Last update I got from IPS Web Tracking is – “KOLKATA AIR FOREIGN Send item to customs (Inb)” on 4th of May 2012. It is a small item costing $90 approximately gifted to me by my son from USA through Priority Registered Mail USPS. Label number is RA953634027US. It took only 7 days to reach “KOLKATA AIR FOREIGN,Send item to customs (Inb)”, but after that for last 5 days there is no update! The item is a tiny used print server for my printer, neither a banned item nor a costly item attracting customs duty. Is it customary for our customs department to hold on to an item without any valid reason? After that of course there will be the mandatory delay by our efficient Postal service.
Haha, its good that you’re seeing things from the lighter side. It is not a rule that only costly items attract customs duty. Normally, any electronic item attracts ‘some’ customs. Your product will be released by the customs in a few days and you will probably be required to pay the duty levied to the postal department who will deliver it to you.

You can either do nothing and wait for weeks (or more) for the customs to handover it to Indian Post, who will then call you to pay the required customs fee and collect the item or you can call the Mumbai customs (Google for their phone numbers) and ask about your item. As it says, they couldn’t know the value of the item for them to put applicable customs tax. You provide them the purchase invoice and it’ll be done.

The parcel received @ mumbai post office on 10 Jan 12 & it was detained by customs on 12 Jan 12.Here what customs department do is they allocate local number to each parcel. e.g 499 in my case.This local number is not published on IPS tracking website. You need to call them on below numbers (only for Mumbai FPO) & ask them for ur local number.Keep handy your usps tracking number.
022-22653621-mostly worked in my case.
022-22614488
022-22611791
022-22613780
022-22611791.The FPO displays around 40 parcels for customs clearance per day.So they will take their own time to display your parcel to customs dept.Once displayed customs peoples will open the parcel & decide customs duty for your parcel. I don’t know how they calculate this.In my case they took 2200/- Rs for 100$ cost item.Then parcel is repacked & handed over to FPO.Then FPO send the parcel to domestic location (Pune in my case). The postman will inform you about the parcel & custom duties that you have to pay.You may need to go to your local post office & pay the duties over there & collect the parcel.I received the parcel on 2nd of Feb-12.:-)
I hope this information will help you all.
My special thanks to Tushar Dang for his valuable help.

One mobile phone was sent from UK on 10/02/2012 and it was expected to reach India in a week. But royal mail updated the information on 14/02/2012 saying this is reached to spain for delivery. My seller assured me that the delivery address is India only.
Can anybody tell me what’s going on? Is there any mistake in updation by royal mail or it’s their common procedure?
Well, I can only tell you my view. Since it went to Spain, which is enroute’ from UK to India, you need not worry about your product. May be Royal Mail collects all the mainland European shipments in Spain and from there it disburses them to appropriate places.
Any way, 1 week is too quick for any Government owned International postal services. Once it comes to India, it might take another week for the customs to clear it.

You needn’t do any thing. Just have patience. It will be shipped to Hyderabad after going through regular customs check. Once that’s done, you’ll get a call from your nearest Hyderabad post office to pay the required customs amount and pickup the product (only if it big enough, or else, they will bring it to your door step and collect the money).

Does this mean that it has cleared foreign customs in kolkata and its now just a matter of time before i get it. Or is this just a whitewash like you said earlier so that customs can buy more time.
Average time of delivery between Kolkata and Guwahati is around 2 days and till today there is no news. I also checked up local post office here and they have information on it other than what IPS website mentioned which is the same information as what i have.
Based on your experience,what would be normal delivery time in this kind of situation.
Is it possible that my parcel might be stuck in customs at the moment
Please let me know
Thanks so much

