Frequently asked — Concordia

What is an FTA and why does it matter?
A Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is a treaty between countries to eliminate or reduce import tariffs and other trade barriers. For Indian exporters, an FTA means goods can enter the partner country at 0% or reduced duty instead of the standard MFN tariff — directly improving price competitiveness. AJG optimises every mandate to use applicable FTA routes.
How do I calculate FTA duty savings?
Use AJG' FTA Savings Estimator tool at tools/fta-savings-estimator.php. Enter: (1) HS code of your product, (2) country of export (India), (3) country of import, (4) CIF value of shipment. The tool calculates: current MFN duty, FTA preferential duty, savings per shipment, annual savings at your projected volume, and which FTA applies.
What is TARIC and how do I use it?
TARIC (Tariff Integré Communautaire) is the EU' integrated customs tariff database at trade.ec.europa.eu/access-to-markets. It provides 10-digit commodity codes for all goods entering the EU, plus all applicable measures: MFN tariff rate, GSP preferential rate, anti-dumping duties, tariff rate quotas, safeguard measures, and import prohibitions. Use TARIC to verify the exact duty on your Indian goods entering EU.
What is the EU marketing authorisation procedure for Indian generics?
Indian generic pharma companies typically use the Decentralised Procedure (DCP) or Mutual Recognition Procedure (MRP) for EU marketing authorisation: (1) file an ANDA-equivalent (ASMF/CTD dossier) with a reference member state (RMS) authority, (2) RMS assesses the dossier (12-18 months), (3) Concerned Member States (CMS) review, (4) Marketing Authorisation granted across 2-27 EU member states. Alternative: Centralised Procedure via EMA — one application, valid in all 27 EU states — used for innovative/complex products.
What is an ASMF and why do API manufacturers need one?
ASMF (Active Substance Master File) is a technical dossier submitted by an API manufacturer to a European regulatory authority describing the manufacture, characterisation, and quality control of an API. The ASMF allows finished dose manufacturers to reference the API manufacturer' confidential manufacturing data without disclosing it. An ASMF-holding Indian API manufacturer can supply multiple EU finished dose manufacturers who all reference the same ASMF. Alternatively, CEP from EDQM serves a similar purpose.
What certifications do Indian textile exporters need for EU?
Indian textile exporters to EU need: (1) OEKO-TEX Standard 100 — tests for harmful substances, required by most EU buyers, (2) GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) — for organic cotton/wool/silk products, (3) REACH compliance — no SVHC substances above limits, (4) Bluesign — for sustainable dyeing and finishing (growing EU buyer requirement), (5) SA 8000 — social accountability certification (required by some EU brands), (6) BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) membership — for cotton products. AEPC India provides guidance on EU buyer certification requirements.
