Sending parcels from India to Switzerland

Switzerland is home to a well-established Tamil community and many Indian professionals in Zurich, Basel and Geneva. We deliver clothes, documents and gifts from India across the country.

Book online or on WhatsApp, and our pickup executive collects from your home in Chennai — or from partner locations across Tamil Nadu and South India. We weigh and check the parcel, prepare the invoice with your KYC, and hand it to the fastest international network for your chosen service. You get one AWB number to track from pickup to delivery.

Customs, duties & documents for Switzerland

Switzerland is not in the EU. Swiss customs may charge VAT and duty on imports above small value limits, as per Swiss rules, usually collected from the receiver.

From India, every export needs the sender's KYC (Aadhaar, PAN, passport, voter ID or driving licence) and an invoice listing each item and its value — we prepare it with you. Documents and certificates travel flat in secure envelopes. Never sent: perfumes, power banks, loose batteries, gold and cash (full list).
