What is the News?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The government of India has notified the new Foreign Trade Policy(FTP) 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does the Foreign Trade Policy 2023 provide for the import of second-hand goods?<\/b><\/h2>\n

FTP 2023 has adopted a new approach to the import of second-hand electronics and IT goods.<\/span><\/p>\n

The policy allows the import of used second-hand goods into the country for the purpose of repair, refurbishing, re-conditioning or re-engineering with an intent to re-export them.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, such imports will be conditional upon importers ensuring that any waste generated during the repair or refurbishing process is treated as per domestic laws and environmental, safety and health norms.<\/span><\/p>\n

Note:<\/b><\/em> The import of second-hand air conditioners, desktop and laptop computers, their refurbished spares as well as diesel generators will continue in the \u2018restricted\u2019 imports category that requires prior authorisation<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the significance of these new rules on the import of second-hand goods?<\/b><\/h2>\n

This move will encourage reconditioning and refurbishment activities for re-exports.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It would also enhance effective control and regulation in relation to the import of such goods and prevent unwarranted importation of such second-hand electronic goods into India proving detrimental to the indigenous markets.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
