Prohibited Items

The Unique Express company holds its clientele and their packages in high esteem, no matter the nature of the parcel being domestic or professional, one or bulk. When shipments are made, a very important factor to consider is the knowledge of the items that are not allowed for international shipping. The prohibitions are based on international aviation regulations, customs requirements, and safety regulations made to safeguard people, property, and the environment.

The international shipping restrictions are mainly applicable to prohibited shipping items, such as dangerous goods, such as explosives, hazardous items, firearms, explosives, and military equipment. The health or safety risk items, like poison, toxins, and unscientific biological materials, are also restricted. Additionally, drugs, medicines without prescriptions, and items violating IP rights are all non-transportable.

Some items of high value or sensitivity, such as raw diamonds, gems, precious stones, jewellery, cash, and financial instruments, may not be shipped due to security and insurance restrictions. The spoilable goods or items needing special handling may be banned depending on the regulations of the destination country. Other restricted goods include pornographic material and all items that infringe the Indian Postal Act of 1898, and all restricted items as per the guidelines of IATA.

These guidelines on banned goods are to be followed strictly to provide you with a reliable, smooth, and hassle-free shipping experience. Customers need to go through the import regulations of their country and contact Unique Express before packing their shipments. Our staff will always be there to provide you with safe and legal delivery options.
