International Ordering.

Orders shipped to US Military addresses and US Possessions and Territories are NOT international orders if the USPS or US Military delivers your mail.

At this time we are not taking online orders for international customers due to very high shipping costs.
Exceptions: We will email an itemized PayPal invoice for secure online payment.

  • E-Book Orders: please, let us know item name and ISBN. We will email an itemized PayPal invoice.
  • Print Orders: If you still wish to order print books and understand that the Internation SH is very expensive, we can send you an itemized PayPal invoice if you let us know the product name and ISBN.
  • Online Courses: For online courses, we need:
    • Name of your school or homeschool
    •Email address
    •Product name and ISBN

NOTE: It takes longer to process international orders and we may have to contact you for more information.
It could take up to two weeks or longer to receive online access from the publisher. Hope you understand.

US Military Addresses and US Possessions and Territories:

  • Orders shipped to US Military addresses and US Possessions and Territories are not considered international orders if the USPS or US Military delivers your mail.
    These orders do take longer to be delivered.
    We suggest that you ship with the USPS Priority Mail Upgrade if you need your order quickly.
  • HMH Online Courses:
    Please contact us before you order!
    We need additional information because HMH considers these to be international orders.

If shipping rates drop, we’ll add international orders back to the shopping cart. We apologize for the inconvenience.

  • You can place your order online, but we will need to adjust the shipping because it is a custom quote.
  • After you place your order, we will contact you with the International SH Link to pay for upgrading the shipping your order.
  • With your permission, we will adjust your order total.
  • We can also give you a shipping quote before you order. Please email or call
  • It takes longer to process and ship international orders. Please allow extra time.
  • If you need your order faster, please call us to place your order and to discuss shipping options.
  • International Shipping and Handling does not include import fees, duties, and taxes. They are the responsibility of the customer.
  • UK Customers Please tell us your country (England, Scotland, etc.) For some reason, the USPS won’t let us use UK.

Quotes and Invoices

  • If you prefer (or if your country isn’t listed), we can prepare a custom quote with two payment choices:
    • Send you a PayPal invoice for secure online payment at PayPal.
    • Email a custom link to our shopping cart with your order total and pay online with our secure shopping cart.
  • Please let us know what you would like to order in an email, along with your name and shipping address.

  • If you need your order faster, please call us to place your order and to discuss shipping options.
  • Most often we ship international orders via USPS Global Priority Mail, but sometimes we get a better rate with FexEx or another carrier. We always try to get the best rate for each international package.
  • Shipping Insurance is Optional at an additional charge: If you want insurance (if it is available) please specify.
  • Any lost or damaged shipment becomes the responsibility of the customer once we deliver it to our Post Office.
  • UK Customers Please tell us your country (England, Scotland, etc.) For some reason, the USPS won’t let us use UK.

International Duties, Import Fees, Taxes

  • International SH does not include import fees, duties, and taxes.
  • They are the responsibility of the customer.

What if more items can fit in the box?

  • Sometimes we can fit more items in the box for the same international SH quote.
  • If so, we will let you know, in case you want to add more items to your order.

How Long Does Does It Take?

  • Once we ship, USPS Global Priority Mail takes about 6 to 10 days, depending on how long it takes to clear your country’s customs department.
  • Occasionally we ship smaller items by USPS First Class Mail because it is less expensive for you. They don’t say how long it takes, but it is generally efficient, though not as fast as the priority mail.
