Export from India to United Arab Emirates: what sells, who buys, and how to ship

The UAE is a top-three market and a re-export hub for the wider Gulf and Africa — strong for jewellery, food, textiles, machinery and auto parts.

Trade agreement & duty position

The India–UAE CEPA has been in force since May 2022, cutting or eliminating duty on the large majority of tariff lines. Claim it with a CEPA certificate of origin.

Whatever the tariff position, your certificate of origin (preferential where an agreement applies, non-preferential otherwise) is a required document. Confirm the live rate for your exact HS code with your customs broker before you quote.
