<h1>India's Sole FTA in 5 Years with Mauritius; Talks Ongoing with UAE, UK, EU, and More.</h1> India has signed only one Free Trade Agreement (FTA) in the past five years, the India-Mauritius Comprehensive Economic Cooperation and Partnership Agreement, effective from April 1, 2021. Ongoing FTA negotiations involve regions including the UAE, Israel, the Eurasian Economic Union, the UK, the EU, Canada, Australia, and the Southern African Customs Union. These agreements often incorporate provisions on Trade in Services, specifically addressing the temporary entry and stay of service suppliers. The timeline for concluding these negotiations remains uncertain, as agreements are finalized only when all parties are satisfied.
