Frequently Asked Questions

What payment terms are standard for Indian textile imports?

Standard payment structure is 30% advance via TT (telegraphic transfer) plus 70% against copy of bill of lading. Letters of credit (LC) are recommended for first-time relationships or large orders ($50,000+). Established repeat buyers can negotiate DA/DP terms or open account. Avoid 100% advance payment except for very small sample orders.

How do I verify an Indian supplier before placing a large order?

Verify: IEC code (Indian Import-Export Code from DGFT), GST registration, physical factory address (via video call or third-party visit), references from 2+ existing international customers, SEDEX or BSCI social audit, relevant OEKO-TEX/GOTS scope certificates. Pre-shipment inspection is essential — budget $250–500 per shipment via SGS, Intertek or Bureau Veritas.

What HS code applies to my product for import duty?

HS code depends on fibre composition and construction. Silk items are Chapter 50; wool Chapter 51; cotton Chapter 52; knitted apparel Chapter 61; woven apparel Chapter 62; home textiles Chapter 63. Get a formal HS code determination from your destination customs broker before first import — mis-classification causes customs delays and unexpected duty charges.

Can Indian suppliers ship directly to my end customer (dropshipping)?

Yes, dropshipping from India is technically possible. But it comes with challenges: 14–35 day sea transit customer expectation management, unexpected destination duty charges, complex returns handling, quality control gaps per shipment. For most brands, a wholesale-import-then-fulfil model produces better customer experience than pure dropshipping.
