Under Nepal's courier regulation, the maximum weight limit per consignment for import parcels is 70 kgs, while that of exports is $5,000 of declared value. Any item that exceeds these limits should be sent via cargo booking. A commercial invoice is normally needed only when it involves business parcels that include product samples. Gifts or items intended for personal use require a customs declaration only. It depends on the import restrictions in the receiving country, as well as the declared value of the parcel. Most countries will have de minimis amounts up to which there is no duty applicable; for instance, in the case of the UK, the de minimis is £135. Nepal doesn’t have any de minimis, and therefore all items imported are duty assessable. We provide details of the expected duties based on destination at the time of booking. Commercially packed, shelf-stable packaged food items, like tea, coffee, dry spices, and instant noodles, can be dispatched internationally from Nepal depending on the destination’s food import guidelines. Perishable food products cannot be dispatched through any courier services. Countries like Australia, New Zealand, and USA have very strict biosecurity guidelines on importation of food items. As soon as your package is dispatched from Nepal and the Air Way Bill (AWB) is generated, you will be able to track your shipment through our tracking portal. Courier is best for parcels under 30–70 kg where door-to-door convenience and fast transit are priorities. Air cargo is more cost-effective for heavier commercial shipments (typically above 50 kg), where the lower per-kg rate offsets the less streamlined handling.
