Yes, thats correct. The process is different coming in than going out. You won't need to pick up your bags and check them again in Newark as you did on the inbound.

Yes. Entering the US you have to claim bags so that you can go through customs with your bags. It wasn't by chance. That's the process.

Leaving the US there is no customs inspection so your bags will be checked through to Delhi. You can ask the check in agent when you check in if you want reassurance.

Just do the reverse from when you came from Delhi. The flight from Sfo-Newark is a domestic flight. You will check in at T3 at SFO. They will tag your bags all the way back to India and give you a boarding pass for your flight from Newark to Delhi.


There is no Immigration or Customs formalities when you depart the United States so you do not need to collect your luggage in Newark. Upon your arrival in Newark, just find the flight to Delhi.
