Section 2

User Responsibilities

By using our services, you agree to the following:

Accurate information:You must provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information for all bookings, cargo declarations, and accounts. Providing false information may result in service refusal, legal liability, and account termination.
Lawful use only:You must not use our platform for unlawful purposes, including shipping prohibited items, money laundering, fraud, or facilitating illegal activities.
Cargo declaration:You are legally responsible for accurately declaring the contents, value, and nature of all cargo. Under-declaration, mis-declaration, or failure to declare restricted items is a criminal offence under Kenyan customs law.
Shipment details:You must give correct sender and recipient details and the actual weight, dimensions, and number of packages. Carriers check the weight and size of shipments, and you are responsible for any extra charges that result from incorrect details.
Packing:Unless we pack your goods for you, you are responsible for packing them well enough for international transport. Goods you packed travel at your risk, and carriers do not pay claims for damage caused by poor packing.
Inspection:We, the carrier, and customs or other authorities may open, inspect, and X-ray any shipment. By booking, you agree to this.
Your goods, your responsibility:You must repay us any fine, penalty, charge, damage, or claim we face because of your goods or the information you gave us, including goods that are prohibited, dangerous, wrongly declared, or badly packed.

All prices are quoted in Kenyan Shillings (KES) unless otherwise stated.
A quote is valid at the time it is given. Until you book, it may change with exchange rates, fuel surcharges, carrier tariffs, and other carrier surcharges and fees, which carriers may change at any time without notice.
Once your booking is made, its price is fixed. It changes only if you change the booking or the details you gave turn out to be incorrect.
Freight rates are based on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is greater.
Send proof of payment (screenshot or receipt) to our WhatsApp: 0725 125 975 for confirmation.
Services will not commence until payment is confirmed, except where a credit account has been agreed in writing.
Duties and taxes:Customs duties, taxes, and similar government charges are separate from freight charges, and the carrier normally collects them from the recipient. If the recipient does not pay them, or they are charged to us, you must pay them on receipt of our invoice or notice, and before release of the goods where we ask.
Refused or undeliverable shipments:If the recipient refuses a shipment or cannot be found, or customs or the carrier holds or returns it, you must pay the carrier's charges that result, including return, storage, and disposal. If you give no instructions in time, the carrier may return or dispose of the shipment.
Credit accounts:Credit is a privilege, not a right. Where we agree credit in writing, payment is due by the agreed date. If an account is overdue, we may withdraw credit, withdraw special pricing, and suspend services.

Section 4

Cancellation Policy

Cargo Shipping — Cancellation Policy

For Cargo Shipping (air, sea, land, door-to-door):

You may cancel a cargo shipment at any time before the carrier receives it. There is no notice period and no cancellation fee, and we refund what you paid. If we have already packed your goods, we keep the packing charge.

After the carrier has received your shipment, you may still ask us to cancel or recall it. Whether it can be stopped is the carrier's decision. We refund only the amount the carrier refunds or credits to us, after we receive it. From that amount we deduct the charges for services we have already provided, such as packing, and any return, storage, or duty charges. If the carrier refunds nothing, no refund is due.

Travel Packages — Cancellation Policy

For Travel Packages (Hajj & Umra, tourist packages, hotel bookings, tours):

Before we have made a booking for you, you may cancel and we refund what you paid, less the charges for services we have already provided.

Once we have made a booking for you, cancellation and refunds are decided by the airline, hotel, tour operator, or other body concerned, under its own policy. We refund only what that body refunds to us, after we receive it.

Visa Services — Cancellation Policy

For Visa Services (tourist, study, work, residence, Hajj visas):

Before we have lodged your application, you may cancel and we refund what you paid, less the charges for services we have already provided.

Once we have lodged an application for you, cancellation and refunds are decided by the embassy, consulate, or other authority concerned, under its own policy. We refund only what that body refunds to us, after we receive it. Government visa application fees are usually not refundable, whatever the outcome.

To cancel, contact us: 0725 125 975 or Skyzonecargo3@gmail.com.

