Postal articles intended for any permissible foreign destinations may be booked at any of the post office in India with specific declaration as to the contest land value PP form or No objection certificate from the Reserve Bank of India is required to be enclosed to the parcel depending upon the value of the goods being exported. No PP form/RBI”No objection certificate” is required if the value does not exceed Rs.30, 000. All such parcels are routed through the ‘foreign post offices’ located in major cities like Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta, Madras, Cochin, and Bangalore. Customs officers are posted in such ‘foreign post offices’. The postal authorities present the parcels meant to foreign destinations to the Customs officers who may examine the parcels and allow clearance if there is nothing objectionable. Thereafter, the postal authorities dispatch the parcels to the respective destinations either by air/sea, depending upon how the parcel is booked by the sender.
