Hi,
I am a NRI and coming to India after final exit from Saudi Arabia. After 2 weeks, I will move to Australia for settlement. How much jewellery can I bring.

In reply to Vin. Hi Vin! You may need to prove that the gold jewelry (exceeding the duty-free 40 grams for women) is old and for personal use.

In reply to Indian Eagle. Hello sir, when you say more than 40 grams duty free along with the receipts, do we need to pay duty for the grams that are more than 40 grams or if we can prove that gold is old and personal use then we don't need to pay?

Can my wife’s family bring this to us? Any declaration they have to make when departing Indian airport? The gold will not be brought back to India.