For folks in bangalore that are waiting really long for an international parcel and have no idea whom to contact for the status, here is some info that can help follow up!
I had a friend ship me an Iphone through USPS Priority Mail on the 16th of Feb 2011 from New York, unfortunately, the package was never scanned which meant I was unable to track it! My tracking number would only show ‘Electronic Shipping Info received’ all the time.
After waiting impatiently for 14 days without a clue about where the phone was and scouting through multiple forums for info, I called the Foreign Postal Office located in Museum Rd (080 25589993) today, the lady who answered the phone was extremely courteous, she asked me for the Tracking number and in less than 5 mins, she was able to trace it to Customs. She gave me a code and let me know that the package was detained by Customs and that I will have to speak with them for further information.
I am currently off to Customs office which is located in the same building as the FPO, 3rd Floor on Museum Rd to figure out what i can do to get the parcel, i am fine with paying duty as long as it’s reasonable but my understanding is that the Customs would dispatch the parcel after detaining it for 7 days anyway and if they decide to impose duty on it, then you will have to pay it to get the parcel at the time of delivery to a India Post postman.
Hope this helps.
Exactly. In my case, the postman came to my house saying that the parcel has arrived and asked me to collect it from the post office by paying the customs duty.

Dear Payal,.
Out of custom before 48 Hrs Actually Means that your parcel have been detained and no details were processed.
Due to various RTi filed by customers, Custom/Postal officials are using these tactics to save face and buy more time.
The whole lot that came along with your parcel have been detained and due to back log it is waiting to get cleared.
Hope that clarifies.
I hope you get your parcel soon.

My express mail tracking number is : EG 412862162 US.

In future, use Priority Mail® International. You will get 5% Online Discounts and more over your parcel will reach faster.
This review have been based on my purchases (200+) from USA.
Express mail either gets delivered in 7-10 days or takes 30-50 days
where as Priority mail is received in 15-20 days.
Its cheaper and as per my knowledge its faster.

Hello Shivakumar.. have you got your parcel from USPS??? when did u get it..??
one of my parcel which is very expensive was quoted very less by mistake and it got stuck in customs. There are times you get to meet good officer and he has mercy, he will allow u to take the parcel without much problem. but there are neither clean nor a kind hearted officers who want to show their power, they make your life hell. I am deeply in trouble and want to know anybody had the same problem and how did they solve it. If I return the parcel What may be the penalty they impose on it. I heard they can ask the difference amount of mentioned price and the real price of the product. is that true.
Yes, that should be it. But only after you can convince them that it is really a ‘Mistake’ and not Intentional. Otherwise, there could be an extra penalty in addition to the difference of price Quoted and real price.
How do I convince. it is with a commissioner. so things looking so tough. I’m so worried and feeling helpless. What kind of law it is. This nonsense laws troubles low and middle class people and big people always get away with it.
i also have the same problem…there is no change in the status from 14 days

Hi Richard, I have the same thing. I had to receive a phone through USPS. the tracking says its reached India a week ago on 14th Dec but i am guessing its at the customs. Can you please tell me the entire procedure you went through to get your phone.
I am really hoping to hear from you soon as i wish to get my phone as soon as possible.
Thanks
Any updates on ur case madam???
Dr.Bala
contact the custom office in your gpo area and ask them the status. you may probably have to go to the office to clear the parcel.. later on clearing the parcel customs will send the item back to the foreign post office for delivery.

Dear Amit:
There is no change in the status yet it still says International Dispatch, don’t you think that it is taking too much time it’s almost 13 days since parcel left from US. Is there a way ?, I can find out where is the parcel ?
Yes, it shouldn’t take that long to be here in India. If you see my post, our parcel took just 2 days from USA to India -> and another one week here in India to get Customs clearance.
What does your parcel have? May be it has some restrictive items.
I am nervous now the item it carries is not restrictive at all no one would ship a restrictive item, no other way just to wait and hope to get it one day.
Amit and Pramod,
I am in exactly a similar situation, with the status being ‘ International Dispatch, December 07, 2010, 6:04 pm, ISC MIAMI FL (USPS) ‘ .
Did any of you guys took further steps to contact the customs in India? And have your packages been received ??
u try in delhi customs.
Hi,
I too have the same problem. I had sent a parcel from US to India on Dec 5th and the Tracking Status at USPS says it is in International Dispatch from December 5th, 2010.
When contacted 1-(800)-ASK_USPS, they say that it would take 6-10 business days to reach India and that the 10th business day gets over only on Dec 17th. They say that the parcel would reach on Dec 20. I am very worried.
Can someone please help.
Pramod – Did you get your parcel?
Thanks,
Sneha
Sneha,
I am having exactly similar problem. Since our packages have already left the US, they must surely be at some customs facility in India. We should start calling nearest customs offices and start bugging them with reasonable questions !
Please can i have an update on my parcel form Hong Kong #RB081441703HK

