If you receive an order in which an error has been made, you must notify our customer service department by telephone or email within five (5) working days of receipt of the order to correct the order and/or to obtain an RMA (Return merchandise authorization number) for any products to be returned. The product must be unopened and returned within ten (10) days from the receipt of the RMA to the VIVA Life Science headquarters address.

If you do not receive the number of boxes as invoiced at the same time, wait three (3) business days in case shipment is split or delayed. If the remainder of the boxes do not arrive by that time, notify our customer service department for further assistance.

In the event that damaged merchandise is received, follow these steps:

1. If the outside shipper box is not damaged, accept the delivery.
2. If the outside shipper box is damaged you may refuse the shipment and it will be returned to VIVA headquarters (call customer service and inform them of the damage and return). If you do accept the shipment, document on the delivery receipt the number and description of damaged boxes, and get the delivery person’s signature as well.
3. Save any damaged products and boxes that you want to return. Customers must notify VIVA’s customer service by telephone or email within five (5) working days to obtain an RMA number. Merchandise must be returned within ten (10) days from the receipt of the RMA number.

Payment:
Purchases may be paid by money order, cashier’s check, personal check (if approved), MasterCard, VISA, American Express, and Discover Card. All return checks will be subject to a $15.00 returned check charge. VIVA will not accept checks from customers whose checks have been previously returned.

Sales Tax:
With some exceptions, most of VIVA’s merchandise is subject to sales tax. To ensure that state sales tax requirements are met, it is the policy of VIVA to collect and remit all applicable sales tax. The amount of sales tax is based upon VIVA’s highest published price of the product calculated at the local tax rate of the location where the products are being shipped, or if the products are not being shipped, at the point of purchase. However, an IMR (Independent Marketing Representative) who wishes to personally collect and remit sales tax must furnish VIVA with a true and correct copy of a current state Resale Tax Certificate showing a Resale Tax Number. Upon receipt, VIVA will no longer collect and remit sales tax from that IMR.

Pricing:
Prices for each product are published and maintained on this web site. All customers are able to place online orders on the site. Please contact our customer service department if you have any questions regarding our policies, pricing (subject to change without notice), and availability.

Promotion:
All free products will ship with your outgoing order(s). No volume is earned on “FREE” products. Our promotions apply to U.S. Distributors and customers, with U.S. volume only.
