Normally we do not ship outside India ( except in some cases) but if there are group (5 min) purchases (one recieving address) we can ship to Taiwan and Australia. The price would be USD 399 per piece (USD 1995 for the 5 piece lot) + shipping ($220 per 5 piece set). If your country has customs/ boundary taxes that you will need to take care of that.
