One of the important part of sending parcels at an internationally level, particularly outside of the India is making sure that the parcel is rightly labeled and declared to make sure appropriate tax and duty is applied.
Custom Import Duty and rules and restrictions are not set by package delivery companies but by neighboring governments in each country so you are simply as likely to have to pay no matter which business you use, so any claims you may listen to that some companies have not accused people tax or duty are incorrect, declaring items rudely can lead to fines or any similar charges and your parcel being go back, costing you even more to send it suitably next time.
All parcels departing to countries sent remote of the Indian will need a CN22 form completing and joining to the parcel. This form mentions what the parcel is and what is the estimated value is, the import duty will differ according to the value and what the item is. Excise duty also applicable to specific products which include perfume, alcohol and even cigarettes; this is charged by a sure proportion per kilo.
In case, the value is more than £100 then your parcel will require VAT paying as well as the appropriate documentation. These can be collected from Customs VAT Offices available near to you.
People who are sending gifts to relatives and even friends abroad can be excuse from these charges but again, there are limitations on predictable values, it should be at £40 or even less than that. This implies as long as you are sending a gift of £40 in value or less then you and the receiver will not be charged Import Tax and even VAT.
