Sending parcels to India
Shipping to India from the UK
With strong commercial links and a rapidly growing economy, Evri makes it easy and convenient for shipping to India from the UK. From New Delhi to Mumbai, and even to nearby countries with our post to China and shipping to Hong Kong services, we'll make sure your parcel arrives in a timely manner.
How much is it to send a parcel to India from the UK?
While India might be halfway around the world from the UK, we’ll always aim to give you a great service at a low price no matter the distance. Our parcels are priced per 250g, so you’ll never have to pay more than you need when you provide the exact weight of your parcel. You can send parcels up to 15kg anywhere with Evri.

Indian national holidays
While we aim to deliver parcels to India within 13 to 15 days , there may be cases where times are increased due to certain local holidays. We’d recommend checking if your parcel could arrive on any of the following days to avoid this:
- Republic Day – 26/01/2024
- Independence Day – 15/08/2024
- Mahatma Gandhi’s Birthday – 02/10/2024
In addition to national holidays, India is also home to lots of regional and religious holidays that could increase delivery times. Try and send your parcel earlier around these dates to make sure your parcel arrives on time.
