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 330741 (agarbatti / odoriferous preparations operated by burning) from India to the Philippines:

1) Duty in the Philippines

• MFN import duty: 7.0%
• Preferential duty: 5.0%

If the shipment qualifies under an applicable preference and origin rules are met, the lower rate may apply. If not, expect the 7.0% MFN rate.

2) Export benefit from India

• RoDTEP benefit: 1.4% of FOB

This is the main export-side incentive indicated for this HS code from India.

3) Documents you should prepare

At minimum, keep these ready:

• Commercial Invoice
• Packing List
• Bill of Lading / Air Waybill
• Certificate of Origin
• FTA / preferential origin certificate if claiming lower Philippine duty
• Insurance document if applicable
• LC documents if the sale is under Letter of Credit
• Any inspection / product safety / health document if requested by buyer or customs

4) India-side compliance

For exporting from India, the key requirements are:

• IEC
• GST registration
• RCMC if you want to claim export incentives like RoDTEP
• Customs filing via ICEGATE

5) Practical benefit summary

• Lower Philippine duty may be possible: 5.0% instead of 7.0%
• Indian export incentive available: RoDTEP 1.4% FOB
• India is already the largest global exporter of this product group, so the lane is established and commercially active.

If you want, I can also give you:

1. a landed cost formula for this shipment to the Philippines, or

2. a document checklist for first-time export from India for agarbatti.
