  • Basic customs duty 7.5% on every one of them; with social welfare surcharge and IGST 18% that makes about 27.73%.
  • Lines that name a chemical are for that chemical; one that no line names goes under "Other" (2909 19 90).
  • Confirm the exact 8-digit line with your customs broker before you import.
