Moving to India — Luggage Shipping? We ship luggage, suitcases, boxes and personal effects to India — Luggage Shipping door-to-door (subject to your destination) from the UK — everything from a few boxes to a full relocation. Whether you need to send luggage ahead, ship suitcases, or move boxes of belongings, we collect, handle your UK customs export entry, and deliver, so your move to India — Luggage Shipping is one less thing to worry about.
Indian Customs require a Baggage Declaration Form and a detailed itemised list. Transfer of Residence (TR) status significantly reduces import duties for returning Indian nationals. NRIs relocating permanently to India should declare TR status at customs.
India is one of our most complex routes — not because the logistics are difficult, but because the documentation requirements vary significantly depending on whether the customer is an Indian national, a returning NRI claiming TR status, or a foreign national relocating for work. We ask the right questions at booking to get the classification right.
For official customs requirements, import duties and restricted items guidance, visit the CBIC India — the official customs authority for India. Always verify current requirements before shipping.
