What you’ll need at pickup.
Customs paperwork is the most common reason an international parcel stalls. Singapore is fast when the paperwork is right. We’ll walk you through it before pickup.
KYC of the sender
One photo ID for the person whose name is on the AWB — Aadhaar, passport or driving licence. We photograph it at pickup; not stored beyond DTDC’s record.
Commercial invoice
For commercial goods — gem-trade non-precious samples, block-print B2B, jewellery — a printed invoice listing items, quantity and value. For gifts, a written declaration suffices but value still must be stated. The recipient’s FIN or NRIC speeds clearance.
Prescription (medicines)
HSA reviews medicines crossing the Singapore border. Sealed strips, doctor’s prescription with registration number, name matching the recipient’s FIN. No injectables, no controlled substances.
What Singapore doesn’t let in.
Singapore Customs is efficient but the rules are unusually strict for some categories. These are real Singaporean rules — not our caution. Items shipped against them are seized, and serious cases (especially drugs) carry severe criminal penalty for the consignee.

Marwari merchants, Little India, NUS / NTU students.
Gem-trade non-precious samples to Singapore Marwari
Singapore’s Marwari merchant community on Serangoon Road and around Little India sources non-precious samples — CZ, synthetic stones, silver-plated mounts — from Jaipur’s gem trade. Loose precious stones use a separate licensed-export channel.
Block-print B2B to Mustafa Centre / Tekka
Sanganeri / Bagru block-print fabric, dupattas, table-runners to Mustafa Centre and Tekka wholesale buyers. Commercial invoice with HS codes, GST registration of the recipient if commercial.
Jewellery (non-precious)
Costume jewellery, silver-plated, kundan-style imitation. Declare honestly with HS code.
Wedding outfits to Indian-Singaporean Marwari families
Sarees, lehengas, sherwanis ahead of weddings. Singapore Marwari families source bridal wear directly from Jaipur.
Diwali parcels (sealed dry)
Singapore Indians celebrate Diwali heavily. Sealed dry mithai, diyas, decorations. Recommend express to land before the festival.
Student care kits, NUS / NTU
NUS, NTU, SMU, SUTD — strong Indian-student community. Books, sealed dry snacks, kitchen tools, festival clothing.

AWB on WhatsApp. Track on dtdc.in. POD when it lands.

Asked most often.
Singapore really bans chewing gum?
Yes, since 1992. The ban is part of Singapore’s strict-cleanliness policy and is enforced. Medical and dental gum needs a prescription. Regular Wrigley’s or similar imported as a gift will be refused at customs. Every couple of months someone tries — they don’t get through.
I send small B2B shipments to Mustafa and Little India regularly — what’s the routine?
Standard documents: commercial invoice with line items, KYC, GST registration of the recipient if commercial. Singapore’s GST applies on imports, so the consignee should be set up to handle it for commercial parcels. For Mustafa Centre and Tekka buyers, we typically book express — 4–6 days door-to-door — and the same paperwork format works for repeat shipments. Recurring senders get a streamlined intake.
How is transit only 4–6 days?
Two reasons. One — DTDC moves the parcel via Delhi (Jaipur’s closest air gateway, ~280 km) or Mumbai onto direct cargo capacity to SIN Changi, and flights are very frequent. Two — Singapore Customs is among the world’s fastest; clean paperwork clears in 12–48 hours. Singapore last-mile is reliable everywhere on the island.
