Frequently asked — Vietnam

How does the India-ASEAN FTA work?
India-ASEAN AIFTA (in force 2010) provides preferential tariff rates between India and 10 ASEAN nations. India exporters to ASEAN pay reduced or zero duty on goods meeting 35% ASEAN/India regional value content. The FTA covers goods; a separate services agreement covers IT and professional services. ASEAN nations covered: Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Brunei.
What is CPTPP and is India in it?
CPTPP (Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership) is an 11-nation Asia-Pacific FTA. India is not a CPTPP member. India applied for accession consideration in 2023. CPTPP members include Japan, Australia, Canada, Mexico, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand, Chile, Peru, Brunei, and UK (joined 2024). CPTPP membership would significantly boost India' trade with Asia-Pacific.
What is the EU import duty on Indian garments?
Under EU standard GSP (currently applicable to India), Indian garments attract approximately 9.6-12% import duty (depending on HS code), with GSP preference reducing this by approximately 20% — to approximately 7.6-9.6%. Under India-EU FTA (when concluded), garments are expected to go to 0% over a phased schedule (likely 5-10 years). Currently, Vietnamese garments enter EU at gradually reducing rates under EVFTA — creating a competitive advantage that India-EU FTA aims to equalise.
