For HS 080450 (guavas, mangoes and mangosteens — fresh/dried) shipped from India to Turkey, the key points are:
- Turkey import duty (MFN/applied): 45%
- India export benefit: RoDTEP about 1.7% of FOB
- This is a strong trade lane for India because Turkey has steady demand for fresh tropical fruit, but the high duty means pricing and documentation matter a lot.
Duty
- Import duty in Turkey: 45% MFN (applied) on HS 080450.
- In practice, the landed cost may also include other import charges depending on the shipment structure, valuation, and whether any additional taxes/fees apply at clearance.
Documents you should prepare
For an India-to-Turkey fruit export, keep these ready:
1. Commercial Invoice
2. Packing List
3. Bill of Lading / Air Waybill
4. Certificate of Origin
5. Phytosanitary Certificate
- Very important for fresh fruits entering Turkey.
6. Inspection / quality / health certificate if required by the buyer or Turkish authorities
7. Insurance certificate
8. Export order / LC documents if payment is via letter of credit
India-side compliance
- IEC (Import Export Code) — mandatory
- GST registration — needed for regular export compliance and refund handling
- RCMC — useful/required if you want to claim DGFT export incentives like RoDTEP
- Customs clearance via ICEGATE
Benefits for the Indian exporter
- RoDTEP benefit: about 1.7% of FOB
- Exports are zero-rated under GST, so you can usually export without paying output GST, subject to procedure.
- If your shipment is compliant and documented correctly, you can reduce effective export costs through refunds/drawbacks and smoother customs processing.
Practical note for Turkey
Because Turkey’s duty is relatively high at 45%, buyers often focus heavily on:
- correct HS classification,
- clean phytosanitary documentation,
- origin proof,
- and competitive freight/cold-chain handling.
If you want, I can also give you:
1. a Turkey import checklist for fresh mangoes/guavas, or
2. a landed cost example for a specific FOB value.
