Sending parcels from India to UAE

Lakhs of families from Tamil Nadu and Kerala live and work across the Emirates. Our India to UAE service is popular for home food, festival clothes, documents and small business samples, with doorstep pickup and clear customs paperwork.

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.
