Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
Thanks for replying bro,
It marked as gift, no invoice attached, so on which basis they calculate duty?, its a Chinese android phone costing 8500 INR, and how does they value this phone? as it is a Chinese device, with no exact market price available

Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
Is it Air Parcel or Airmail?
If no invoice attached, then the valuation for customs duty calculation will be done based on
"the price of the goods ordinarily sold or offered for sale"
. Generally duty is in the range of 1000/- to 3000/- INR.
If its Airmail, customs people
generally
clear the item duty-free.

It starts with
R
. So its Registered Airmail. Hopefully you'll get the item duty free. Fingers crossed

Hehe. MAGIC
Your parcel reached Patna today and has been bagged for LOHIA NAGAR. Hopefully, you'll receive it tomorrow or day after.
For tracking within India (after customs clearance), use:

Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
hey guys, i received my parcel after 2 months, and best thing is, without any duty. So folks now i am sharing a unique way to get cleared your parcel from custom quickly, if your item stuck in custom for more than 1 or 1 n half months lodge a complaint on ''PUBLIC GRIEVANCES'' (
http://pgportal.gov.in/Grievance.aspx
), they also respond in 15-20 days but they will make sure your parcel wont stuck in custom for unacceptable days/reasons, lastly i wana thanks to ''nairitb'' for sharing quality information, nairitb told me to file R.T.I for my parcel, from there i got this idea of ''PUBLIC GRIEVANCES'' compliant cell. i am also attaching screenshot of PUBLIC GRIEVANCES my complaint status and my tracking ID is ''RQ208459380SG'' so you all can have idea of the time taken . Thanks

Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
I've ordered a battery (for tablet) from Aliexpress.com (costing around 9 $). It has been over a month now and I've not yet received it. The tracking status is as follows:
Local Date and Time Country Location Event Type Mail Category Next Office
5/13/2014 10:40:00AM SWEDEN SINGAPORE Insert item into bag (Otb) Air DELHI INTERNATIONAL MAIL CENTRE
5/13/2014 8:50:00 PM SWEDEN SINGAPORE Send item abroad (EDI-received) Air DELHI INTERNATIONAL MAIL CENTRE
5/20/2014 2:22:01 PM INDIA DIMC NEW DELHI Receive item at office of exchange (Inb) Air DELHI INTERNATIONAL MAIL CENTRE
5/20/2014 4:09:30 PM INDIA DIMC NEW DELHI Send item to domestic location (Inb) Air APSO FOREIGN MUMBAI (IFR)
5/21/2014 1:45:56 PM INDIA MUMBAI AIR Send item to customs (Inb) Air MUMBAI FOREIGN POST OFFICE
It is in the same status since last 15 days. Do I need to do anything about this. I've read this forum but the posts do not have something similar to this. Their status was either retained bu customs or it was with Post.
Please help.

Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
@GauravVij, At least your status says that it is held at the customs. Mine doesn't say anything like that. I'm worried because of that

Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
Send item to customs
is almost similar to
Record item customs information
From my experience, Send item to customs is used in case of Registered Airmail (generally duty free). Record item customs information is used when they'll calculate duty on it and then send to destination location.
Anyway, customs inspection can take 1 day, 5 days or even 2 months! You can check the posts of
rammy1991
in this thread to get an idea. All you can do is wait for 15-20 days from the day when item is sent to customs. If no updates till then, register a complaint.
In any case, you'll get or parcel. Don't worry.

Re: All customs / parcel discussions for non-RC items
hello friends
I bought a chinese mobile phone from aliexpress, and they shipped it through singapore post and it landed in india on 1st of june. now on 4th june, i got a notice from local customs office that they have detained my parcel. and i have to submit a few documents such as purchase invoice and others ( as discussed in this thread )
when i went to local office, and showed them all documents. i have purchase invoice of 46 USD, i showed all the documents to the officer. he told me that i ll have to pay flat 42% import duty. i was ready for that. but he added i will have to pay penalty also, and that will be around minimum 6000 INR. he told me to submit an application and give all documents, if i am ready to pay penalty + duty. he told me within 7 days of submitting documtns i ll receive parcel at my home and i ll have to pay penalty + duty to the postman. i didnt submit the documents at tht moment. i told him i ll think and then come back on monday
frankly, i was not aware of this penalty when i ordered mobile. is that legal?? this penalty thing?? what can i do now ?? pls help me

Send the documents by Speed Post to the Assisstant Commissioner of the customs office which handled your case. See what happens. If still charged with penalty, then you can (if you want) send the item back for re-assessment asking why you have been charged penalty.

I asked him what was the penalty for.? he told me that you can not import mobile or other electronic items through post. :confused: I was shocked.. dont know what to say.
