07 March 2011 What be sent:All types of goods can be sent through the courier mode into India and out of India except few articles. The goods which are prohibited for import through courier are:
Animals & parts thereof or plants & parts thereof,
perishable goods,
publications containing maps showing incorrect boundaries of India,
Gold or silver in any form,
Precious and semi precious stones & Studded jewellery,

Chemicals of chapter 28, 29 & 38 of the first schedule to Customs Tariff Act which need testing

Similarly, the export of the following goods are also restricted:
Goods which are subject to levy of any duty on their export,
Goods proposed to be exported with claim for Draw Back of Customs duty,
Goods exported under Duty Entitlement Pass Book Schemes or Duty Exemption Scheme or Export Promotion Capital Goods Scheme, and
Goods where the value of consignment is above Rs. 25,000/- and Waiver from the RBI not to bring in Foreign Exchange is not available,

please noted that Packages upto 70 Kgs. of weight can be imported to India through courier mode. However, there is no such weight limit for export of goods through courier from India.

Under these schemes additional paper work is involved and, therefore, it delays clearance of this packet and in addition clearance of other packages is also delayed. However, these consignments can be cleared through the air-cargo complex by the same courier company. Invariably the air cargo complex and the courier terminal are situated side by side and, therefore, there is no inconvenience to the exporters.
