kittoo Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Really sorry if there was a thread already. I read the sticky threads and looked 4 pages back but couldnt find what I was looking for. Two of my friends are returning from US after a month there. I wanted to get a mobo, processor and 4 sticks of RAM from there. The total cost will be nearly 700$. I can of course split and make bills made in both of their names, so that each bill will be of nearly 350$. What about customs that will be charged once they land here in Mumbai? Is there any way I can avoid getting charged for customs or at least reduce it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulovski Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 The rule is free upto 25k per person. So if there are two people with $350 each and they are not bringing anything else much you should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kittoo Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Thanks folks. It seems I should be good if the total doesn't exceeds 50,000 for both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarbonCore Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 They are not bothered with electronics as long as you're not carrying bigass plasma TV or huge speakers. Just don't carry them in their boxes, it'll save suitcase space and will blend with other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
