<h1>India Clarifies IT Hardware Import Rules: SEZ Exemptions, Spare Parts Unrestricted, Laptops/Tablets Need Authorization.</h1> The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) in India issued clarifications in October 2023 and January 2024 regarding IT hardware imports. The October circular exempts Special Economic Zones and certain units from restricted import authorizations for specific IT hardware, allows unrestricted import of spare parts, and provides exemptions for IT hardware used as capital goods. The January circular mandates import authorizations for laptops, tablets, and servers under HSN 8471, excluding desktop computers. These measures aim to boost domestic IT hardware production, encouraging local assembly while regulating high-import items, impacting trade strategies and aligning with India's self-reliance goals.
