It helps in systematic classification of goods across the globe.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8216;rules of origin&#8217; provision prescribes minimal processing that should happen in the FTA country so that the final manufactured product may be called originating goods in that country.<\/p>\n<p>Under this provision, a country that has inked an FTA with India cannot dump goods from some third country in the Indian market by just putting a label on it. It has to undertake a prescribed value addition in that product to export to India. Rules of origin norms help contain dumping of goods.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndian exporters must know the export policy of India and the import policy in Australia for its product. India does not allow the import of items like wild animals and ivory products on public health, safety, and moral grounds,\u201d GTRI said adding trade agreements merely provide duty concession and do not give relaxation on import policy provisions.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content-10\" id=\"trade-2389048779\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- in_content_3_news -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2969612066\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p>It added that no imports are allowed if a product falls under the prohibited list of imports.<\/p>\n<p>GTRI also said Indian firms must also compare the MFN (most favoured nation) duty and trade agreement duties for a product as a company benefits from an agreement only when the customs duty under that pact\u00a0is lower than the MFN duty.<\/p>\n<p>MFN is a WTO (World Trade Organization) term indicating that a country must charge the same import duty from all countries for a product. When two countries do a trade pact, they decide to cut such duties on most products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA product must qualify as originating goods of the exporting party to get FTA duty concessions,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n<p>It also said that once a firm is sure that its product meets the rules of origin criteria, it should apply for issuing a Certificate of Origin (COO) to the agency nominated by the Indian or Australian government.<\/p>\n<p>Former Indian Trade Service officer Ajay Srivastava is the co-founder of GTRI. He took voluntary retirement from Government of India in March 2022. He has a rich experience in trade policy making, and issues related to WTO and FTAs.<\/p>\n<p>He was involved in the negotiation process of India&#8217;s FTAs with Japan and Australia.
