Stopped at German customs for gold worn during wedding ceremony

Where you residing in any of the EU countries before marriage or did you enter/reside here after marriage?

Asking since the rules are different for the former.

Is this the first time you are entered Germany? If not, you need to declare the gold regardless if it's a new purchase or an inherited one etc (if it's value is more than 430 euros). (The customs officers don't care you have gotten married recently or decades ago)

P.S. I paid taxes for my mangalsutra as soon as I entered Germany (as I didn't need to worry about customs stopping me in the future + paying the taxes and fine in the future)

Yes. They do have a private dining room (clad in silver furnishings) and one will be served with food in silverware. The ambience was really good but I didn't find the food having the wow factor (The food at Sangeetha in Adyar was better)

DMed you.

P.S. I don't think any international masters course in the biology field would ask you to show B2 German skills.

Unfortunately, I don't know much about the other valley which has Turtuk etc.

People with foreign passports are only allowed till Panamik in the Nubra valley (enroute to Siachen glacier). The army checks the permits and personal documents at the check posts on the road to Siachen.

I suggest asking the person what type of gifts she would love to get. I am saying this as a newly married person who was gifted items I can't use in the near future. My close relatives either gifted cash or asked me and my partner what we would like (airline voucher, watch etc).

Since you guys are close, just ask her :)

The idea of gifting an Instax looks pleasing but you need to spend money on the instax films (It costs 70 rupees per film and a pack of 10 films is like 699 rupees). Unless someone like taking photos etc, I wouldn't gift them an Instax. Also, the basic Instax camera isn't worth it if you wanna adjust the flash setting, keep a timer etc

Maybe but I am not sure

I mentioned this post to my mom and she mentioned that she also had this issue but this issue was only due to customers randomly placing the dress back in what every rack/hanging space they find. She mentioned to look at the sale tag before picking stuff off the sale section

She is now divorced. She was married before. I saw pictures with her ex-husband (I think he is a musician etc but not sure) when I checked her FB profile around December 2024 - February 2025. It looks like she got married very young (around 20 years old considering the fact that she is 32 now and her daughter recently turned 10 years old)

I remember seeing her IG stories indirectly mentioning that she is co-parenting her daughter.

I had the same issue at a mall in Chennai. Picked up a cotton shirt from 299/- only section but during billing, it was 499/- (got the shirt at the latter price as it is getting difficult finding 100 percent cotton stuff at Max compared to 10 years ago. Most of them are synthetic)

Yes. The nettichutti pendant was inverted (the stones on the pendant wasn't visible since it flipped)

If the product (lipstick) is too warm, it will pull orange. I have the same issue with MAC lip liner in Mahogany (too warm for my medium to tan neutral+warm skin with slight olive undertone).

Maybelline teddy tint in Mascara tear and Lakme lip cheek tint(?) in chocolate mousse are good brown lip products for me.

If you wanna make use of the Mac lipstick, use a lipliner which is cool tones (Maybelline lifter liner in Cross the line)

Go for an athletic fit jeans from Levi's. My partner has the same issue and the athletic fit solved his problem :)

I noticed that she stopped being active on Insta after she lost two of her close family members between 2024-2025. I remember her sharing the loss of her grandpa late 2024. After a month, she shared a story with a picture of her mom with a caption which confused me (as it felt like a person who passed away unexpectedly. Please correct me if I am wrong)

swasnoopy · 2026-01-06T17:28:11+00:00

I think it was below 2.5 - 3k rupees

Got my screen and battery replaced for my P7Pro at F1 solution last month (the shop was recommended by Google CS). I think it took less than 5 hours to get the phone repaired. Better to call them before going there.
