## Policy Analysis Report: Amendment to Foreign Trade Policy 2015-2020 regarding India-UAE CEPA Tariff Rate Quotas **1. Executive Summary:** This report analyzes an amendment to the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2015-2020, specifically concerning the implementation of Tariff Rate Quotas (TRQs) under the India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA). The amendment, enacted through Public Notice No. 06/2015-2020 dated May 1, 2022, revises the Handbook of Procedure and Appendix 2A of the FTP to incorporate items mentioned under TRQ under the India-UAE CEPA and defines the procedure for import of these items. The amendment aims to facilitate trade between India and the UAE by offering concessional tariff rates on specified items within defined quantity limits, affecting importers and exporters of these goods, particularly jewellery manufacturers importing gold. The key changes involve modifications to import procedures, allocation mechanisms, and eligibility criteria, particularly for gold imports under tariff heading 7108. **2. Introduction:** This report provides an analysis of the Public Notice No. 06/2015-2020, dated May 1, 2022, which amends the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2015-2020 concerning Tariff Rate Quotas (TRQs) under the India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA). The report aims to inform stakeholders, particularly those engaged in trade with the UAE, about the key changes and implementation procedures introduced by this amendment, based solely on the provided policy text. **3. Policy Overview:** * **Amendment:** This report analyzes an amendment to the Foreign Trade Policy 2015-2020. * **Core Objective(s):** The core objective of this amendment is to incorporate the items mentioned under Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) under the India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) and to establish procedures for the import of these items. It intends to boost trade between India and the UAE by providing tariff concessions within specified quotas. **4. Background and Rationale:** This amendment appears to address the need to operationalize the India-UAE CEPA, specifically regarding Tariff Rate Quotas. The original FTP likely lacked the specific provisions required to implement the TRQ mechanism outlined in the CEPA. This amendment fills that gap by establishing the necessary procedures, allocation methods, and eligibility criteria for importers to access the concessional tariff rates offered under the agreement, enabling trade within the agreed quotas. **5. Key Provisions / Changes:** This amendment specifically introduces the following changes: * **Specific Part of Original Policy Changed:** The amendment revises Para 2.107 of the Handbook of Procedure 2015-2020 and Appendix 2A of the FTP 2015-2020. * **New Rule/Provision:** The amendment incorporates items mentioned under Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) under the India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), lays down the procedure for import of the items under TRQ as Annexure IV of Appendix 2A in accordance with Notification No. 22/2022-Customs dated 30th April 2022. Annexure IV contains the list of items subject to TRQ along with their HS codes, applicable tariff concessions, and quota volumes over a five-year period, starting from year 5.0. * **Difference/Effect of Change:** This introduces tariff reductions for specified products from the UAE, up to a certain quantity (the quota). Above the quota, normal tariffs would apply. It also stipulates procedures for claiming these tariff reductions. It also includes conditions for gold TRQ under 7108. The amendment includes requirements for jewelery manufacturers such as GST number and filing returns as well as financial statements containing annual turnovers of the eligible applicant should be duly certifiedaudited by a Chartered Accountant, on the basis of the jewellers GST declarations. **6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:** The primary target audience and stakeholders directly affected by this amendment include: * Importers in India seeking to import goods from the UAE under the CEPA's TRQ scheme. * Exporters in the UAE exporting goods to India under the CEPA's TRQ scheme. * Specifically, jewelery manufacturers engaged in the import of gold under tariff heading 7108. * Nominated agencies or qualified jewelers who may import gold on behalf of jewelery manufacturers. * Processormanufacturers consuming specific inputs such as under 39041010, 39041020, 39041090, 39042100, 39043010, 39043090, 39046910, 39049010 and 39049090, and all other tariff lines except under tariff head 7113. **7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):** * **Responsible Agency/Bodies:** The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) is responsible for implementing the policy, including issuing TRQ authorizations. The Ministry of Finance, Department of Revenue, oversees the customs-related aspects, as per Notification No. 22/2022-Customs. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) plays a role through its notification of nominated agencies (banks). * **Timelines/Procedures:** * Applications for TRQ authorizations are to be submitted online through the DGFT website. * Annual allocation application deadline: 28th February of the previous financial year. * Gold TRQ applications are allocated quarterly. * For the current FY 2022-23, applications are invited from 5th May 2022 to 18th May 2022. Subsequently, for Gold TRQs for the third Quarter applications shall be invited from 1st August 2022 to 31st August2022, and for the fourth Quarter, applications shall be invited from 1st November 2022 to 30th November2022. **8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:** The likely intended outcome of these changes is to: * Facilitate increased trade volume between India and the UAE within the framework of the CEPA. * Lower the cost of importing specific goods from the UAE for Indian businesses due to the concessional tariff rates. * Promote the competitiveness of Indian jewelery manufacturers by providing access to gold at reduced tariff rates, subject to meeting eligibility criteria. * Streamline the import process for goods under TRQ through the online application system and electronic authorization. **9. Conclusion:** The amendment to the Foreign Trade Policy 2015-2020, enacted through Public Notice No. 06/2015-2020, is a crucial step in implementing the India-UAE CEPA's Tariff Rate Quota provisions. By incorporating items mentioned under TRQ under the India-UAE CEPA and defining import procedures, this amendment is expected to significantly impact trade relations between the two countries. It offers opportunities for businesses to access goods at concessional tariff rates, while also establishing regulatory frameworks for managing import volumes and ensuring compliance with the agreement. Specific rules are included regarding gold import under TRQ which includes specific requirements for the eligible entities. It is crucial for stakeholders to familiarize themselves with the new procedures and eligibility criteria to effectively utilize the benefits offered by this amendment.
