Advance Authorization for Packing Materials was, therefore, designed to ease such import and export operations. As such, business concerns like Kireeti Consultants would be in a position to get duty-free access for essential packaging inputs, just like raw materials and machinery. This is a provision under the scheme of DGFT, which provides for the import of packing materials without paying any customs duty by an exporter, but it shall be linked directly to export obligation. This makes international trade in goods cheaper and easier to handle.

Core Benefits

Exemption of duty on importation of packing material, in addition to saving through import of raw materials and machinery, will contribute to minimizing the overall cost of production to meet export commitments. The exporter would be required to account for these inputs accurately by ensuring use just sufficient for the requirements of packaging of goods exported, without excessive wastage.
