Return & Refund Policy
At House of Velza, we strive to provide the best quality sarees and jewellery. Please read our Return & Refund Policy carefully before placing your order.
📹 Mandatory Unboxing Video for Any Return Claim
A valid unboxing video is mandatory for all return or damage claims. Claims without a valid unboxing video will not be accepted.
What is a Valid Unboxing Video?
To be considered valid, the video must meet all of the following conditions:
- Record the video within 24 hours of receiving the parcel.
- Start the recording before opening the package.
- Clearly show the parcel from all four sides (360° view).
- Ensure the shipping label and tracking ID are clearly visible.
- Record the entire unboxing process continuously without pausing, editing, or cutting the video.
- The video should clearly show the contents of the package as they are removed.
- The video must be clear, well-lit, and fully visible.
- While opening jewellery, please avoid handling long chains with one hand or twisting them, as this may accidentally cause damage.
Return requests for missing, damaged, or incorrect items will only be accepted if the issue is clearly visible in the valid unboxing video.

We accept returns only under the following conditions:
- The product received is damaged, defective, or incorrect.
- A valid unboxing video is provided as described above.
