Core Service Modules for India Export Industry Chain Agency
In 2026,India’s foreign trade regulatory policies continue to tighten,and the ICEGATE system at destination ports has completed a new round of upgrades,raising the requirement for advance manifest declaration and cargo information matching rate to over 98%.Meanwhile,the frequency of anti-dumping investigations against Chinese exports of mechanical and electrical products,chemicals,textiles and other categories has increased by 32% year-on-year.Many enterprises,due to unfamiliarity with local rules,encounter problems such as detention fees at ports,excessive tariffs,and delayed foreign exchange collection.As a local foreign trade agency in Shanghai,relying on a nationwide port linkage network and our partnered local customs clearance team in India,we provide full-link agency services for the India export industry chain.

Customs Clearance Certification Service for ICEGATE System at Destination Ports
In 2026,India’s Customs added a requirement for advance upload of electronic bills of lading to the ICEGATE system.Enterprises must submit complete manifest information 72 hours before the cargo arrives at the destination port,otherwise detention fees of 1,500 Indian Rupees per day will be charged.Last year,Mr.Mo’s hardware tools export order was deducted 21,000 Indian Rupees in detention fees due to late manifest submission as he failed to reserve system review time in advance.After our intervention,relying on our cooperative channels with local customs clearance brokers in India,we assisted him in submitting a delay explanation and supplementary manifest materials,and finally recovered the full amount of the deducted fees.
Our customs clearance services include: advance pre-review of manifest information,assistance in applying for FORM B Certificate of Origin under the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement,tracking the review progress of the ICEGATE system,ensuring fast customs clearance after cargo arrival,and avoiding hidden costs.
Anti-Dumping Early Warning and Compliance Response
In 2026,India’s Ministry of Commerce imposes anti-dumping duties of 20%-35% on Chinese exports of photovoltaic modules,steel products,auto parts and other categories.Some enterprises are forced to bear high tariffs due to failure to obtain early warning information in a timely manner.We have built a real-time trade early warning system,updating India’s anti-dumping investigation dynamics every week,and can also provide services such as price commitment application and cost certification material arrangement for enterprises.Ms.Sun’s mechanical and electrical equipment export order once encountered an anti-dumping investigation in India.We assisted her in organizing nearly 6 months of sales ledgers,production cost details and market quotation data,and finally reduced the applicable tax rate from 28% to 9%,saving the enterprise approximately 1.2 million RMB in tariff expenses.
Export Tax Refund Optimization Service
In 2026,China’s tax refund policy for exports to India remains stable,but customs’ review requirements for tax refund documents are becoming stricter,requiring complete matching of information on customs declaration forms,foreign exchange collection receipts,and certificates of origin.Otherwise,tax refunds will be delayed for 3-6 months.Our team will pre-review all tax refund documents for enterprises in advance to check for discrepancies in product names,quantities,amounts and other details.Meanwhile,relying on local resources at Shanghai Port,we can assist enterprises in handling tax refund connection for remote customs declaration,shortening the tax refund cycle to within 15 working days.
Foreign Exchange Collection Security
India implements strict foreign exchange controls,with restrictions on Rupee conversion,and local banks have significantly raised their review standards for letters of credit.In 2026,the document rejection rate of Indian issuing banks increased by 27% year-on-year.We can provide the following foreign exchange collection security services for enterprises:

- Advance review of the credit rating of Indian issuing banks,priority recommendation of letters of credit issued by large state-owned banks
