Dear all.swap.cards ,

The rates for Australia through SpeedPost Service of INDIA POST would be Rs.425 for the first 250 gms and Rs.75 for every additional 250 gms.

Any other custom charges would be extra.

Extra charge of Rs. 50/- for merchandise items.

Maximum Weight Limit is 35 Kgs.

Packaging & handling is also extra.

I hope this information serves your purpose.

kind regards

Hi,
If you are buying wooden items (some other items, you can find it from australian customs website), make sure you ask the seller to fumigate it. Otherwise it will go into quarantine and it will end up a lengthy and costly process.
As Ind concepts mentioned speedpost is the best way and it is trackable from australian post website.
Kind regards
