What are Rules of Origin and how do I comply?
Rules of Origin (RoO) determine whether a product qualifies as sufficiently made in India to claim FTA preference. Most India FTAs use: (a) Change in Tariff Classification (CTC) — the HS code must change through Indian processing, or (b) Regional Value Content (RVC) — typically 35-40% of the product value must be Indian. AJG' FTA Savings Estimator tool calculates your RoO eligibility.
Why did India not join RCEP?
India withdrew from RCEP negotiations in November 2019 citing: (1) concerns about Chinese goods surge through the 0% tariff route, (2) inadequate service sector commitments (no meaningful Mode 4 provisions), (3) data localisation and e-commerce provisions, (4) structural trade deficit with multiple RCEP members. India is considering re-joining as conditions evolve.
What is duty drawback in India?
Duty Drawback (DBK) is a refund of customs duties paid on imported raw materials subsequently used in the manufacture of exported goods. Two types: (1) All Industry Rate (AIR) — published rates for broad product categories; (2) Brand Rate — specific rate calculated for your actual input costs. Claimed through shipping bill at time of export.
What is Binding Tariff Information (BTI)?
BTI is an official EU customs decision providing a legally binding classification of your specific product under the EU tariff nomenclature. Valid for 3 years across all EU member states. Apply through any EU member state customs authority (e.g., HMRC in UK pre-Brexit, or Dutch Customs if entering via Rotterdam). Eliminates HS code disputes at EU customs.
What is the role of SWIFT in India-EU trade payments?
SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) is the global messaging network banks use for international payment instructions and LC communications. Key SWIFT messages in India-EU trade: MT700 (LC issuance), MT710 (LC advice by bank), MT103 (international wire transfer), MT202 (bank-to-bank transfer). All India-EU international payments are routed through SWIFT.
