15 July 2019 We are freight forwarder, who send some parcels to outside India to parties & for sending such parcels we contracted courier.
But courier company charged IGST in their bills for delivered goods outside India whereas we both in same state.

Requesting you please look into matter and revert.

17 July 2019 As per Section 12(8) of the IGST Act, place of supply in case of international courier is place of destination of cargo. Thus, the supplier is located in your state and place of supply is outside India [not in the same state], and hence it is an inter-state supply. IGST is required to be charged.
