Export policy (DGFT ITC(HS) Schedule 2) of its tariff items
- Free: 3 tariff items
What buyers pay abroad: import duty in the US, UK, EU and Australia for 6103 39, and China's below.
China: the same goods (6103 39)
China shares the first 6 digits with India and splits them into 10-digit codes of its own: 1 in force and 6 expired under 6103 39. Exporters see what China charges Indian goods; importers see the rebate and licences their Chinese supplier deals with.
| China code | Goods | Duty on Indian goods | MFN | Import VAT | Export rebate | Licences |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6103.39.00.00 | Other knitted or crocheted men's upper garments, of other textile materials其他纺织材料制针织或钩编男式上衣 | 3.9%APTA rate, with an APTA certificate of origin | 6% | 13% | 13% | None |
- India is a member of the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement (APTA). With an APTA certificate of origin, Indian goods pay China's APTA rate where the line has one; China applies the lower of that and its provisional rate.
- The export VAT rebate is what China refunds its own exporters. When China cuts it, Chinese export prices tend to rise.
