Под Обединеното кралство–Всеобхватно икономическо и търговско споразумение с Индия (CETA), подписан 24 юли 2025 и в сила от 15 юли 2026, UK customs duty on qualifying Indian garments fell to 0% from the first day.

Tariffs and preferences in the United States and the European Union

Importers bringing Indian silk scarves into the United States and the European Union face active customs charges and specific administrative mechanisms.

There is currently no bilateral trade agreement in force between the United States and India. Следователно, Indian silk scarves enter under standard Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN) rates plus additional trade measures. The standard MFN duty on woven silk scarves is 1.2%. Освен това, shipments are subject to a 10% additional duty under Section 301, което се събира от 24 юли 2026, което довежда общото мито до 11.2%. Previous IEEPA tariffs and the 25% Митото върху руския петрол приключи през февруари 2026. While Public Law 119-111, enacted on 18 септември 2026, permits an extra duty of up to 100% on goods from major buyers of Russian oil and gas, an Executive Order dated 16 октомври 2026 waives that duty until further action; it is not charged on Indian goods. The United States charges no import VAT or GST. US rates were verified on 23 октомври 2026.

In the European Union, Indian apparel currently receives tariff reductions under the EU Generalised Scheme of Preferences (GSP). Съгласно регламента за прилагане (ЕС) 2025/1909, GSP preferences for Indian textiles are suspended for the 2026–2028 цикъл, but apparel and finished textile made-up lines remain eligible. В резултат на това, woven silk scarves from India qualify for a reduced GSP rate of 6.4%, compared to the standard third-country duty of 8%. Importers claim this preference using a statement on origin made on the invoice by an exporter registered in the EU Registered Exporter (REX) система. Обновен регламент за ОСП, (ЕС) 2026/1395, влиза в сила от 1 януари 2027; check with your customs broker once the revised suspension lists are published. Import VAT in Germany stands at 19% върху митническа стойност плюс мито, which VAT-registered businesses deduct on regular returns.

Напред, negotiations for an EU–India Free Trade Agreement concluded on 27 януари 2026, and the European Commission submitted the signing decision to the Council on 11 септември 2026. The pact is not yet signed and is not in force; it cannot apply until approved by the Council, подписан, одобрено от Европейския парламент, and formally ratified by both parties. Under the draft schedule, customs duties on all garment lines will fall to 0% on entry into force. The draft origin rule for woven garments requires fabric to be woven or knitted in India or the EU; goods sewn from third-country fabric would not qualify.
