Can someone explain GR Waiver to me?

GR Waiver is a document issued by an Authorized Dealer (AD) bank that waives the requirement of filing a GR Form or SDF Form for certain types of exports or imports. GR Form or SDF Form is a declaration by the exporter or importer to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) that guarantees the realization of the export or import proceeds within a specified period1.

According to the Foreign Exchange Management (Export of Goods and Services) Regulations, 2000, GR Waiver can be granted by the AD bank for the following cases of exports or imports2:

Export or import of goods free of cost, for export promotion or as trade samples, up to a certain limit
Export or import of goods for repair, replacement, or re-import
Export or import of goods on lease, hire, or loan basis
Export or import of goods on elongated credit terms
Export or import of goods under counter-trade arrangements
Export or import of goods by Special Economic Zones (SEZs)
Export or import of currency
In your case, since the nature of shipment was marked as ‘Samples’, you may be eligible for GR Waiver, subject to the approval of your AD bank. You will have to submit a GR Waiver form along with the shipping bill or bill of entry to the customs authorities at the port of export or import34. You can download the GR Waiver form from the RBI website or from the How to Export Import website5.

I hope this helps you understand the concept of GR Waiver and its relevance to your transactions. If you have any further queries, you can contact your AD bank or the RBI for more guidance.
