More about shipping to India

Indian tech enthusiasts are particularly interested because this new Intel architecture offers significant improvements in NPU performance for AI tasks and vastly superior battery life compared to previous generations. However, because the US receives these configurations first, waiting for an official India launch often means falling months behind the global curve.

Securing Your Unit from US Retailers

Buying directly from the US market is currently the fastest way to own this hardware. Many Indian shoppers find that US stores offer better customization options for the Framework DIY Edition. When you shop US store options, you gain access to the full inventory of expansion cards and localized keyboard layouts that might not be available elsewhere.

If you encounter issues with US credit cards being declined at checkout, you can utilize a BuyForMe service. This assisted purchase option allows a local agent to handle the transaction on your behalf, ensuring your order is secured without payment friction.

Optimizing Your Delivery with a Freight Forwarder

Since Framework does not ship directly to India, using a reliable freight forwarder is essential. By sending your purchase to a tax-free US address, you avoid US domestic sales tax, which can save you up to 10% before the item even leaves the country. This is where comGateway becomes a vital part of your tech stack.

Once your laptop arrives at the warehouse, you can choose your preferred carrier. Whether you prefer DHL international shipping for its speed or FedEx international shipping for its reliable tracking, having a partner to manage the international shipping process ensures your modular laptop arrives safely in Bangalore, Delhi, or Mumbai.

Managing Import Tax and Customs in India

When the package enters India, it will be subject to import tax and Basic Customs Duty (BCD). In 2026, electronics typically attract an Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) of 18%. Your freight forwarder will often provide the necessary documentation to help the courier clear customs smoothly. Always ensure your KYC documents are updated with the carrier to prevent delays at the border.

Lithium Battery Shipping Compliance

The Framework Laptop 13 contains a high-capacity lithium-ion battery. Under current international shipping service regulations, laptops with internal batteries are classified under UN3481. This means the package must have specific handling labels. It is important to check the prohibited items and restricted goods section to ensure you aren't adding loose spare batteries to your shipment, as these have much stricter flight safety rules than batteries contained within equipment.
