Shop Indian stores from Singapore, delivered to your door
Singapore is not a place where Indian things are hard to find — Little India sells most of them, and sells them well. What it cannot give you is the Indian price, the full range a brand carries at home, or the seller who only takes orders within India. That is the gap a free Indian address fills here.
Yes — you can shop Indian websites from Singapore 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 Singapore — typically 4 to 6 business days from dispatch. You pay for the international shipment only. From India to Singapore, a 1 kg parcel starts at ₹1,300 (about SGD 17.5), and the rate per kilo falls as the box fills: about ₹840 (about SGD 11.3) per kg for a 5 kg box and ₹660 (about SGD 8.9) per kg for 20 kg, on Economy, with GST and payment charges included. We charge in rupees; the SGD figures are approximate, at this week's exchange rate. Forwarding one box to Singapore runs about ₹3,500–4,500 for 1 kg and ₹9,000–11,000 for 5 kg by direct courier, or ₹1,000–1,500 and ₹3,500–5,000 where we run an Economy lane. Ranges worked out 2026-11-02, not quotes, and duty at your end is separate.

| 10 kg | ₹20,500–24,500 about SGD 276–330 |
₹6,500–8,000 about SGD 87–108 |
| 20 kg | ₹33,500–39,500 about SGD 451–531 |
₹12,000–14,500 about SGD 161–195 |
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 2026-11-02.
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 Singapore 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 Singapore?
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 Singapore 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 Singapore — what people actually buy
Little India already stocks a great deal, so almost nobody forwards from India because a thing is unavailable in Singapore. They forward because the specific brand, the specific variant or the specific edition is not there, and because the Indian price on clothing and books is a different order of magnitude. Singapore runs 230V on UK-style sockets, so Indian electricals work with an adapter. Premium is the only tier on this lane, so consolidating into one box is the whole saving.
- Specific brands and variants that local shops do not stock
- Kerala groceries, spices and pickles by the brand you actually want
- Malayalam and Tamil books
- Kasavu, sarees and wedding shopping at Indian prices
- Ayurvedic and herbal products direct from the maker
Premium is the only tier on this route — the Economy consolidated service does not run to Singapore, so the rate table shows Premium only. Chewing gum, e-cigarettes, vaping products and shisha are banned outright.
We deliver door to door across Singapore, including and Singapore.
Customs and restrictions
GST applies to imported goods, including low-value parcels; declare contents accurately.
Not accepted

Selling from India rather than buying? Shipping orders to Singapore for Indian sellers covers this lane from the other side — transit, what Singapore will not admit, and how duty falls.

Shipping from India to Singapore — questions
Is there a package forwarding company that gives me an Indian address and ships to Singapore?
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 Singapore, typically 4 to 6 business days after dispatch.
Can I get Indian products delivered to Singapore 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 Singapore in one box.
How do I shop from India and ship to Singapore?
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 Singapore.
How much does it cost to send a parcel from India to Singapore per kg?
From India to Singapore, a 1 kg parcel starts at ₹1,300 (about SGD 17.5), and the rate per kilo falls as the box fills: about ₹840 (about SGD 11.3) per kg for a 5 kg box and ₹660 (about SGD 8.9) per kg for 20 kg, on Economy, with GST and payment charges included. We charge in rupees; the SGD figures are approximate, at this week's exchange rate. Forwarding one box to Singapore runs about ₹3,500–4,500 for 1 kg and ₹9,000–11,000 for 5 kg by direct courier, or ₹1,000–1,500 and ₹3,500–5,000 where we run an Economy lane. Ranges worked out 2026-11-02, 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 Singapore 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 Singapore with tracking, typically 4 to 6 business days after dispatch.
What is the cheapest way to ship from India to Singapore?
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 Singapore, it is cheaper again than direct courier in exchange for a few more days in transit.
How long does delivery to Singapore 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 Singapore?
GST applies to imported goods, including low-value parcels; declare contents accurately. Duty is charged by the customs authority in Singapore, not by India Rabbit.
What can I not forward to Singapore?
Prohibited for Singapore: Chewing gum (import for sale is banned); E-cigarettes, vaping products, and imitation tobacco; Chewing tobacco and shisha/hookah products; Controlled drugs; Obscene material, pirated goods, and firecrackers; Cash, currency, cheques, bullion, and loose precious stones. 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.
