Hi Aditya,

welcome to the forum. Well a few things are a must take for Indians, Pressure Cooker. Packed spices (a couple of month's supply, make sure they are in their original packing, declare them and u can take them in, it is easier initially if u have them with you, once u settle in, you can buy frm there), rolling pin for chapaties, pans (kadai, the ones available there are usually non stick and the oens here make cooking easier). a couple of Multi plug extension cords (better to change just one plug thn to change it for everything). a month supply of basic medication, tool kit (comes handy).

as for shipping, contact any clearing agent, google them (the rate is approximately 400 per KG for shipping, for air freight it is approximately 1000-1500 per kg).

Rest whatever you want to carry with you.

Search the forum, this has been discussed at length in the past. I am sure I must have missed a lot.

Cheers
Anj

Thanks erviren.

Well they do verify at times i guess. & i was the lucky one they had mailed my manager and asked whole set of Questions like my tenure, type of work, designation salary etc.
verifying it against the document i had provided. but since i had one company & manager was cool it went very smooth !

So all you have to do is wait n watch, and its not necessary you mite get a verification call.

hope this helps. lemme know if u need anything else.

Good luck !
