Sending gold jewellery by post to Singapore requires compliance with carrier dangerous goods policies and destination customs regulations. Verify current regulations with the destination customs authority. Rules change frequently and enforcement varies by port of entry and individual officer.

Personal-wear gold jewellery (typically 20g for men / 40g for women in India; varies elsewhere) clears duty-free. Above the threshold: declare at Singapore Customs Red Channel; duty + VAT computed on excess. Bring purchase receipts.
