What are the Courier Charges Per Kg from Malaysia to India?
Courier rates aren’t one-size-fits-all. They depend on:
Parcel weight
Type of items
Courier service (Aramex, Redly Express, UPS, etc.)

How to Save on Courier Charges Per KG
Want to lower your shipping cost? Here are smart hacks for saving on your international delivery:
1. Compare courier rates
Use EasyParcel’s rate comparison tool to check multiple couriers instantly. You’ll see all available options with prices and delivery times.
🧠 Example:
A 1kg parcel to Mumbai via DHL may cost RM80, while Aramex offers RM60 for slightly longer delivery. Depends on what you prioritise — speed or savings!
2. Choose economy shipping
If it’s not urgent, go with economy shipping instead of express. The parcel will take longer but save you 30–50%.
3. Pack light and tight
Couriers charge based on actual weight or volumetric weight, whichever is higher. That’s why size matters!
📏 Volumetric weight formula (cm):
(Length × Width × Height) / 5000
So don’t just weigh your item — measure the box too!
