Order from Nykaa and get it delivered in the UK
If Nykaa will not deliver to your UK address, use an Indian address instead. India Rabbit gives you a free Indian address at its warehouse in Kerala. You order on Nykaa like a customer in India, we receive and photograph each parcel, hold it free for 30 days and ship everything to you in one box.
| Can I order Nykaa to the UK? | Yes, through a free Indian address. Order on Nykaa's Indian site to your India Rabbit address at our warehouse in Kerala, as a customer in India, and we forward it. If Nykaa delivers to your address itself, compare its price first. |
|---|---|
| How? | Sign up free, use your Indian address and suite code at checkout, and ask us to ship when your parcels have arrived. Each parcel is photographed on arrival and held free for 30 days. |
| What does it cost? | From India to the UK, a 1 kg parcel starts at ₹2,000 (about GBP 15.7), and the rate per kilo falls as the box fills: about ₹1,260 (about GBP 9.9) per kg for a 5 kg box and ₹820 (about GBP 6.4) per kg for 20 kg, on Economy, with GST and payment charges included. We charge in rupees; the GBP figures are approximate, at this week's exchange rate. |
| How long? | Typically 4 to 10 business days after the box leaves Kerala, plus customs clearance. |
| What cannot be sent? | Perfume and sprays, nail polish, aerosols, anything with a battery, phones and laptops, real gold, silver and diamond jewellery, incense and camphor. See the list |
Does Nykaa ship to the UK?
Check at your own checkout, because it varies by brand. If Nykaa will not deliver to your UK address, order to your India Rabbit address in Kerala. We ship your order on to London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leicester, Glasgow or anywhere in the UK, typically 4 to 10 business days after the box leaves India.
How to order from Nykaa in the UK, step by step
- Sign up free and copy your India Rabbit address with your suite code.
- Add it as a delivery address in your Nykaa account and choose it at checkout. Pay online; cash on delivery cannot be accepted at our warehouse.
- We photograph each parcel when it arrives, so you can check it before anything flies.
- When everything has arrived, ask us to ship: one box to your door in the UK.
What can and cannot go in a Nykaa box
Perfume, nail polish and remover, aerosols and sprays cannot be shipped by air to any country. Creams, serums, face washes, hair oils, shampoos, sheet masks, powders and make-up are fine, liquids included. Keep the restricted items out of your basket rather than having them removed at packing, and the rest of the order forwards without fuss.
What is worth ordering from Nykaa to Britain
Indian brands that UK shops do not stock or sell at an importer's price: Ayurvedic skincare, hair oils, herbal face packs, kajal and Indian make-up shades. International brands are usually easier to buy in the UK itself.
VAT and duty on a parcel from India
For goods up to £135, UK VAT at 20% is normally charged by the seller at checkout; above £135, the courier collects VAT and any duty before delivery. Gifts between individuals are free of VAT up to £39. Since 15 July 2026 the UK–India trade agreement has cut or removed duty on many goods made in India where the origin rules are met. VAT still applies.
If your foreign card is declined at checkout, read how to pay on Indian shopping sites from abroad or message us on WhatsApp before you order.
Costs and transit to United Kingdom
Typical transit is 4 to 10 business days from the day your consolidated box leaves our Kerala warehouse, plus clearance at your end. Parcels are held free for 30 days each while you finish ordering.

Nykaa to United Kingdom — questions
Does Nykaa ship to the UK?
It depends on the brand and the item, so check at checkout. If it will not deliver to your UK address, order to your free India Rabbit address and we forward it to the UK.
Can I ship nail polish from Nykaa to the UK?
No. Nail polish, remover, perfume and aerosols cannot travel by air. Skincare, haircare and make-up can.
Will I pay VAT on a Nykaa order in the UK?
Usually. Above £135 the courier collects VAT and any duty before delivery. The UK–India trade deal has cut duty on many Indian-made goods since 15 July 2026, but VAT still applies.
