Safeguard measures for import surges allow duty, quota controls, and provisional action to protect domestic industry. Central Government may apply safeguard measures where increased imports of an article cause or threaten serious injury to domestic industry. The measures may include safeguard duty, tariff-rate quota, provisional safeguard measures, exemptions, and quota allocation rules, subject to limits for developing countries and special treatment for export-oriented undertakings and special economic zone units. Safeguard duty is additional to other duties, is time-limited, and Customs Act procedures apply as far as may be.
