Our international move consultant visits your Mumbai residence or office to conduct a detailed inventory assessment. We evaluate items requiring special packing, calculate volumetric weight, discuss prohibited/restricted items for your destination country, and provide a comprehensive quotation covering all costs—packing materials, freight charges, insurance, customs brokerage, and destination delivery. Virtual survey option available via video call with detailed room-by-room walkthrough for faster processing.
Once you confirm, our documentation team prepares all necessary export paperwork: commercial invoice with HS code classification, detailed packing list with item-wise valuation, IEC (Import Export Code) verification, GST registration check, IGST exemption under LUT (Letter of Undertaking), passport and visa copies, destination country customs declaration forms, and marine insurance policy. We guide you through every document requirement and handle all government portal submissions on your behalf to ensure smooth customs clearance.
On the scheduled moving day, our trained packing crew arrives at your Mumbai address with all necessary materials and equipment. We conduct a final walkthrough, label rooms and items according to our international packing protocol, and begin systematic dismantling of furniture, appliances, and fixtures. All high-value items are photographed for insurance records, and a pre-packing condition report is prepared and signed by both parties to document the state of goods before transit.
Our ISO-certified packing team uses export-grade materials designed for long international sea or air journeys. Furniture is wrapped in corrugated sheets and bubble wrap before custom wooden crate construction. Electronics receive anti-static packaging and foam cushioning. Fragile items like glassware, artwork, and crockery get individual wrapping with vacuum-sealed protection. Clothing and linens are packed in waterproof wardrobe cartons. All boxes are labeled with origin-destination markings, handling instructions, and barcode tracking labels for complete visibility throughout the journey.
Packed goods are transported to JNPT (Nhava Sheva) for sea freight or CSMIA for air freight. Our licensed customs broker files the Shipping Bill electronically through ICEGATE, submits all supporting documents to customs authorities, arranges physical examination if required, obtains LEO (Let Export Order), and generates the Bill of Lading or Air Waybill. We handle all port charges, terminal handling fees, stuffing/destuffing supervision, container sealing, and fumigation certification if mandated by destination country agricultural departments.
Your shipment departs Mumbai via scheduled vessel or flight to the destination country. Throughout the ocean/air transit, you receive regular tracking updates via email and SMS showing current location, estimated arrival dates, and any transit delays. Our global network of partner agents monitors the shipment at each transshipment hub. For sea freight, goods may transit through major hubs like Singapore, Dubai, or Rotterdam depending on the final destination. Complete shipment visibility through online tracking portal with real-time status updates.
Upon arrival at the destination port/airport, our overseas partner agent receives the shipment and initiates customs clearance formalities. They submit the import declaration, Bill of Lading, packing list, commercial invoice, and any destination-specific documents (certificate of origin, sanitary certificates, etc.). Applicable customs duty, VAT/GST, and port charges are calculated and paid. Some countries offer duty exemptions for used household goods under transfer of residence provisions—we ensure you benefit from all available concessions. Clearance typically takes 2-5 working days depending on the country.
After customs release, goods are transported from the destination port to your new international address via road freight. Our delivery team schedules a convenient delivery window, brings appropriate equipment for furniture reassembly, and unloads all items into designated rooms as per your instructions. Optional unpacking service includes removing all packing materials, unwrapping and placing items, basic furniture assembly, and debris removal. Final delivery checklist signed off after confirming all items received in good condition, completing your international relocation from Mumbai.

Every international shipment from Mumbai is protected with marine cargo insurance covering all risks during transit—sea/air transport, loading/unloading, port handling, inland transportation, and destination delivery. Our insurance policy covers at 0.1–0.5% of declared value (extendable to ₹10 crores for high-value shipments) against loss, damage, theft, fire, natural calamities, vessel accidents, and force majeure events. Insurance premium is calculated at 0.1-0.5% of declared shipment value depending on destination and mode of transport. We assist with accurate valuation declaration using purchase receipts, online pricing, or professional appraisal. In case of damage, our claims team handles the entire process—surveyor appointment, documentation, claim filing, and settlement—ensuring quick resolution and compensation.
