Frequently asked

Quick answers

How do I send a gift to my family in Nepal?
Shop from any store in India, China, or Japan using your iWishBag address. We receive at our warehouse and deliver to your family in Nepal. Add a gift message if you want — we'll print and include it. Tracking is shared with you, and you can forward it to your family.
What payment methods do you accept for international customers?
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and PayPal. All major international cards work. Quotes are in NPR but you pay in your local currency — your bank handles conversion.
Can I send gifts from USA to Nepal?
Yes. We don't have a US warehouse, but you can shop from Indian stores (Flipkart, Amazon India, Myntra) or Chinese stores (AliExpress) using your iWishBag address. Many products on these platforms are cheaper than US retail anyway.
How long does delivery to Nepal take?
From India, 5–14 days. From China, 10–21 days. From Japan, 10–18 days. Real-time tracking lets you and your family know exactly when to expect delivery.
Can I include a gift message?
Yes. Add your message at checkout and we'll print a card to include with the package. Works for birthdays, Dashain, Tihar, anniversaries, weddings — anything.
What if my family isn't home for delivery?
Our delivery partners call before delivery. If no one's home, they attempt redelivery or hold at a nearby pickup point. You can also leave instructions like 'call before delivery' or 'leave with neighbor'.
Do I need to handle customs paperwork?
No. We prepare all customs documentation. Duty is included in your quote, so your family won't pay anything at delivery.
Can I send to any city in Nepal?
Yes. Kathmandu, Pokhara, Biratnagar, Lalitpur, Bharatpur, Birgunj, and beyond. Remote areas may add 1–2 days.
What's the best way to send birthday gifts to Nepal?
Flipkart or Amazon India for fastest delivery (5–10 days from India). Choose Express shipping at checkout, add a birthday message, and you'll have it at their door within a week.
How do I track the package?
Tracking updates land in your dashboard and via email at every milestone — received, packed, shipped, out for delivery, delivered. Share the tracking link with your family so they can follow along.
Details

This guide is for the four million Nepalis abroad — and the families back home who count on them. Use our free Indian, Chinese, or Japanese warehouse address as your shopping delivery, and we forward to any address in Nepal in 5–21 days. Pay with your foreign card. We handle customs.

Why this beats shipping direct

Shipping a parcel from the US, UK, UAE, or Australia straight to Nepal is expensive and slow — and most retailers refuse to ship there at all. Routing through India or China changes the math two ways: products are cheaper at source, and intra-Asia freight to Nepal is a fraction of what trans-continental shipping costs.

A typical example: a ₹3,000 (~USD 36) gift bought from Flipkart in India and forwarded to Nepal lands at your family's door in about a week for ~USD 15 in shipping and duty. The same item shipped from a US retailer would run USD 60–100 in shipping alone, before duty.

Best store-to-occasion pairings

  • Dashain / Tihar — Indian fashion (Myntra, Ajio), sweets, electronics from Flipkart. Plan 10–14 days ahead
  • Birthdays — Indian fashion or Amazon India electronics. Express lane lands within a week
  • Wedding gifts — Tata CLiQ for premium watches and authenticated luxury, Myntra for fabric
  • New baby — FirstCry has the deepest baby catalog at India pricing
  • Just because — Nykaa beauty hauls travel well and feel personal

What we ship most

Phones, laptops, fashion, beauty, and traditional/festival wear are the volume on this lane. Electronics need original invoices kept for warranty (we forward them with the parcel). Sweets and consumables ship if vacuum-sealed and within shelf-life.

A few categories need extra care: lithium batteries above thresholds, certain cosmetics (alcohol-based fragrance has volume limits), and large appliances. We flag these upfront and route correctly.

Worth knowing before you send

  • Add the gift message at checkout — we print and include it. Don't write it inside the parcel since we may need to repack for international forwarding
  • Express lanes shave a week off delivery for time-sensitive gifts (festivals, birthdays, weddings). Worth the small premium when timing matters
  • Keep the original purchase invoice for high-value electronics — Nepal customs occasionally asks for verification
  • Share the tracking link with your family. They appreciate knowing when to be home, and it removes the "did it arrive?" check-ins
  • Festival weeks (Dashain, Tihar, Diwali) get crowded. Book at least 10 days ahead during October–November for guaranteed delivery before the festival
  • For cash equivalents, gift cards, or vouchers — most don't ship internationally. Ask before ordering rather than discovering at customs
