Hi,
All items except arms and drugs(non medicines) can be shipped.Even the liquids.
The mode of shipment will be decided by the shipping authority.For electrical and electronic items,they are somewhat sensitive.So it may be shipped by surface mail and will take more time.
Customs clearence may be done before packing up the parcel.This is a special technique of packing which can be opened and closed at both countrys very easily,but also secure.i am not able to describe that here.
I cant tell you about the customs fees.From this country,that is not so high.But every country is having their own custom slabs.
Yes,you will get a call from your country's customs,if they hold it up.May be in the form of a letter.
Normally Indian customs dont hold up if there is IEC copy with the shipment.
I ship internationally almost regularly.
Sometimes there are snags.
But,I can tell you,there is no unique rule.
If the shipment dont budge,it has to be chased,thats all.
If there is a tracking #,its easier.,
Thanx,
Truly,
Amitava
