    Hi friends. I need my pils to send us some forms and papers from India to USA? I checked with FEDEX and BLUEDART, they are really costly if someone has to send stuff from india.Please tell me what are the cheapest way to receive those forms with a week or so? Is that registered post, or speed post or ordinary mail?

    if none of this works and they have to send documents to USA through FEDEX which may cost around Rs 3000/- or more, is there a way that we pay for the shipment and they can just pack and send from INDIA?

    thanks

    hi richa,
    3000 is way too costly. Last year I sent a parcel to the US and it cost me only 1200 rs. it was thru professional couriers....So, i guess u can check that option also..Good Luck

    I have shipped some docs from B'lroe using DHL it was awesome. I was able to call a number and schedule a pickup and they came and picked up my stuff, costed about 1000 .

    why dont you contact DHL or professional couriers.

    Documents from India can be sent through INDIA SPEED POST which gives a tracking number which can be tracked on USPS website...it arrives in 7 to 10 days...I got my medical school certificate safely this way..
    To send documents to India I have used fedex and USPS...both have reached safely and are efficient but USPS doesnt give a tracking number...

    Documents can be sent through normal post with speed delivery.It is way cheaper than Fedex.
