How to export pharmaceutical from India: buyers, markets & requirements

India is 'the pharmacy of the world' — generics, APIs and nutraceuticals. Regulated markets (US, EU, UK, Australia) require heavy documentation; semi-regulated markets across Africa, LATAM and CIS are large by volume.

HS codes

Pharmaceutical exports fall under HS chapter 30. Classify precisely — the first six digits are international, the rest are India's ITC-HS extension. Your HS code drives duty, FTA eligibility and the paperwork the buyer's customs will expect.

Export requirements & certifications

Requirements change and are buyer- and destination-specific — confirm the current rules with your export promotion council and the buyer before you ship.

Documentation

Every pharmaceutical shipment needs the core set: commercial invoice, packing list, shipping bill, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin (preferential where an FTA applies), and the category-specific certificates above. See the full export documentation checklist and the pharmaceutical export guide.

Finding buyers

The reliable method: identify companies that already import pharmaceutical in your target market from customs data, reach the named procurement contact, and open on the trade signal — not a generic pitch. EximHub does that end to end. Read how to find export buyers or how customs trade data works.
