India Customs Duty & Taxes

Understanding customs charges helps avoid surprises when your parcel arrives in India.

When Does Customs Duty Apply?

India charges import duty on parcels with a declared value above INR 5,000 (approximately AED 220). Personal gifts sent between individuals may qualify for a higher exemption threshold, but commercial shipments are always subject to assessment.

Common Duty Rates

Electronics typically attract 15–20% duty. Clothing and textiles are charged around 10–15%. Documents and papers are duty-free. The receiver in India pays any applicable duty and GST at the time of delivery or customs clearance.

How We Help

We prepare accurate customs documentation with proper commodity descriptions and declared values, which helps your parcel clear customs smoothly and quickly. We also advise on how to structure shipments to stay within duty-free limits where possible.

For business

Shipping commercially to India?

Sending stock, samples or B2B orders — not a personal parcel? Commercial shipments to India need the right paperwork, and we prepare it for you. Here's what a business shipment usually needs:

  • ✓ A proper commercial invoice (value, contents, buyer & seller)
  • ✓ The correct HS code so duty is calculated right
  • ✓ For commercial shipments the Indian consignee usually needs an IEC (Import Export Code) and, at the port, an AD Code registration; GST applies on import. Duty is charged above a low value (gifts over about ₹5,000 are taxable).
