Do I need an account?
Starting a return requires signing into your Temu account, and Temu login is gated by an emailed/SMS one-time verification code that a headless order-number+email flow cannot pass.
Window, fees & policy notes
90-day return window (45/60 days for some electronics/large appliances); first return per order is free, subsequent same-order returns cost $7.99 + tax deducted from refund; no restocking fee but refund is reduced for used/damaged/incomplete items not the seller's fault; no in-store returns (carrier drop-off/kiosk only); must ship within 14 days of the request.
What you do yourself
Gotcha: Ship within 14 days of submitting the request or the return is auto-cancelled; the first return per order is free, but each additional return on that same order deducts $7.99 + tax from your refund.
