Frequently asked — Bil‘īn

How does a Letter of Credit work?
A Letter of Credit (LC) is a bank' written undertaking to pay the Indian exporter a specified amount upon presentation of complying shipping documents within a stipulated time. Process: (1) EU buyer instructs their bank (issuing bank) to open an LC, (2) LC is transmitted via SWIFT MT700 to an Indian advising bank, (3) Indian exporter ships goods and presents documents to the advising/negotiating bank, (4) if documents comply, the bank pays the exporter. The LC is the most secure payment method for India-EU trade.
What is ECGC and how does it protect Indian exporters?
ECGC (Export Credit Guarantee Corporation of India) is the government-owned export credit insurer. ECGC provides: (1) Buyer exposure limits — ECGC assesses your EU buyer and issues a credit limit, (2) Export credit insurance — if buyer defaults, ECGC pays 60-90% of the loss, (3) Bank guarantees — allowing Indian banks to provide pre/post-shipment credit. AJG recommends ECGC cover for all new EU buyer relationships.
What is the EU Digital Product Passport?
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is an EU requirement under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) for a digital record of a product' sustainability attributes, materials, recycled content, and end-of-life instructions. DPP will be mandatory for: batteries (2027), textiles and garments (2027), electronics (2028). Indian exporters of batteries, textiles, and electronics must prepare data infrastructure to generate and attach DPPs to their products.
Can Indian pharma companies participate in EU tenders?
Yes, Indian generic pharma companies with EU marketing authorisations can participate in EU national healthcare system tenders. Key tender markets: Germany (GKV-SV volume tenders), UK (NHS Drug Tariff), France (CEPS), Italy (AIFA), Netherlands (ZorgInstituut). Winning tenders requires: MA, competitive pricing, reliable supply chain, EU GMP facility, and often a local EU distribution partner. PHARMEXCIL India organises EU tender facilitation workshops.
What is the EU Textiles Regulation and how does it affect Indian exporters?
EU Textiles Labelling Regulation 1007/2011 requires: (1) fibre composition labelling in official EU language(s) of country of sale, (2) correct use of fibre names (e.g., 'cotton' only for 100% cotton), (3) indication of non-textile parts (buttons, zips), (4) country of manufacture ('Made in India'). Additionally, from 2025 onward, DPP (Digital Product Passport) for textiles will require additional sustainability data. Non-compliant labelling causes products to be stopped at EU customs or removed from shelves.
What is the EU MRL and how do I ensure compliance?
Maximum Residue Level (MRL) is the maximum legally permitted level of pesticide residue in or on food in the EU. EU MRLs are often stricter than Codex Alimentarius standards. To ensure compliance: (1) check EU MRLs for your product and specific pesticides on the EU Pesticides Database (ec.europa.eu/pesticides), (2) use only EU-authorised pesticides during cultivation, (3) test your product at an EU-accredited laboratory (or Indian NABL-accredited lab with EU standard methods) before export, (4) keep test certificates for at least 5 years. EU Border inspection posts (BIPs) routinely test Indian agro-food for MRL compliance.
