How customs duty is calculated in India

Assessable value (AV) = (FOB + Freight + Insurance) × exchange rate BCD = AV × BCD rate SWS = BCD × 10% AIDC = AV × AIDC rate (only for some goods) IGST = (AV + BCD + SWS + AIDC) × IGST rate Total = BCD + SWS + AIDC + IGST

Example: USD 10,000 FOB at ₹88, with 20% freight and 1.125% insurance, gives an AV of ₹10,65,900. At 10% BCD and 18% IGST the duty is ₹1,06,590 BCD + ₹10,659 SWS + ₹2,12,967 IGST = ₹3,30,216.

Find your duty rate

Rates depend on the 8-digit HS (ITC-HS) code of your product. Look it up in the CBIC Customs Tariff or the ICEGATE duty calculator. Also check for anti-dumping duty, BIS certification and any FTA concession (with a certificate of origin) that may apply.

Frequently asked questions

Is IGST on imports a cost?

Not if you are GST-registered and use the goods for business: you can claim it as input tax credit. BCD, SWS and AIDC are real costs that go into your landed price.

Are landing charges still added?

No. The 1% landing charge was removed from the valuation rules in 2017. AV is now FOB + freight + insurance.

Which exchange rate should I use?

CBIC notifies customs exchange rates every fortnight. The rate on the date the bill of entry is filed applies.

Is SWS charged on all goods?

SWS at 10% of BCD applies to most goods, but some items are exempt. Untick the box if your goods are exempt.
