3.   Click “Accounts and Access” and select “Register for new Business Users” and follow the prompts to complete account setup.

Is it the Bill to Customer country or Ship to Customer country that triggers the applicable discounts?

The discount is based on the shipping address. The discount is not based on the billing address or country of ultimate destination (I.e., where the end user is located).

Will USP perform customs clearance for the shipments?

USP does not perform customs clearance for the shipments. International customers are responsible for paying all customs duties, taxes, and tariffs levied for importation. They can either appoint their own broker, or the courier company will do the customs clearance on customers’ behalf. The default incoterm for USP is CPT, which means that USP is responsible for the shipment of the item until the port of entry. If the customer uses their own courier account, the incoterm will change to EXW. The customer becomes responsible for the shipment as soon as USP delivers the product to the carrier.

What is the shipping method used in the Free Freight program?

Free Freight only includes shipment via FedEx/DHL/UPS. Customers are not eligible for free freight for shipments sent via FedEx Custom Critical or World Courier.

If I purchase the same USP Reference Standard to receive the available discount and the lot received reaches its assigned Valid Use Date before using all units purchased, can I exchange the unopened units with the new lot?

No, USP's Terms of Sale remain unchanged. All sales are final, and we cannot exchange one lot for another due to the situation described.
