현재 8 10월 2026, whether you buy garments under DDP or DAP terms, customs duty and import VAT or GST are calculated on the customs value at the border, and you can only reclaim or defer import tax cleanly when your own business is recorded on the customs declaration. On qualifying Indian-origin woven and knitted 드레스, 카프탄, skirts and scarves, preferential duty is 0% in the United Kingdom under the UK–India CETA and 0% in Australia under the Australia–인도, while Germany charges 6.4% 에게 9.6% under the EU GSP against standard duties of 8% 에게 12%. Because standard commercial delivery definitions are not set out in customs tax legislation, you should check with your customs broker how DDP or DAP contract terms affect importer-of-record liability for your shipment.
Who accounts for import VAT when a supplier or broker clears your garments
Importers of women’s dresses, 카프탄, skirts and scarves often compare arrangements where the supplier arranges for someone to import and deliver the goods (commonly discussed as DDP) with arrangements where the buyer or the buyer’s broker clears customs at destination (commonly discussed as DAP). Where specific contractual obligations under DDP or DAP are not defined by customs authorities, check with your customs broker before agreeing shipping terms.
In the United Kingdom, HM Revenue & 세관 (HMRC) 안내 (last updated 16 6월 2025) allows a UK VAT-registered business to use 연기된 VAT 회계 (PVA) to declare and recover import VAT on the same VAT Return rather than paying it upfront at the border, 따라서 순 비용은 0입니다.. No approval is needed to use PVA for imports into Great Britain from anywhere outside the UK, or into Northern Ireland from outside the UK and EU. 두 가지 조건이 적용됩니다: the imported goods must be for use in your business with the right to dispose of them (usually as the owner), and your UK VAT registration number must be included on the import declaration (where VAT is recorded against your EORI number).
If you buy goods from a supplier who arranges for a person or business to import and deliver the goods for you, HMRC states that you must agree with the supplier how you want to account for import VAT and provide your EORI number. The supplier must give the person or business importing the goods written instructions before they make the import declaration, and you should keep a written record of what you agree. Equally, if a freight forwarder, customs agent, broker or express operator imports goods on your behalf, you must instruct them in writing before the declaration is submitted—you cannot change how import VAT is accounted for once the declaration is lodged. Non-established taxable persons without a UK establishment must appoint someone to deal with customs and instruct them to select PVA and enter the importer’s details as the consignee. Note that consignments over £135 delivered by post through Royal Mail Group (including Parcelforce when not acting as an express operator) cannot use PVA on a VAT Return, and different rules apply to consignments of £135 이하.

EU에서는, 인도는 표준 GSP 수혜자입니다.. Although the EU suspended GSP for Indian textiles for 2026–2028, it did not suspend GSP for apparel, so Indian garments continue to receive the 6.4% 에게 9.6% GSP rate; a renewed GSP regulation applies from 1 1월 2027 and requires a fresh list of suspended sections. Separately, the EU and India concluded negotiations on a Free Trade Agreement on 27 1월 2026, and the European Commission proposed the signing decision to the Council on 11 구월 2026. ~에 5 10월 2026, 트리뷴 (연령) reported remarks by France’s minister for European affairs, 벤자민 하다드, that the deal could remove €4 billion a year in tariffs (the Commission’s estimate of duty savings for EU exporters to India) and double bilateral trade. 하지만, the EU–India agreement is not yet signed and not in force; after signature, the European Parliament must consent and both sides must ratify, with no official entry-into-force date announced. Its draft EU schedule eliminates duty to 0% on every garment line once in force, but under a stricter draft origin rule requiring the fabric to be woven or knitted in India or the EU.
How customs value, transport and origin paperwork affect what is paid at the border
Even when preferential duty is 0%, the customs valuation and freight charges determine the import VAT or GST bill. Under HMRC guidance (last updated 26 구월 2025), UK import VAT must be based on the customs value for duty even when no duty is payable, adding any duty plus incidental expenses—commission (excluding buying commission, which is accounted for under the reverse charge procedure), 포장, transport, 보험, customs clearance charges, quay rent, entry fees, 초과 정박, handling, loading and storage—up to the goods’ first destination in the UK, and to a further UK destination if known at importation. Royalty or licence fees and prompt-payment discounts (if still available at import) may be left out. Importers can calculate UK incidental expenses using Method 1 (actual costs), Method 2 (nationally agreed estimates where international movement terminates in the UK and freight to the UK border is separately distinguished: for airfreight, the greater of 40p per chargeable kilo or £100 최저한의; for surface groupage or consolidation, £90 per gross weight tonne plus £80 per consignment, 최저한의 £170; for surface full load consignments, £550), or Method 3 (an individual agreement).
호주에서는, 그만큼 10% GST is payable at the same time and in the same manner as customs duty unless the importer is approved by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for the Deferred GST scheme (which requires an Australian Business Number, GST registration, monthly electronic Business Activity Statement lodging and payment, electronic dealings with the Australian Border Force, and no outstanding ATO debt or returns). The value of the taxable importation includes international transport and insurance to the port or airport of final destination on the bill of lading or air waybill, or to the Australian address for post and door-to-door courier parcels under 31.5 kgs.
To secure preferential duty at clearance, your customs broker needs the correct proof of origin for each trade agreement:
- 영국–인도 CETA (0% duty): Garments must originate in India under the agreement’s change of tariff classification and minimum Indian value content rule, supported by an exporter’s origin declaration on the invoice or a certificate of origin issued in India. We issue the certificate of origin for every qualifying shipment.
- EU GSP in Germany (6.4%–9.6% duty): The exporter must be registered in the EU’s REX system and place a statement on origin on the invoice for your broker to claim the reduced rate.
- 호주–인도 (0% duty): Garments must meet the textile origin rule (change of classification plus minimum qualifying value content) and have a certificate of origin obtained from the Indian issuing agency, as there is no self-declaration route (consignments of AUD 1,000 or less do not need one).
