Courier Service from Mumbai to Brazil

Courier Service from Mumbai to Brazil, Picked Up at Your Door

India and Brazil trade in pharmaceuticals, textiles, auto parts and chemicals, and many Indian professionals and students live in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Families send gifts and documents, exporters send samples and small commercial consignments, and students send certificates. Our courier service from Mumbai to Brazil collects from your address, prepares the export paperwork, and coordinates Brazilian customs clearance until the parcel reaches the recipient.

Brazil is one of the stricter destinations for imports. Customs needs the recipient’s tax ID (CPF for individuals, CNPJ for companies), taxes can be high, and some items are restricted, so the contents need to be checked before pickup. We do that before you pay.

Mumbai to Brazil Courier Delivery Time

Most parcels clear and deliver within about two weeks when the paperwork is complete. Our guide on international shipping mistakes lists the errors that cause the most delays.

Brazil Customs, Taxes and Documents

At the time of writing, Brazil applies a reduced federal import tax to low-value remittances of up to about US$50, a much higher rate above that, and a state tax (ICMS) on top. The rules for parcels have changed several times in recent years, and treatment of personal gifts is not always clear, so the recipient should expect a possible tax bill. The recipient’s CPF or CNPJ is needed for clearance. Official information is published by the Receita Federal do Brasil. Rules change, so we confirm the current position when you book.

Shipment type	Typically required
Personal parcels and gifts	Sender’s photo ID; itemised contents with values; the recipient’s full name, Brazilian address, mobile number and CPF
Documents	Sender’s ID; recipient’s name, full address, phone number and CPF or CNPJ
Commercial goods	Commercial invoice with HS codes and country of origin, packing list, IEC, GSTIN and export clearance details; the Brazilian importer’s CNPJ and any licences
Medicines	Doctor’s prescription, original packs and generic names; limited quantity. Commercial supply needs ANVISA approval

Courier Charges from India to Brazil

There is no single per-kg rate for India to Brazil. The price depends on chargeable weight (the higher of actual and volumetric weight, length × width × height in cm ÷ 5,000), the service level, the contents and any taxes payable in Brazil. Send us the weight, size and destination city and we quote before pickup.
