Chile charges a flat 6% customs duty on almost every import, including clothing. 以降 16 May 2017, the expanded India–Chile Preferential Trade Agreement has cut that rate for a specific list of Indian garments, による 30% または 60%. It is not a zero-duty deal, and it does not cover every fabric: whether a garment qualifies depends on its fibre. This guide shows which garments get the margin, what it is worth on a shipment, and the certificate that claims it. Checked against Chilean customs sources on 7 10月 2026.
A margin, not a zero rate
The agreement gives a margin of preference: a percentage off Chile’s 6% general rate. あ 30% margin leaves 4.2%; ある 60% margin leaves 2.4%. Lines that are not in Chile’s list keep the full 6%.
Which garments get it
| Garment from India | With PTA certificate | Without |
|---|---|---|
| ドレス: cotton or viscose, 織られた; コットン, ニット | 4.2% | 6% |
| ドレス: ポリエステル, silk or linen woven; viscose or polyester knitted | 6% (not in the list) | 6% |
| カフタン worn as dresses | As dresses above | 6% |
| Kaftans in a loose robe or cover-up cut: コットン | 2.4% | 6% |
| Kaftans in a loose robe or cover-up cut: other fibres | 6% (not in the list) | 6% |
| スカート: コットン, 織られた | 4.2% | 6% |
| スカート: other fibres, 織りまたはニット | 6% (not in the list) | 6% |
| スカーフ: cotton or linen, 織られた | 2.4% | 6% |
| スカーフ: ビスコース, 織られた | 4.2% | 6% |
| スカーフ: シルク, wool or polyester woven; ニットスカーフ | 6% (not in the list) | 6% |
The pattern is clear: Chile’s list favours cotton and viscose. A polyester or silk version of the same dress gets no reduction.
What it is worth on a shipment
Chile values imports on a CIF basis and charges 19% IVA on the CIF value plus duty. Take garments invoiced at CLP 10,000,000, with CLP 600,000 freight and CLP 50,000 保険 (CIF CLP 10,650,000):
| No certificate (6%) | Cotton dresses with certificate (4.2%) | Cotton robe-cut kaftans with certificate (2.4%) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 関税 | CLP 639,000 | CLP 447,300 | CLP 255,600 |
| IVA, 19% の (CIF + duty) | CLP 2,144,910 | CLP 2,108,487 | CLP 2,072,064 |
The duty saving is CLP 191,700 on the dresses and CLP 383,400 on the robe-cut kaftans. The IVA is normally recovered as input tax by a registered business, so the duty line is the real saving.
How to claim it
- Chilean customs needs an インド–Chile PTA certificate of origin issued in India. Indian exporters apply through the government’s eCoO platform.
- The certificate must cover the garment line being entered. If the line is not in Chile’s list, the certificate does not lower the duty.
- Describe the fibre content on the invoice. The fibre decides whether the line is in the list at all.
