1. Rates look far higher than what is currently charged.
2. Have you been to the Indian Post and tried to send a registered parcel in recent times? Tremendous bureaucratic and delay-oriented approaches in play. FN

Quite right.
C$28 for a 2Kg book pack may not be economical but could this service be used for legal docs.
How long would it take to reach?
