Zollabfertigung
Shipments from Indien to the USA require an ISF (Importer Security Filing) submitted 24 hours before departure. Required documents include: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and CBP Form 7501 for formal entries. Pharmaceutical products require FDA Drug Registration and prior approval in many cases. Textiles may be subject to quota restrictions or require textile declarations. Jewelry and gems may require GIA certificates and import permits. Food products require FDA Prior Notice. Wooden packaging must comply with ISPM 15.
Tarif & Abgaben
Indien and the Vereinigte Staaten do not have a free trade agreement. Indian goods are assessed at MFN (Most Favored Nation) tariff rates under WTO schedules. The US Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program, which previously provided duty-free treatment for many Indian goods, was suspended in June 2019 and has not been renewed as of 2025. Textile and apparel goods face MFN rates typically ranging from 10% to 32%. Pharmaceuticals (finished dosage forms) generally enter at 0% duty. Retaliatory tariffs between the US and Indien have affected certain specific product categories.

Noch Fragen?
Unser lokales Team analysiert Ihre spezifischen Frachtanforderungen.
Mit einem Experten sprechenHow long does shipping from Indien to the USA take?
Ocean freight from Indien to the USA takes 22–35 Tage depending on origin port and US gateway. JNPT (Mumbai) to Los Angeles is typically 22–28 Tage. Chennai to New York via Suez Canal takes 28–35 Tage. Air freight from major Indian airports to US cities takes 4–7 Tage door-to-door.
Is there a free trade agreement between Indien and the USA?
No. Indien and the Vereinigte Staaten do not currently have a free trade agreement. Goods are assessed at MFN tariff rates. The US GSP (Generalized System of Preferences) program, which previously allowed duty-free treatment for many Indian goods, was suspended in 2019. Limited trade framework agreements have been discussed, but no comprehensive FTA is in force.
What are the main ports for shipping from Indien to the USA?
Indien's primary container ports are: JNPT/Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) — the largest, handling over 5 million TEU annually; Mundra Port (Gujarat) — the largest private port; Port of Chennai (Tamil Nadu) — serving South Indien; and Kolkata Port (West Bengal) — serving Eastern Indien. JNPT and Mundra offer the most frequent direct services to US ports.
What documents are required for importing from Indien to the USA?
Required documents include: ISF (filed 24 Stunden before departure), commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, CBP Form 7501, and any applicable government certificates (FDA for pharma/food, textile declarations for apparel, GIA certificates for jewelry). Anti-dumping and countervailing duty cases may require additional declarations.
How are pharmaceuticals shipped from Indien to the USA?
Indien supplies approximately 45% of all generic drugs sold in the USA. Pharmaceutical shipments require FDA establishment registration, proper GDP (Good Distribution Practice) temperature control, and FDA Prior Notice for imports. Temperature-sensitive drugs typically move by air in validated thermal packaging. Suaid Global provides end-to-end pharma logistics with GDP-compliant handling.
What tariffs apply to Indian textiles imported into the USA?
Indian textiles and apparel are subject to MFN tariff rates, which range from approximately 10% to 32% depending on the specific HTS classification. The US GSP suspension (since 2019) means that Indian apparel no longer benefits from duty-free treatment. An FTA between the US and Indien, if concluded, would significantly reduce these rates.
What is the impact of the GSP suspension on imports from Indien?
The US GSP suspension in June 2019 removed duty-free treatment for approximately $5.6 billion worth of Indian goods annually. Products that previously entered at 0% are now assessed at MFN rates — typically 3–10% for manufactured goods and higher for textiles. Importers should review their HTS classifications and factor in the additional duty costs when sourcing from Indien.
