Shipping & customs

What we can actually ship to India

We don't just say yes to everything — we checked India's actual import and customs rules before deciding what to offer. Below is every category we deal with, grouped by how straightforward it genuinely is, with the real reason behind each one.

This is a practical guide based on a research pass (October 2026), not legal advice. Customs rules, duty rates, and thresholds change, and individual shipments can always be held for inspection regardless of category. We'll always tell you honestly if something looks risky for your specific order before you pay for anything.

The one number that matters most

India's duty-free threshold for a gift parcel sent by post or courier is just ₹5,000. Once you add shipping to most real products, you're usually over that — so expect Indian customs duty on most orders as the normal case, not a rare exception. We factor an estimate of this into the total cost we quote you before you order, so there's no surprise bill when the parcel arrives.

Still not sure about something?

If what you want isn't obviously in one of the categories above, just ask — we'll check the specific product before confirming anything, the same way we check price and availability.
