Please also allow extra time for Royal Mail to deliver your package, as you can imagine the demand for their services has increased exponentially and we know the amazing team at Royal Mail is doing everything they can to get your orders to you on-time.

Here at MyCigara, our thoughts go out to anyone impacted by COVID-19.

Our leadership and management teams are focused on this objective, while also ensuring the safety and well-being of our team members and customers.

Will my Shipping be Affected?

Royal Mail and other courier services are still operating as normal, and have a lot of emergency measures in place to ensure that their services will continue throughout the crisis. There are changes to any signed for delivery - parcels will be placed on your door before they ring the bell and the delivery person will stand back ready for you to answer.

If you are not at home you will be left a card with instructions on how to arrange re-delivery. You will no longer be asked to physically sign for the parcel, but you will be asked for your name which the delivery person will enter into the handheld device on your behalf.
