Anyone else had any problems with sending to India

Post by adam.davies »

We've had to suspend all our Indian customers as parcels going out (we use international tracked) have not left Langley since early Jan 2022 (last status: Item Received by Royal Mail LANGLEY HWDC)
We always check also on the India post website just to make sure that they haven't arrived there and are hanging around

Anyone else had issues with parcels going to India?

I've posted some international tracked items to India over the past few months. They have been delivered in about 7-10 days but had no tracking info supplied from within India/India Post at all.

After London AMU there is no tracking until it's released by Indian customs - London AMU means it's been put on a plane.

The only item I have sent that was tracked to delivery in India recently was one that was sent international signed (not tracked).

As such, I would check with the recipient if needed. They have probably been delivered regardless of the lack of tracking by India Post.

Quite a few people on this forum have had issues with no tracking recently once items arrive in India
