    Our Return Policy

    The Ancestry.com Satisfaction Guarantee
    ANCESTRY Store is the only place on the Web where you can shop for products devoted exclusively to celebrating, building, and strengthening family relationships. We realize that when you make a purchase with us, you are making an investment in your family, and we take this trust very seriously. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you may return it within 30 days of the shipping date for a refund.

    For defective, damaged, or mis-shipped items, your shipping costs will be refunded. Shipping cost refunds are based on your actual costs. Items returned via expedited shipping methods will only be refunded an amount equal to the least cost shipping method.

    Custom Products
    Due to the nature of custom products (i.e., personalized calendars, etc.), they are not eligible to be returned. In the event of an error, please notify customer service via e-mail at: orderstatus@myfamilyinc.com

    Please note: Ancestry.com cannot be held responsible for products sent to wrong addresses as entered in the checkout form.


    Return Instructions
    To return a product, please follow the instructions on the back of the packing slip that is included with your shipment.

    If you don't have a packing slip: Click here to print out a packing slip with our return instructions on it. You will need Adobe Acrobat software to read this file.

    A mailing label is included with your packing slip. If you have lost your mailing label, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-262-3787 for the correct return shipping address.

    For your protection, please send returned merchandise prepaid via standard UPS or any other delivery service that provides tracking. The US Postal Service does offer shipment tracking, if requested at the time of shipment. We cannot guarantee refunds if your return was sent using a delivery service that does not provide tracking.
    It may take 3 to 4 days to process your return. Credits are processed upon confirmation of the return and may take 10 to 15 days to appear on your credit card.
    Your name, address, order number, and return tracking number will be your proof of return.

    Please note: Returning an item may change or void any coupons, discounts, or refunds that are attached to your order.

    If you would like us to exchange or replace an item, please call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-262-3787 .

    Shipping Rates
    Shipping rates will depend on the size and weight of the package and the delivery address. Your shipping charges will be determined once you submit your order and will be shown on the Order Confirmation page.

    Special Handling
    Items that are oversized or weigh more than 70 pounds may require special handling and will likely ship separately from other items in your order. The shipping charges for these items are either indicated on their product detail pages or will be calculated for you at the last step of the purchase process before you place your order. This service includes delivery within 10 business days of shipment. These items may require a signature upon delivery. Once your order leaves our distribution center, the shipper may arrange a specific time for delivery and may contact you.

    Int'l Shipping
    Due to warranty issues and manufacturer restrictions, we are unable to ship the majority of our products internationally. We clearly mark those products that can be shipped internationally on the product detail page. Additional shipping charges may apply and the customer is responsible for all additional taxes, tariffs and duties that may apply.
