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 080450 (mangoes, guavas and mangosteens: fresh or dried) from India to France:

• Import duty in France: 0.0% MFN (applied)
• Export benefit from India: RoDTEP benefit up to 1.7% of FOB
• Commercial opportunity: France imported about $109.4M of this product in 2024, so it is a real but niche market.

Documents you should prepare

For this lane, the usual export/import set is:

1. Commercial Invoice

2. Packing List

3. Bill of Lading / Airway Bill

4. Certificate of Origin

5. Phytosanitary Certificate from India’s plant quarantine authority

6. FSSAI-related export compliance if the shipment is under food safety controls

7. Treatment / cold-chain / inspection certificate if required by the buyer or consignee

8. Insurance certificate if sold CIF/CIP

9. Export declaration through customs in India

France / EU compliance points

Because France is in the EU, fresh fruit shipments commonly need:

• Phytosanitary clearance
• EU food-safety and plant-health compliance
• Correct botanical/HS classification and traceability
• Labeling with origin, packer/exporter details, and lot identification
• Cold-chain maintenance and residue/compliance checks if requested

India-side benefits

• RoDTEP 1.7% of FOB is the main direct export incentive in the engine context.
• If you are an eligible exporter, keep your IEC, GST registration, and RCMC ready to claim benefits smoothly.

Practical note

Even though the import duty is zero, this product’s success depends more on:

• shelf life and temperature control
• phytosanitary compliance
• post-harvest treatment
• quality grading and packaging

If you want, I can also give you a France import checklist for mango shipments or a shipment cost/duty estimate on your FOB value.
