India–Chile PTA: which Indian garments pay less than 6% in Chile

Chile charges a flat 6% customs duty on almost every import, including clothing. 이후로 16 5월 2017, the expanded India–Chile Preferential Trade Agreement has cut that rate for a specific list of Indian garments, ~에 의해 30% 또는 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 10월 2026.

A margin, not a zero rate

The agreement gives a margin of preference: a percentage off Chile’s 6% general rate. 에이 30% margin leaves 4.2%; 에이 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
드레스: cotton or viscose, 짠; 면, 뜬 4.2% 6%
드레스: 폴리에스테르, silk or linen woven; viscose or polyester knitted 6% (not in the list) 6%
카프탄 worn as dresses As dresses above 6%
Kaftans in a loose robe or cover-up cut: 면 2.4% 6%
Kaftans in a loose robe or cover-up cut: other fibres 6% (not in the list) 6%
스커트: 면, 짠 4.2% 6%
스커트: other fibres, 우븐 또는 니트 6% (not in the list) 6%
스카프: cotton or linen, 짠 2.4% 6%
스카프: 비스코스, 짠 4.2% 6%
스카프: 명주, wool or polyester woven; 니트 스카프 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 보험 (CIF CLP 10,650,000):

No certificate (6%) Cotton dresses with certificate (4.2%) Cotton robe-cut kaftans with certificate (2.4%)
관세 CLP 639,000 CLP 447,300 CLP 255,600
IVA, 19% ~의 (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 인도–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.
