How Import Duty Works in India

Import duty in India consists of Basic Customs Duty (BCD), Social Welfare Surcharge (SWS at 10% of BCD), Integrated GST (IGST), and applicable cess. The effective rate depends on the product classification, country of origin, and any applicable trade agreements.

Use the 8-digit HS code for the most specific duty classification. Products from countries with which India has Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) or Preferential Trade Agreements (PTAs) may qualify for reduced duty rates, subject to Rules of Origin compliance.
