FAQ :
No, the claim that the government has increased import duties on certain commodities is factually incorrect. The effective rates of duty have not changed.
The Customs Tariff has been aligned with the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HS)-2022 of the World Customs Organisation, effective from 01.01.2022. This has resulted in amendments such as the creation of new tariff lines or deletion of obsolete entries.
No, the alignment with HS-2022 has led to amendments in the Tariff Schedule but has not resulted in any change in the effective rates of duties.
Guidance documents explaining the changes to HS codes for commodities have been published on the CBIC website.
You can contact the CBIC directly if you have any grievances or queries regarding these changes.
