Return & Refund Policy
UAB Elart — Last updated: September 2026
1. Overview
We aim to ensure that every customer is satisfied with their purchase. This policy explains your rights and the applicable process for returning products purchased from elartcom.eu. Our 30-day returns are a voluntary commercial policy for all customers (consumers and business customers alike), worldwide; EU/UK statutory rights are fully preserved.
2. Withdrawal Rights — Statutory and Voluntary
If you are a consumer (a natural person purchasing for personal, non-commercial purposes), you are generally entitled to withdraw from your purchase within 30 calendar days of the day on which you, or a person you designate, physically receives the goods — without being required to give any reason.
The statutory 14-day EU/UK withdrawal right (EU Directive 2011/83/EU on Consumer Rights, incorporated into Lithuanian law via the Civil Code) remains the base protection for consumer customers. The 30-day window is our voluntary commercial policy for all customers — consumers and business customers alike — and never limits that statutory right. It is subject to the conditions and exceptions described in Sections 4 and 5.
3. How to Exercise Your Right of Withdrawal
4. Return Conditions
To be eligible for a return, goods are generally expected to:
- Be in their original, unused, and uninstalled condition
- Include all original packaging, labels, documentation, and accessories
- Show no evidence of having been fitted to a vehicle or used beyond reasonable inspection
Where a returned item shows evidence of installation or use, we reserve the right to apply a deduction for diminished value or decline the return.
5. Exceptions — When the Right of Withdrawal Does Not Apply
In accordance with Article 16 of Directive 2011/83/EU:
Products procured specifically for your order that are not part of standard stock and cannot be returned to the supplier. Identified as non-returnable at ordering.
Where a protective seal has been broken after delivery (applicable to certain fluid or sealed products).
No statutory right of withdrawal. The voluntary 30-day return window described in Section 2 applies to business customers as well, subject to the conditions in Section 4. Defect claims are separate and must be submitted in writing within 14 days of receipt and are subject to assessment.

8. Defective, Damaged, or Incorrect Goods
Statutory guarantee — consumer customers (2 years)
Consumer customers are entitled to a 2-year statutory guarantee per EU law (Directive 2019/771). Where a product is found defective at delivery, you may request (in order):
- Repair or replacement of the affected product
- A proportionate price reduction or full refund, where repair/replacement is not feasible within a reasonable timeframe
Defects appearing within the first 12 months are presumed to have existed at delivery. See our Statutory Guarantee page for further detail.