IEC (Import Export Code): Mandatory 10-digit identification number issued by DGFT for exports from India. We verify your IEC status or guide you through quick online registration (processing time: 1-2 working days). For NRIs relocating personal effects, IEC requirement is often waived with proper declaration.
GST & IGST Treatment: Export of household goods attracts 18% IGST, but can be exempted through Letter of Undertaking (LUT) filed via GST portal. We handle LUT filing and ensure your export is tax-neutral. For non-GST registered individuals, we process shipments under exemption categories for personal effects and used household goods.
Commercial Invoice & Packing List: Detailed documentation showing item-wise description, quantity, value, and HS code classification (8-digit Harmonized System code). We prepare professionally formatted invoices acceptable to both Indian customs and destination country authorities, ensuring smooth clearance at both ends.
Shipping Bill: Primary export document filed electronically through ICEGATE (Indian Customs EDI Gateway). Contains shipper details, consignee information, port of discharge, commodity description, and FOB value. Our licensed customs broker processes shipping bill generation and obtains LEO (Let Export Order) from Mumbai customs.
Bill of Lading (B/L) / Air Waybill (AWB): Transport document issued by shipping line or airline serving as receipt of goods, contract of carriage, and document of title. Original B/L required for customs clearance at destination. We ensure accurate consignee details and notify party information to prevent clearance delays.
Mumbai's JNPT (Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust) at Nhava Sheva handles majority of containerized international cargo, while Mumbai Port Trust serves break-bulk and specialized cargo. Our customs clearance team operates with Customs House Agent (CHA) license, authorized to represent you before Indian Customs authorities. The process includes electronic filing of shipping bill, risk management system assessment (RMS) for examination requirement, physical supervision if flagged by customs, sealing of containers after stuffing, port entry permissions, terminal handling coordination, and generation of export general manifest (EGM). Average clearance time at JNPT is 6-12 hours for household goods under green channel (no examination) and 1-2 days if physical examination is required.
Each country has unique customs requirements for importing household goods. USA requires Form 3299 (Declaration for Free Entry of Unaccompanied Articles) and passport copy; duty-free entry available for returning residents. UK offers Transfer of Residence relief for returning UK residents after living abroad for 12+ months. UAE provides duty exemption on used household goods for residence visa holders. Australia and New Zealand have strict biosecurity laws requiring fumigation certificates and detailed item declaration, especially for wooden furniture and outdoor equipment. Canada uses Form BSF186 for duty exemption under settler's effects provision. Singapore applies 7% GST on CIF value of imports. Our documentation team prepares country-specific paperwork and guides you through destination customs requirements to minimize duty liability and ensure compliant clearance.
Accurate HS code classification is crucial for correct customs duty assessment and regulatory compliance. Household goods typically fall under HS codes 9403 (furniture), 8418 (refrigerators), 8450 (washing machines), 8528 (televisions), and 6301-6304 (textiles/linens). Our documentation team assigns appropriate 8-digit HS codes for Indian export and destination country equivalent codes. Valuation is based on depreciated value for used goods—we follow Indian Customs valuation rules considering age, condition, and original purchase price, typically applying 10-20% annual depreciation for household items.
Certain items cannot be shipped internationally or require special permits: Prohibited: narcotics, weapons, explosives, hazardous chemicals, counterfeit goods, animal products without permits, and flammable liquids. Restricted: food items (especially to USA, Australia, New Zealand), prescription medicines (require doctor's prescription and quantity limits), alcohol (duty applicable, quantity limits vary by country), plants and seeds (phytosanitary certificate required), antiques (export permit from Archaeological Survey of India if over 100 years old), and high-value jewelry (recommend carrying personally, if shipping requires detailed valuation and high insurance). Our pre-move survey identifies any problematic items and advises on alternatives or documentation requirements.
For commercial exports mixed with household goods, we screen against current anti-dumping duties imposed by destination countries on specific Indian products (particularly steel, chemicals, textiles). We also verify consignee and destination against OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) sanctions lists, UN security council sanctions, and destination country denied party lists to ensure regulatory compliance and prevent shipment seizure or legal complications.
