Shipping Hand-made Heritage to Your Doorstep.

• Good news first: your order ships free above Rs 10,000, fully tracked, and our team helps with payment and any question across the time difference. On customs, the United States is straightforward to plan for. There is no duty-free threshold anymore (the old USD 800 allowance was removed in 2025), so a textile parcel is charged import duty whatever its value.
• Plan for roughly a quarter to a third of your order value in import duty right now (about 24 to 30%, which includes a temporary 10% surcharge that applies to parcels from every country, not only India). There is no India-only penalty today.
• There is no national sales tax, though some states add their own. Duty and a small courier handling fee are paid to the courier on delivery. iTokri marks the parcel accurately to keep clearance smooth.

• Smaller orders are light. There is no customs duty at all on orders up to GBP 135, and the VAT on those is added at checkout, so nothing extra is due when your parcel arrives.
• Above GBP 135, expect about 12% customs duty on arrival, a duty the new UK-India trade agreement is set to remove once it takes effect.
• Import VAT is 20%. For orders up to GBP 135 sold to consumers, VAT is collected at checkout; above GBP 135 it is collected with the duty on delivery. Charges are paid to the courier.

• Australia is one of the lightest markets. Indian textiles enter with no customs duty at all, thanks to the India-Australia trade agreement, and a typical iTokri order sits well under the AUD$1,000 duty-free line.
• Customs duty: zero on Indian-origin goods. (The standard rate without the agreement would be about 5%.)
• The only charge is GST at 10%, and on orders up to AUD$1,000 it is usually handled at checkout rather than at the border.

• Your order ships free above Rs 10,000, fully tracked, and the care team handles any question or exchange personally. Canada is honest to plan for: its duty-free line for parcels from India is very low (CAD$20), so a textile order is charged customs duty on arrival.
• Expect about 16 to 18% customs duty on clothing and made-up textiles.
• Add GST at 5% federally, plus your province's sales tax (PST or HST, which is 13 to 15% in participating provinces). Charges are collected by the courier or post on delivery.

• The UAE is a light, predictable market. Small orders (about AED 300 or below in Dubai) arrive with nothing to pay.
• Above that, expect a 5% customs duty, which is often waived on Indian textiles under the India-UAE trade agreement when valid origin papers travel with the parcel.
• VAT is 5%. Charges are paid to the courier on delivery.

• France is straightforward for a typical order. VAT is usually collected at checkout, so most parcels arrive with nothing more to pay.
• Customs duty (about 12%) applies only above EUR 150 today. From 1 July 2026, a small flat EUR 3 per-item duty also applies to smaller parcels.
• French VAT is 20%, due from the first euro, collected at checkout for orders up to EUR 150 and by the carrier above that. Charges are paid to the courier where they apply on delivery.

• Singapore is one of the lightest markets, alongside Australia. Indian textiles enter with no customs duty at all, because Singapore is a free port and clothing is not a dutiable category.
• Customs duty: zero on textiles, for any value. The only charge is local tax.
• GST is 9%. On orders up to SGD$400 bought from a GST-registered seller, it is usually collected at checkout rather than at the border. Above SGD$400, GST applies on import.

• Italy is straightforward for a typical order. VAT is usually collected at checkout, so most parcels arrive with nothing more to pay.
• Customs duty (about 12%) applies only above EUR 150 today. From 1 July 2026, smaller parcels also carry a small flat EU duty plus a separate EUR 2 Italian handling contribution.
• Italian VAT is 22% (the highest of the three EU markets here), due from the first euro, collected at checkout for orders up to EUR 150 and by the carrier above that.

• Smaller orders are light. At or below MYR 500, your order skips border import duty and sales tax; instead a 10% low-value-goods tax is collected at checkout.
• Above MYR 500, import duty applies. The exact rate is set by the specific item (roughly 0 to 20%), so check the official figure for your order.
• Sales and Service Tax applies above MYR 500, alongside the duty, collected on delivery. The 10% low-value tax for smaller orders is paid at checkout.

• Germany is straightforward for a typical order. VAT is usually collected at checkout, so most parcels arrive with nothing more to pay.
• Customs duty (about 12%) applies only above EUR 150 today. From 1 July 2026, a small flat EU duty also applies to smaller parcels.
• German import VAT is 19% (the lowest of the three EU markets here), due from the first euro, collected at checkout for orders up to EUR 150 and by the carrier above that.

iTokri ships to more than 50 countries, all on the same flat, global terms: free above Rs 10,000 (about USD 100), a flat Rs 2,500 (about USD 25) below, fully tracked, dispatched in 24 to 48 hours. Customs duty and local tax depend on your country's rules and are paid to the courier on delivery, the same way they work for the countries listed above. As a rough guide, most countries charge their local sales tax or VAT, and many add a small customs duty above a duty-free threshold. Before you order, the most reliable figure is always your own country's customs website.
