What Does “Working Days” Mean in International Courier?

When customers ship parcels internationally through Singh International Xpress (SinghXpress), one common question is:

“How many working days will delivery take?”

Working days mean business days when courier companies, airlines, and customs offices operate. It does NOT include:

• Sundays

• Government holidays

• National holidays (India or destination country)

Example for Punjab Customers

If you ship a parcel from Amritsar, Ludhiana, Jalandhar, Tarn Taran or Nangal on Friday and delivery time is 4 working days:

• Saturday → Working

• Sunday → Not counted

• Monday → Working

• Tuesday → Working

• Wednesday → Working

Delivery may happen on Wednesday or Thursday depending on customs clearance.

Why Working Days Are Important in International Shipping

International courier services depend on:

• Airline schedules

• Customs clearance

• Destination country rules

• Weather conditions

That is why delivery is calculated in working days, not calendar days.

Important Note from SinghXpress

Delivery timelines are estimated, not guaranteed.
Customs delays or incorrect documents may increase shipping time.
