Starting rates. Real pricing depends on weight.
Final price depends on actual or volumetric weight (whichever is greater) plus the international fuel surcharge in force on your booking date. GST is extra. Ajmer rates match Jaipur’s — the road feeder leg is absorbed.

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, 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.
Don’t even try
- Chewing gum — yes, really. Singapore’s long-standing cleanliness policy bans gum imports for non-medical purposes.
- E-cigarettes & vapes — fully banned, including pods, refills and accessories.
- Recreational drugs of any kind — death penalty for trafficking-quantity. Don’t risk anything.
- Pornography & religious-disrespectful materials — refused at customs.
- Firearms, ammunition, weapons — strictly prohibited.
- Untreated bamboo agarbatti / dried-flower garlands — Sufi-pilgrimage senders sometimes try these; quarantine flags them.
- Copyright-infringing media, counterfeit branded goods — IP enforcement is taken seriously.
- Endangered-species products — CITES enforcement is strict.
- Liquids and aerosols of any kind — universal courier rule.
- Lithium batteries above 100 Wh — restricted on air leg.
Allowed with care

- Books and printed material — any language. Declare title and value.
- Sealed dry vegetarian sweets — factory-sealed, declare ingredients.
- Tablets with prescription — sealed strip, doctor’s prescription, recipient FIN. No injectables.

Asked most often.
Why is Ajmer transit one day longer than Jaipur for the same destination?
Ajmer has no commercial airport — every international parcel travels ~135 km by road feeder to the Jaipur DTDC International gateway, then onward by air. The road leg adds roughly half a day, the booking-cycle adds another. We absorb the road feeder cost: rates match Jaipur’s exactly, only transit changes.
Can I send Sufi-pilgrimage souvenirs from Ajmer Sharif to Singapore?
Yes, with care. Printed materials, prayer beads (non-organic — glass, metal, synthetic), pilgrimage-souvenir books all clear Singapore customs. Avoid: dried flowers, untreated bamboo agarbatti, anything organic from the Dargah courtyard — quarantine flags it. Singapore’s Indian-Muslim and Tamil-Muslim community has Ajmer-Sharif devotees, so customs officers do see this kind of parcel; honest declaration moves it through.
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.
