Yes, you will require an Import Export Code (IEC) to import back covers from China. Customs charges will depend on the value of the goods, and may include import duty, GST, and other levies. Contact the Customs department or a customs broker for specific details and current rates.

As the sole importers of a unique orbital implant, exclusively manufactured in the USA, we’re facing a peculiar situation. This specialized product, not found anywhere else in the world, including India, falls under Chapter 9021 (3900) with a custom duty structure of 7.5% Basic Custom Duty, 2% SHE Cess, and 4% Additional Duty. Given that there are no comparable products manufactured domestically, as per the Custom Tariff Act 1975 3(1), we’d like to understand the rationale behind imposing an additional duty on this imported essential.

We’re ready to pay the excise duty at the time of payment, but the manufacturer insists on receiving a CT1 form. The excise department in their area says CT1 is mandatory, even if we handle the duty. Is there any official notification that allows exports while paying excise duty without submitting a CT1? Any advice on resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated.
