Shop Indian stores from Bangladesh, delivered to your door

Bangladesh’s Indian community is small — students and professionals, mostly in Dhaka — but the ties across the border run deep, and many Bangladeshi families buy Indian sarees, books and wedding clothing. Many Indian websites deliver only within India.

Yes — you can shop Indian websites from Bangladesh even when they will not deliver there. India Rabbit is a package forwarding company that gives you a free Indian delivery address in Kerala. Order to it from Amazon.in, Flipkart, Myntra or any Indian shop, and we receive each parcel, hold it free for 30 days, combine everything into one box and forward it to Bangladesh — typically 4 to 6 business days from dispatch. You pay for the international shipment only. From India to Bangladesh, a 1 kg parcel starts at ₹3,800 (about BDT 4,957), and the rate per kilo falls as the box fills: about ₹1,860 (about BDT 2,426) per kg for a 5 kg box and ₹1,820 (about BDT 2,374) per kg for 20 kg, on Premium, with GST and payment charges included. We charge in rupees; the BDT figures are approximate, at this week's exchange rate. Forwarding one box to Bangladesh runs about ₹3,000–4,500 for 1 kg and ₹8,500–10,500 for 5 kg by direct courier. Ranges worked out 2026-10-31, not quotes, and duty at your end is separate.

These are ranges, not quotes. What you actually pay depends on the finished weight and size of your box after we repack it, which is usually less than the sum of the parcels that arrived. Worked out 2026-10-31.

Why one box beats five parcels

International shipping is charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, and every parcel carries that cost separately. Five 1 kg parcels to Bangladesh are priced as five shipments; repacked into one 4 kg box — packaging stripped, which is where the fifth kilo goes — they are priced as one. That is the difference between the 1 kg row above multiplied by five and the 5 kg row on its own.

Premium or Economy to Bangladesh?

Premium is a direct courier with end-to-end tracking and priority customs handling. Economy is consolidated and takes a few days longer for a lower price. Typical transit to Bangladesh is 4 to 6 business days from dispatch; Economy sits at the longer end of that. Both are tracked. More on choosing Premium or Economy and on how long shipping from India takes.

Shop from India to Bangladesh — what people actually buy

Bangladesh runs 220V, and most sockets accept Indian round-pin plugs. Tax is a percentage of declared value, so splitting a box does not reduce it; what consolidation saves is the shipping.

  • Sarees and wedding clothing
  • Bengali books
  • Medicines with a prescription
  • Festival and gift items

Bangladesh stacks customs duty, supplementary duty, VAT and advance taxes, which can exceed 100% of the value on clothing and cosmetics. Pork, poppy seeds and used electronics are prohibited.

We deliver door to door across Bangladesh, including Dhaka, Chattogram, Sylhet and Rajshahi.

Shipping from India to Bangladesh — questions

Is there a package forwarding company that gives me an Indian address and ships to Bangladesh?

Yes. India Rabbit is a package forwarding company that gives you a free Indian address at its warehouse in Kerala, with your own suite code. You shop Indian websites to it, and it combines your parcels into one box and ships them to Bangladesh, typically 4 to 6 business days after dispatch.

Can I get Indian products delivered to Bangladesh when the shop only ships within India?

Yes. Order to your India Rabbit address as an ordinary customer in India. We receive the parcel at our warehouse in Kerala, hold it free for 30 days while your other orders arrive, and forward everything to Bangladesh in one box.

How do I shop from India and ship to Bangladesh?

Sign up free and you get an Indian delivery address in Kerala with your own suite code. Use it as the shipping address at checkout on Amazon.in, Flipkart, Myntra, Nykaa, Ajio and most other Indian stores. When your parcels reach us we let you know, and you choose when to have them forwarded to Bangladesh.

How much does it cost to send a parcel from India to Bangladesh per kg?

From India to Bangladesh, a 1 kg parcel starts at ₹3,800 (about BDT 4,957), and the rate per kilo falls as the box fills: about ₹1,860 (about BDT 2,426) per kg for a 5 kg box and ₹1,820 (about BDT 2,374) per kg for 20 kg, on Premium, with GST and payment charges included. We charge in rupees; the BDT figures are approximate, at this week's exchange rate. Forwarding one box to Bangladesh runs about ₹3,000–4,500 for 1 kg and ₹8,500–10,500 for 5 kg by direct courier. Ranges worked out 2026-10-31, not quotes, and duty at your end is separate. What you pay depends on the finished weight and size after we repack your parcels into one; the table on this page shows indicative totals by parcel weight for Premium and Economy, with our handling, GST and payment charges included. The calculator gives the exact figure for your box.

Can I send a courier from India to Bangladesh with India Rabbit?

Yes. Order from Indian shops to your India Rabbit address, or have family in India send things there by any domestic courier. We receive and photograph every parcel, combine everything into one box and ship it to Bangladesh with tracking, typically 4 to 6 business days after dispatch.

What is the cheapest way to ship from India to Bangladesh?

Order everything to your Indian address first and have it forwarded as one box. International shipping is charged per shipment on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, so five parcels sent separately cost far more than the same goods repacked together. Where we run an Economy lane to Bangladesh, it is cheaper again than direct courier in exchange for a few more days in transit.

How long does delivery to Bangladesh take?

Typically 4 to 6 business days from the day your consolidated shipment leaves our warehouse, plus customs clearance at your end. Time in storage before you request shipping does not count towards that.

How much can I save by combining parcels?

International shipping is priced on weight and size, so five separate parcels cost far more than one. We repack everything into a single box and strip unnecessary packaging to cut volumetric weight. The saving scales with how bulky the original packaging was — up to 80% on bulky retail boxes, considerably less on small dense items.

Will I pay customs duty in Bangladesh?

Dhaka Custom House publishes courier tax incidence by item: mobile 58%, laptop 31%, medicine 31%, garments 127%, cosmetics 127%, perfume 146%, skin care 157%, hair care 183%. No duty-free allowance is published for courier parcels. The recipient pays before delivery. Duty is charged by the customs authority in Bangladesh, not by India Rabbit.

What can I not forward to Bangladesh?

Prohibited for Bangladesh: Pork and pork products; Poppy seeds and cannabis; Used or reconditioned electronics, including old phones and computers; Obscene or subversive publications and material offensive to religious sentiment, including religious inscriptions on goods or packaging; Maps that misrepresent Bangladesh's boundaries; Polythene bags. Check before you order.

How long will you hold my parcels?

30 days free from the day each parcel arrives, which is enough to finish a sale-season order and send it all together. Storage can be extended for a fee if you need longer.

Do I need an Indian card or phone number?

For most stores your own card works fine. Where a store insists on an Indian payment method, message us on WhatsApp before ordering and we will tell you what is possible.
