How to Save Money on Custom Charges

Customs charges can significantly impact the cost of imported goods, but with the right strategies, importers can save money and optimize their operations. At Befach, we help businesses reduce customs expenses through efficient sourcing, streamlined logistics, and expert customs clearance.

Tips to Save Money on Customs Charges

  • Leverage Duty Exemptions: Take advantage of government schemes like EPCG (Export Promotion Capital Goods) and Advance Authorization to reduce or eliminate customs duties. Learn more at the DGFT Official Website.
  • Understand Tariff Classifications: Ensure your goods are classified correctly under the Harmonized System (HS) codes to avoid overpaying duties. Visit the CBIC Official Website for tariff details.
  • Accurate Documentation: Submit complete and error-free documents, such as the Bill of Entry and commercial invoice, to avoid penalties and delays.
  • Optimize Shipping Methods: Choose cost-effective shipping options and consolidate shipments to reduce customs charges.
  • Stay Updated on Policies: Regularly track changes in customs regulations and trade agreements to leverage new opportunities.