Section 5

Refund Policy

M-Pesa refunds:Processed to the original M-Pesa number within 5–7 business days of approval.
Cash refunds:Available for collection from our Eastleigh office within 3 business days of approval.
Partial refunds:Where a partial refund is due, we will deduct any costs already incurred (processing fees, carrier charges and deposits, duties and taxes paid on your behalf, hotel deposits) before issuing payment.
Non-refundable items:Visa application fees, government levies, carrier charges already incurred, certain airline charges, and any service fees clearly marked as non-refundable at the time of booking.

Section 6

  • ✕Flammable liquids and gases

  • ✕Corrosive substances

Express shipments. For shipments sent by express carrier (FedEx), the carrier's own list of prohibited and restricted items also applies, and it is stricter than the list above. For example, it does not accept cash, and generally does not accept perishable goods, human remains, or live animals.

This list is not exhaustive. Contact us before shipping any item you are unsure about. We reserve the right to refuse any shipment at our discretion.

Section 7

Carrier Terms and Pricing

7.1 Carrier conditions:Every shipment is carried by a third-party carrier and is subject to that carrier's conditions of carriage, service guide, and air waybill in effect on the date of shipment. By booking, you accept them. FedEx publishes its conditions of carriage on fedex.com. Carriers may change their rates, surcharges, and fees at any time, and our quotes change with them as set out in Section 3.
7.2 Our prices:Our quotes are Skyzone's own prices for our services. They do not entitle you to any carrier's rates, discounts, or account terms, and we do not disclose the rates we pay to carriers.
7.3 Confidentiality:Prices we publish on our website are public. Any negotiated quote, trade price, or other commercial terms we give you are confidential. Do not publish them or pass them to other parties, except to your own professional advisers or where the law requires.
7.4 Space and volume:A carrier may refuse or delay a shipment, or waive its delivery commitments and money-back guarantees, where space is not confirmed or the volume or weight is well above what it expected.
7.5 Carrier changes:If a carrier changes its terms, withdraws a service, or our arrangement with that carrier changes or ends, we may change the carrier or service, change our prices for new bookings, or suspend the service. We will handle shipments already handed to a carrier as far as the carrier does.

Section 8

Liability Limitations

Carrier Liability

As a freight forwarder, we hand your cargo to a carrier. If cargo is lost or damaged while the carrier has it, our liability is limited to the amount the carrier pays us for that shipment under its conditions of carriage, and we pass that amount on to you in full. If the carrier pays nothing, we owe nothing.

Declared value:The carrier does not insure your goods. Its liability is limited under its conditions of carriage, usually by weight, unless you declare a higher value and pay the carrier's extra charge when you book. Some goods, such as jewellery, art, and antiques, have a lower limit whatever value is declared. For high-value goods we recommend arranging your own cargo insurance.
Claims:Claims for loss or damage follow the carrier's rules and time limits. Tell us in writing as soon as you know of a problem, and keep the box, packing, and documents, so that we can file within the carrier's limit. The recipient should note any damage when signing for the shipment. If the carrier rejects a claim, including for being late, we are not liable for it. A claim is considered only once the shipment's charges are paid, and you may not deduct a claim from charges you owe us.
Indirect loss:We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, such as lost income, profit, or business, however it arises.
Delays:Delivery times are estimates, and we do not refund charges for late delivery. We are not liable for delays caused by customs clearance, adverse weather, airline disruptions, strikes, or other circumstances beyond our direct control. A carrier's delivery or money-back guarantee is between the carrier and us, and the carrier may withdraw it (see Section 7.4).
Travel services:For travel packages, our liability is limited to the amounts recoverable from airlines, hotels, and tour operators. We are not responsible for acts or omissions of third-party service providers.
Visa outcomes:Visa processing assistance does not guarantee visa approval. This is at the sole discretion of the destination country's immigration authority. Application fees are non-refundable.
Force majeure:Neither party is liable for failure to perform obligations due to events beyond reasonable control: natural disasters, epidemics, government actions, war, or acts of God.
