Post to United States

I need to ship approximately 10 sarees from Karachi to the US (namely, Texas). What is the best way to ship (ISP? DHL?) How much will it cost? And how long will it take?

Thank you in advance! <3

Re: Post to United States

i guess there are packages for 5 kg and 10kg parcels from karachi for DHL..you can check at any of their oputlet.
i use pakistan post for my parcels. they deilver in 6 working days

Re: Post to United States

DHL is horrible and overpriced. Use Fedex. They have a 10kg box which might cost you around a 100 bucks or less.

Re: Post to United States

have you found pakistan post to be reliable? is it affordable?

thank you for the heads up re dhl vs fedex!!

i've also heard of OCS on GS. it's supposedly cheap & reliable. have never used it personally, though.

Re: Post to United States

You should go with only International services like (FEDEX, DHL). They will cost most, but you will have guarantee of delivery. !

Re: Post to United States

i have not experienced any problem with pakistan post yet during last 2 years.they have an urgent mail service ums-delivers in 6 working days.. and a registered post one which takes 3 weeks and is cheaper.
OCS is cheaper than dhl though.

Re: Post to United States

fedex usually charges 40-60 bucks for 3-4 outfits. how much is pakistan post?

Packages sent through Pak Post have electronic tracking numbers too. Just got a package in from back home, with a scannable bar code on it!

Re: Post to United States

the price for fedex 10kg which was originally 6,200 pak rupees is now 11,200 and for 25kg its 19,800. Thats way too expensive... :(

Re: Post to United States

the tariff is on their website..16% taxes additional.
Pakistan Post Office – EMTTS

Pakistan Post Office Department

the other pak post website shows the above rates. i wonder if these are up-to-date or not.