I am sending parcels from India to Europe registered India post. Tracking never works i have even had 3 different tracking numbers all ending in IN however the beginning can vary from RR, EU, CP i have found the CP is a number international post in Delhi have for tracking the RR numbers, god knows what the EU are. The only ones i have tracked in the India post web site have been the RR and this is about 2 out of 10 parcels! I can not get any information, i have phoned a lot of numbers and got no where either because no one speaks English or they give me another number to ring. Has any foreigner ever sent mail in India and knows someone who i can ring who will help me out to locate my parcels. Thanks. Lee.
I’m not sure whether you’ll find this useful or not but India Post seems to have a twitter account @postofficeindia. Try tweeting there.
here comes your rescue.

Dear Friends,
Here in INDIA, the matrix is a bit confusing. I have brief knowledge and willing to help you FOC (Free Of Cost)
When a international parcel arrives in INDIA it is bound to custom clearance. This is done to protect our country from unwanted dump of garbage , protection of nations security and to control inflow of goods ( saving our industries from threat of foreign market) INDIA’s Foreign trade policy states rules and policies of custom duty to be charged on various products. Any incoming parcel is bound to customs checks.
We have many major flaws in the system here.
1 India Post converts international parcels tracking numbers to local numbers for tracking, Sadly There is not matrix available for common man to access this converted number online for getting an update status on the shipment.
2 The Postal Department hand overs the inbound parcels to customs for check. There is no online communication by virtue of which these two department can communicate.
3 There is a very major shortfall of staff in custom department(this is what i learn’d by my communication with Assistant Commissioner of Delhi, CUSTOMS)
4 The delay can be scaled from 3 days to 9 months. At times even after our parcel clears customs they lye around in the warehouse as there is no online tracking of parcels and the international web sites dosent get updated due to change of tracking id from international to local.
5. you need to get double lucky to receive your parcel.
A. your parcel should clear custom(there should not be any thing illigal/ detained able in your parcel)
B in case a duty is applied on your article the update on the status will be reflected on the tracking website as “Hold by customs”
C As per the system you get a letter from custom officer incharge to visit the custom office if a duty applies on ur parcel.
However when the value is low then the duty is applied based on the retail value of the item in INDIA. ( In my case i bought a phone for INR 6000 and Indian MRP of the product was INR 32000 i paid duty on the later amount which was more then triple the value i paid for the phone )
6 Because of the shortage of staff the backlog piles up every now and then, in festival season, when the load of gift is high(Diwali, Christmas etc) the clearance time goes in months. Custom manipulate this time lag by sending you letters in back date and transfers the blame on you for not showing on time. In most of the cases the letter never even shows.
Under these circumstances, either your parcel is returned and the sender pays for return shipping or your item get auctioned by custom for your ignorance.
My suggestion is to go to regional post office of your area. ask them about the custom clearance authority of your area. Get the local number of your international parcel. and speck to commissioner incharge.
ideal delivery time is 6 days. if ur packet dosent show up in 6 days track it up before its to late.
if you have more question or if you need more info please do not hesitate and shoot me a mail # mail[at]tushargroup.in i can also be reached at +91 999 988 9782
With Warm Regards,

Belive in WORK, not in LUCK!”
My USPS priority international parcel is struck at Cleared customs in India since 1 week. I have no idea where my shipment is. This is horrible state and I’m starting to loose hope on the shipment.
Hi, I have exact same problem. My tracking also says that it cleared the customs but no information hence forth for 3 days.
I can confirm though that the product will be sent through EMS speed post of India Post by local Post man.
But a lesson learnt here is that, when ever possible, use express mail service rather than priority mail
