International Shipping Charges Guide by Weight
International shipping charges are generally determined by the chargeable weight of the parcel, which is the greater of the Actual Weight or the Volumetric Weight.
DTDC uses a slab-based pricing system where charges are calculated in increments (e.g., 0.5 kg, 1 kg, etc.). Since rates are dynamic and dependent on fluctuating fuel surcharges, foreign exchange rates, and the specific destination pin code within Czech republic, we advise using the official DTDC Rate Calculator for the most precise quote.
Volumetric Weight Calculation
Courier companies must account for both the weight of the parcel and the amount of space it occupies on an aircraft or truck. This is where volumetric weight comes into play.
The volumetric weight (VW) is calculated using the following standard formula for air freight and international shipping:
Volumetric Weight (kg) = [Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm)] ÷ 5000
Chargeable Weight
The Chargeable Weight: DTDC will charge you based on the higher of the two: the Actual Weight (measured on a scale) or the Volumetric Weight (calculated using the formula above).
For Example if your parcel weighs 5 kg (Actual Weight) but measures 50 × 40 × 30 cm, the Volumetric Weight would be:
[50 × 40 × 30] ÷ 5000 = 60000 ÷ 5000 = 12 kg
Since 12 kg (VW) is greater than 5 kg (Actual Weight), the chargeable weight for your shipment would be 12 kg.
How DTDC Courier Charges to Czech republic are Calculated
The final DTDC International Courier Charge to Czech republic is a sum of several components:
Base Freight Charge: Determined by the chargeable weight and the destination zone (i.e., Czech republic).
Fuel Surcharge (FSC): A variable charge based on the current market price of aviation fuel.
GST (Goods and Services Tax): The applicable Indian tax on courier services (typically 18%).
Customs Duty/Taxes (DDU/DDP): Any import duties, taxes, or clearance fees levied by Czech republic Customs (unless shipped DDP - Duty Paid).
Remote Area Surcharge (RAS): An additional fee if the delivery address in Czech republic falls into a difficult-to-service or remote location pin code.
Value-Added Services: Charges for insurance, special handling (e.g., fragile goods), or specific documentation services.
Estimated Delivery Time from India to Czech republic
Delivery timelines for international couriers are estimates and are contingent upon the chosen service, the specific destination city in Czech republic, and most importantly, the time taken for customs clearance at the destination port.
| Service Type | Estimated Transit Time (Business Days) | Key Factor |
|---|---|---|
| Express Air Parcel | 3 – 5 days | Priority air transport and handling. |
| Economy Air Parcel | 8 – 14 days | Uses consolidated air freight for cost-saving. |
| Cargo Services | Varies | Depends on flight schedules and specific route. |
Important Note: The estimated transit time typically begins after the parcel has been picked up, processed, and handed over to the airline. Any delays at either Indian or Czech republic Customs are not included in this estimate. DTDC’s Premium Express services may offer a stricter time-definite guarantee.

Packaging Guidelines for Safe Delivery to Czech republic
International shipments are subjected to multiple sorting centers, transfers, and long-distance transport. Proper packaging is your first and best defense against damage. Moreover, efficient packaging helps reduce your costs by minimizing volumetric weight.
DTDC Packing Standards
Use a Strong Outer Box: Use a new, double-walled corrugated box appropriate for the weight and size of the contents.
Internal Cushioning: Use sufficient cushioning materials (bubble wrap, foam peanuts, air pillows) to ensure items do not move within the box.
Secure Sealing: Seal the box securely using strong, pressure-sensitive packing tape (minimum 3 layers). Secure all seams and edges.
Clear Labeling: Affix the DTDC AWB label clearly on the top surface. Remove all old labels if re-using a box.
Tips for Fragile or High-Value Items
Double Boxing: Place the primary box containing the fragile item inside a larger, secondary box with at least 6cm of cushioning material between the two boxes on all sides.
Fragile Label: While a "Fragile" label is helpful, do not rely on it. Pack the item as if the label is invisible.
Insure Your Shipment: Always opt for insurance for high-value goods (see Insurance section).
Lithium Batteries: Must be securely packaged and accompanied by the correct safety data sheets and UN-certified packaging where applicable.

Customs Clearance Information for DTDC Courier to Czech republic
Customs clearance is a mandatory process where the consignment is inspected and approved by the border control authorities of Czech republic.
Import duties, taxes, and service fees (collectively known as Customs Duty) are determined by the Customs department of Czech republic based on the item's value, type of goods (HS Code), and the reason for import (gift vs. commercial).
Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU): The recipient in Czech republic is responsible for paying all duties and taxes before the parcel can be released for final delivery. Most DTDC personal courier shipments are sent DDU by default.
Delivered Duty Paid (DDP): The sender in India pays the estimated duties and taxes upfront. This ensures faster delivery as the recipient does not have to deal with the payment, though it adds to the shipping cost.
The time taken for customs clearance in Czech republic can vary greatly:
Typical Time: 1 to 3 working days for standard, complete paperwork shipments.
Potential Delays: Can extend significantly (up to a week or more) if:
Paperwork is incomplete (missing invoice, KYC).
The declared value is questioned.
The contents are restricted and require specific permits.
Duty/taxes are unpaid (DDU).
Insurance and Value Protection
While DTDC ensures the utmost care in handling, unforeseen circumstances like damage, loss, or theft can occur. For peace of mind, especially for high-value items, opting for shipping insurance is highly recommended.
Coverage: Insurance provides financial protection against the declared value of the goods, based on the terms and conditions of the policy.
Premium: The insurance premium is a small percentage of the total declared commercial value of your shipment.
Note: In the unfortunate event of a claim, DTDC will require the commercial invoice or purchase proof to validate the actual value of the loss.
