For HS 080450 (fresh/dried guavas, mangoes and mangosteens) from India to Benin:
Duty in Benin
- Import duty (MFN): 20% of customs value.
- This is the applied rate from the engine context for Benin on HS 080450.
Export benefit from India
- RoDTEP benefit: 1.7% of FOB value
- This can help offset some embedded taxes/duties in India on export.
Documents you should prepare
For this lane, the usual set is:
1. Commercial Invoice
2. Packing List
3. Bill of Lading / Air Waybill
4. Certificate of Origin
5. Phytosanitary Certificate
- Important for fresh fruit, and often essential for mangoes/guavas entering West African markets.
6. Fumigation / treatment certificate if required by the importer or for pest-risk control
7. Import permit / sanitary requirement documents if Benin’s buyer or customs asks for them
8. Insurance certificate if insured under CIF/CIP
9. Export declaration and customs filing in India
India-side compliance
To export legally from India, you generally need:
- IEC
- GST registration if applicable
- RCMC if you want to claim export incentives like RoDTEP
- Customs clearance via ICEGATE
Practical Benin import note
Because this is fresh produce, Benin buyers often care about:
- phytosanitary compliance
- clean packing and labeling
- cold-chain handling
- shelf-life documentation / harvest date
If you want, I can also give you a landed cost estimate for Benin using your FOB price, or a country-specific export checklist for mangoes/guavas to Benin.
