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 (guavas, mangoes and mangosteens; fresh or dried) from India to UAE:

• Import duty in UAE: 0.0% MFN (applied)
• India export benefit: RoDTEP 1.7% of FOB

Duty impact

• Since UAE’s applied import duty is nil, your landed-duty cost is generally very low on the customs side.
• The main cost drivers are usually freight, handling, cold-chain/packaging, insurance, and any inspection/quarantine-related charges, not customs duty.

Documents you should prepare

For this lane, keep these ready:

1. Commercial Invoice

2. Packing List

3. Bill of Lading / Air Waybill

4. Certificate of Origin

5. Any applicable FTA / preferential origin document

6. Phytosanitary / inspection certificate for fresh produce, if required by UAE authorities

7. Insurance certificate

8. LC documents if payment is under letter of credit

India-side compliance

To export legally and claim benefits:

• IEC (Import Export Code) — mandatory
• GST registration — needed for exporters claiming tax refund/zero-rating benefits
• RCMC — needed if you want to claim DGFT export incentives such as RoDTEP
• Customs filing via ICEGATE

Benefits on this route

• RoDTEP 1.7% of FOB can improve margins
• UAE duty-free access makes this a strong market for Indian fresh fruit exporters
• The UAE is a major importer of this product group, so demand and re-export potential are strong

Practical note

Because this is fresh fruit, the key non-duty issues are usually:

• Shelf-life and transit time
• Cold-chain integrity
• Phytosanitary compliance
• Correct HS classification and origin proof

If you want, I can also give you:

1. a full landed cost model for this India–UAE shipment, or

2. a document checklist specifically for fresh mango/guava exports to UAE.
