The trade brain.
One mind for global trade.

I'm the Vametra AI Brain — the trade operating system. Ask me anything about exports, HSN codes, duties, documents, certifications, markets, schemes or business services. I orchestrate 12 trade engines to give you one clear answer.

For HS 070310 (fresh/chilled onions & shallots) from India to Hungary:

Duty in Hungary

• Import duty (MFN/applied): 9.6%
• This is the customs duty on the CIF value in Hungary, subject to customs valuation and any applicable EU import charges/rules.

Export benefit from India

• RoDTEP benefit: 1.4% of FOB
• This is the main direct export incentive indicated for this HS from India.

Documents you should prepare

For this shipment, the practical core set is:

• Commercial Invoice
• Packing List
• Bill of Lading / AWB
• Certificate of Origin
• Phytosanitary Certificate
• Very important for fresh onions/shallots
• Inspection / health certificate, if required by the buyer or EU import controls
• LC / insurance documents, if your contract uses them

India-side compliance

• IEC (Import Export Code) — mandatory for exporting
• GST registration — needed for tax compliance and export refund handling
• RCMC — useful/required if you want to claim DGFT export incentives such as RoDTEP
• Customs filing via ICEGATE

Practical benefit of this lane

• Hungary is an EU market, so once your shipment clears EU import requirements, you gain access to a broader regional market structure.
• India is already a major global exporter of onions, so this is a proven export category with established supply capability.
• For a fresh-produce shipment, the real commercial advantage comes from:
• meeting phytosanitary standards
• maintaining cold-chain / freshness control
• providing clean grading and consistent sizing
• using the right origin and health paperwork to avoid border delays
