Walmart return policy: how many days you have
Walmart's standard window is 90 days for most items, 30 days for most electronics, and 14 days for phones. The clock starts at purchase in store or at delivery for online orders.
| What | Window |
|---|---|
| Most items | 90 days from purchase or delivery. |
| 30 days | Electronics such as TVs, computers, cameras, tablets, drones and video game hardware. |
| 14 days | Prepaid and postpaid cell phones (Verizon contract phones differ). |
| Major appliances | Report damage within 2 days of delivery. |
| Not returnable | Gift cards, prepaid cards, some health and personal-care items, firearms and ammunition, and others listed on the policy page. |
Compiled from the store's published policy and recent summaries; the official page could not be read by machine, checked 2026-10-27. Policies change; the store's page is the final word: Walmart returns.
Tip
Electronics should be factory-reset and in the original packaging. Walmart Marketplace (third-party) items follow the seller's window, which can be shorter.
