the order date. International orders are final sale.

- All evidence, including order records, emails, photos, tracking, and policy screenshots, will be submitted in disputes.
- Customers who misuse the chargeback process will be banned from future purchases and may be investigated.
Tai Swim reserves the right to limit, refuse, or reject returns at our sole discretion, including but not limited to cases involving:
- Excessive or irregular return behavior (“wardrobing”)
