Shipping old company laptop after resignation- Canada to India

[vidurarora]

It is extremely high considering you are sending your own laptop.
Also, in this case can we put in low declared value such as 30-35k of the laptop. It is i7 though

Also, it is so frustrating to pay custom duty on your own personal laptop in any case

Dont put it too low . else they can object to that and your item will get stuck..

yes it reached fine with DHL , i had to pay 75% of the declared value approx 39K.

Hi!! Can you please tell How did you make that payment? You paid it to DHL or directly to customs?

Most of the organisations except banking and finance allows buyout of IT assets. They normally charge the depreciated value and let the person go. Since most of you are working from Canada it’s safe to assume that you are not employed at finance sector, otherwise you won’t be about able to login outside india.
Buyout is the one way you can opt for, it should work. If it doesn’t, then try the other way.

Hi Everyone,

I need help in a situation - I was working for an Indian company and was on notice period for 3 months - now I need to ship company laptop back by next week from Toronto to Gurgaon (Delhi)- as of now I could not find anyone known who is traveling to India who could take it.

What is the best way to ship my company laptop without any customs hurdles - is UBS, DHL or FedEx safe - I do not want my company laptop to be stuck in customs.

Regards,
Karan

Can't you bring the laptop to India with you in person? As one poster said, buyout is one way you can opt for, it should work.

Hi Akash,

Which all documents you had to submit to ship the company laptop? Please revert.

Nope - my PR is on-going & hence cannot leave the country.

What do you mean by on-going? Even PR can leave the country.
