FAQs - Shipping & Moving from Ireland to India
1. How long does shipping household goods from Ireland to India take?
Sea freight usually takes around 5–7 weeks door-to-door, depending on the route and customs process. Air freight is faster and can take roughly 5–10 days from collection to delivery, but it costs more.
2. What is the cheapest way to move furniture from Ireland to India?
The cheapest method is normally sea freight in a shared (LCL) or full container (FCL). If you have a full house, a 20ft or 40ft container gives you the best value. Air freight is quicker but more expensive, so it suits smaller and urgent shipments.
3. How much does it cost to ship a 20ft container from Ireland to India?
A 20ft container from Ireland to India can roughly cost between €3,500 and €5,500, depending on volume, season, and final delivery location in India. For an accurate price, it is best to request a personalised quote with your actual inventory and dates.
4. Can I ship only personal effects like clothes and books to India from Ireland?
Yes, you can. We regularly handle shipping personal effects to India from Ireland for students, professionals, and families. We use LCL sea freight or air freight, based on your budget and urgency.
5. What documents do I need for customs when moving to India?
You usually need a passport, visa or OCI/PIO card, packing list, and sometimes proof of residence change or employment. Our team guides you step by step and helps you prepare the papers correctly, so customs clearance goes smoother.
6. Do you offer door-to-door relocation from Ireland to all parts of India?
We provide door-to-door moving solutions to India from Ireland for all major cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Kolkata and more. For remote areas, we still try our best but may need to discuss local access and cost.

We strongly recommend marine cargo insurance for international moves. You can choose basic cover or full value protection. Our team explains what is covered and helps you complete the insurance form before packing begins.

We use export-grade cartons, bubble wrap, corner guards, moving blankets, and sometimes custom wooden crates. We also disassemble large furniture where possible. This kind of packing reduces the chance of damage during long sea or air journeys.
