Local duties
Please note that in some non-EU countries additional charges apply related to importation of foreign goods. In our experience duties vary between 3% and 25%, but sometimes more, depending on the country. Often a fixed handling fee is charged on top of the import duties. This fixed handling fee makes ordering multiple bottles attractive, as this fixed cost can then be divided over the various bottles.

We apply discounts when ordering several packages at the same time. The discount is applied to the total amount of the cart (before VAT and shipping costs). As follows:
| Packs or bottles | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
| DEKAs Bariatric | € – | € 5 | € 7,50 | € 10 |
| DEKAs Plus liquid, DEKAs Plus softgels, DEKAs Chewables, DEKAs Essential capsules or combinations of these |
5% | 10% | 15% | 20% |
| DEKAs Essential liquid, DEKAs Aqua-E liquid or combinations of these |
50% | 10% | 15% | 20% |

Does medical insurance cover DEKAs vitamins?
Insurance may cover the cost of DEKAs vitamins. Please ask your physician or dietician. If DEKAs is not covered it may be helpful if your physician or other health professional submits a letter of medical necessity to your insurance company. This letter should explain the patient’s condition (that results in malabsorption) and the need for the delivery technology used in the DEKAs multivitamins to overcome micronutrient malabsorption. Please contact us at info@dekasvitamins.com for any further questions.
Can I use DEKAs for other conditions?
A medical professional may decide that DEKAs vitamins are indicated for other conditions than Cystic Fibrosis, Cholestatic Liver Disease or Bariatric Surgery. Please consult your physician as DEKAs vitamins should be taken under medical supervision.
Can I use DEKAs without medical supervision?
No. When you purchase DEKAs we ask you to declare that you will take DEKAs under medical supervision only.
Can I order DEKAs vitamins without a prescription?
Yes. From the Webshop you can order without prescription, but DEKAs should be taken under medical supervision, so you should inform your doctor and/or dietician.
