Greetings all,
A friend of mine has recently moved back to India after a longish stay abroad. He arranged for his household effects to be sent by ship. As such, the stuff is eligible for duty exemption.
The question is: in practice, how painful or easy is it to go over to customs and get your stuff cleared yourself?
Is it advisable/ cost-effective to engage an agent who gets this done for you?
If so, any agents people can vouch for?
Any first hand experience would be useful.
