Why Tamron Offers the Best Lens Warranty and Repair Support in North America

Tamron’s 6-year warranty is the longest and most comprehensive lens warranty offered by any major lens manufacturer in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Designed for long-term reliability, it brings together high-value perks, outstanding Tamron lens repair turnaround times, and expanded protection for unexpected accidents.

Quick Tip: Always look for the warranty sticker on the top of the lens box (hologram style for USA and Canada, traditional label style for Mexico).

Unlike generic or extended warranties, Tamron’s warranty is crafted specifically for the way photographers and videographers use their gear—often in rugged, unpredictable environments. Because of that, Tamron guarantees:

• Authorized HQ repairs only
• Fast turnaround times of approximately 5 days or less (excluding shipping time)
• High-quality original parts and precision calibration
• Exceptional phone and email support available in the USA, Canada, and Mexico

When you register your lens, you’re joining a support ecosystem dedicated to your imaging success.

Fast, Authorized Tamron Lens Repair With Original Factory Parts

Tamron’s defect ratio is extremely low. But if a repair is ever needed, Tamron’s authorized service center provides photographers with reliable, expert support.

What Sets Tamron Repair Service Apart:

• All repairs use original Tamron parts
• Factory-trained technicians handle every service

This means your lens is restored to optimal performance faster and with high precision—so you can get back to shooting.

Free Annual Lens Clean and Check Service

Your Tamron lens is built to perform, but regular maintenance keeps it performing like new. With your registration, Tamron includes a Free Annual Clean and Check—a value unmatched in the industry.

This Service Includes:

$50 Bonus Rebate on Your Next New Tamron Lens (USA & Canada Only)

As part of Tamron’s industry-leading warranty program, registered customers in the USA and Canada gain access to an exclusive $50 Bonus Rebate toward the purchase of their next new Tamron lens. This perk rewards loyal Tamron photographers and videographers and makes it easier to expand your creative toolkit with cutting-edge optics.

New registrants who purchase an eligible lens and opt in to Tamron emails will automatically receive a one-time-use $50 Bonus Rebate code delivered directly to their inbox.

How the Tamron Bonus Rebate Works

• Valid for one year from your original lens purchase date
• Applies to one new, current, in-production Tamron lens (lens must appear on the Tamron website at time of purchase; not valid on discontinued, used, or rental lenses)

This added value makes upgrading or expanding your Tamron system more affordable—especially when paired with seasonal instant savings or other promotions.

Stackable Savings for Even More Value

One of the most appealing aspects of this rebate is its flexibility. The $50 Bonus Rebate is:

• Stackable with instant savings
• Stackable with other rebates
• Stackable with EDU discounts

This exclusive perk underscores Tamron’s commitment to rewarding brand loyalty and delivering exceptional value with every lens purchase.

Free Replacement of Zoom and Focus Rubbers + 25% Off Replacement Lens Accessories

Another standout feature of the Tamron 6-year warranty is the added value of free and discounted replacement parts that help photographers keep their gear in peak condition. These perks—exclusive to registered lenses—ensure that your equipment remains fully functional and visually pristine for years.

Free Zoom and Focus Rubber Replacements

Over time, rubber components can wear out from heavy use, harsh environments, or simple aging. To keep your lens performing like new, Tamron offers registered owners:

• Free replacement zoom rubbers
• Free replacement focus rubbers

Registered customers can request replacement zoom and focus rubber(s) to be shipped directly to them, or they can send in their lens for professional installation during service or repair. Shipping charges apply. This benefit reinforces Tamron’s commitment to long-term durability, comfort, and professional-grade handling.

25% Off Replacement Hoods, Front Caps, and Rear Caps

Lens hoods and caps are essential for protecting optics—yet they’re also some of the easiest items to misplace or damage. Tamron makes it simple and affordable to replace them with original Tamron parts, ensuring perfect fit and performance.

Registered Tamron owners receive:

• 25% off replacement lens hoods
• 25% off replacement front caps
• 25% off replacement rear caps

This discount allows photographers to maintain full lens protection without overpaying for accessories. Shipping charges apply. Because these parts are genuine Tamron components, they meet the same design and quality standards as those included with your original lens.

These savings, paired with Tamron’s fast replacement process, contribute to an ownership experience that’s unmatched by any other lens manufacturer in North America.

7. What happens if my lens cannot be repaired?

If your lens is deemed unrepairable, Tamron will replace it with the same or equivalent model at no charge (in-warranty) or at a discounted rate (out-of-warranty).

8. How do I know if I purchased from an authorized Tamron dealer?

A list of authorized dealers is available on the Tamron Americas website. Purchasing from unauthorized sellers (gray market) will result in ineligible warranty coverage.

9. Are gray market Tamron lenses covered by warranty or eligible for repair?

No. Gray market Tamron lenses are not eligible for warranty coverage, cannot be registered, and cannot be repaired in the USA, Canada, or Mexico—even for a fee. These products are imported and sold outside of authorized distribution channels, meaning they do not meet Tamron Americas’ standards for service or support. None of the benefits of the Tamron 6-year warranty—such as accidental damage coverage, free annual clean and check, free zoom and focus rubber replacements, discounted accessories, or the $50 Bonus Rebate—apply to gray market purchases.

To ensure full protection and service eligibility, always purchase from an Authorized Tamron retailer or the TAMRON Store.
