Re: [Goanet] INformation on Transfer of Shipping of Personal Items from UK to Goa
KARL About shipping personal goods to Goa . Yes you can do that Check with your Local freight Agents or Contact Our Freight Agent - Rapat Freight ( tel 020 8570 ) Mr Kirthbhai ( very helpful person ) at Heathrow . ( they will also at a charge collect the goods from your house in London / UK ).ASk them the Freight Charges Documentation Charges, collection Charges etc etc before you make any decesions . Also shop around for Freight Charges .( charges are per kilo the more kilos you take the cheaper it gets as documentation charges only are about £70 - £90 pounds plus the weight charges ) I did the same took some belongings and Clothes etc to Goa about two years ago ( tell him to put it on a Direct Flight ( monarch etc etc ).If you are Going to Goa on a direct flight then they may be also able to put it on the same flight as yours , Check with them first ??, Secondly dont send to early as you will pay demmurage charges in Goa by the week . Try and ask the freight agent to send it the week you are leaving UK so that you can go there and collect at customs in Vasco on the next day you arrive in Goa .or wait till Goa customs send to your local address ( which should be provided to them on the packages ) in Goa a reminder Notice of the arrival of your goods.You will have to go with your passport & documents early in the morning as there are big ques( sometimes it may take a day or two to clear so be aware of the sussegad formalities ( unless you have contact in the customs and are ready to pay ) good luck . keep in touch Kind regards, Cyril Pereira ___ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org

The container arrived directly in Goa. My cousin too, from Dubai sent a container to Goa. The customs are pretty sticky, irrespective of whether the goods are old nor not...seems some greasing or influence is needed! The person from Navelim will be here in London for the Navelim Feast day celebrations. I shall enquire and post the experience here on Goanet. -- DEV BOREM KORUM. Gabe Menezes.

And here was I thinking that India with all the gobalization brouhaha would have allowed returning Indians to bring whatever personal items they wished to. Like Canada allowing you to bring unrestricted personal items (in non-commercial quantities of course) without any duty, when you first immigrate. Roland.

Few years back, I remember a gulfy whose cargo came few days after he arrive in Goa. He cleared & collected it from MPT port. Don't know how he did it. Last year, we enquired at LGW airport counter, and they say they can send it to Goa via Bombay. Don't know if they can send by direct chartered flights.
