About India

India is a vast country in Asia, bordered by a number of different countries: Pakistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Burma and Bangladesh. It is also surrounded by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean in the south. The country boasts a population of over 1.3 billion.

India is a popular tourist destination, with some of the major draws being the bustling city of Delhi and the instantly awe-inspiring Taj Mahal. That said, many of India’s citizens are very poor, and life outside of the main cities is vastly different to what you might expect.

What type of packaging can be used?

When sending your belongings to India with My Baggage, we recommend using either suitcases or strong cardboard boxes to package your items so they are suitable for transit.

We advise against using fragile or expensive suitcases, as packaging is not covered under our compensation cover. With regards to boxes, it’s always best to invest in a new, sturdy, double-walled cardboard box as they are most durable and suitable for transit.

If you are sending fragile or delicate items, we recommend using internal packaging to protect them during transit. You can use materials such as bubble wrap or newspapers.

Indian Customs Information

When shipping goods to India, you are legally required to complete and send a customs declaration with your shipment. Whether you’re sending personal effects or a gift to a loved one; if your shipment does not have a customs invoice attached, it will not make it past your local country border, and you may have to pay return charges to get it back. My Baggage will automatically provide you with the with appropriate customs documents for you to complete and attach to your shipment when you send your luggage to India.

Generally, My Baggage shipments clear customs in a timely manner, free from duties and taxes, as most countries offer a generous duty-free allowance for personal effects. However, as customs processes and allowances differ around the world, we do advise doing your own research into Indian customs regulations and quarantine before booking your shipment. Please make yourself aware of any potential customs duties in India.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The owner of the goods must be named as both the shipper and receiver on the booking in order for shipments to clear Indian Customs. Duty free clearance for unaccompanied personal effects is not guaranteed in India, and in some cases, the consignee’s physical presence may be required for clearance. My Baggage does not have any direct link or association with any customs authority, as such, we recommend contacting the relevant customs authorities in India before placing your booking, so that you are aware of the amount of duty and taxes which may be applicable to your shipment in particular.

In order to verify the name on the booking, customers will need to provide a copy of their passport matching the name on the booking. Additionally, a proof of address matching that of the delivery address will also be required to clear the shipment. In the case of an individual residing or visiting India on a temporary basis, a copy of their visa is required.

The following documents are acceptable proof of address:

Indian residents:

  • Aadhar Card
  • Bank Statement
  • Employee ID (if delivery is to your place of work)
  • Hotel Booking
  • Passport
  • Rent Agreement

Individuals residing or visiting India on a temporary basis:

  • Proof of address of person they are staying with
  • Hotel Booking
  • Rent Agreement
  • Stay Visa

Please note that in addition to these requirements, in some cases, Indian customs may request the consignee’s physical presence in order to clear the shipment. If the consignee is unable to present themselves, it may be possible to dispute this process with the relevant customs authority. Please also note that Indian Customs may apply additional charges for the clearance of personal effects. Charges may also apply where the receiver does not attempt to clear the shipment immediately. Again, we strongly recommend doing your own personal research into Indian Customs before booking your shipment to India.
