The Impact of the EU-India Free Trade Agreement

The recently concluded EU–India Free Trade Agreement is the most significant trade development for cross-border business between European Union and India in a generation. After almost twenty years of negotiations, the agreement substantially liberalises trade in goods, with tariffs reduced or eliminated on approximately 96.6% of bilateral trade lines once fully phased in. Key beneficiary sectors include industrial machinery, automotive and auto components, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, electrical equipment, and advanced manufacturing inputs — all areas where EU firms are deeply integrated into global supply chains.

Beyond tariff reductions, the agreement introduces important rules-of-origin frameworks, streamlined customs procedures, and enhanced trade facilitation measures designed to reduce administrative friction at the border. For companies operating manufacturing, sourcing, or assembly operations in India, these provisions are expected to improve predictability around import classification, duty treatment, and cross-border logistics — particularly for businesses using India as a regional production or export base.

The agreement also extends into services, investment, and regulatory cooperation, reinforcing India’s attractiveness as a destination for EU-based groups establishing subsidiaries, shared service centres, R&D hubs, and regional headquarters. Commitments on market access, transparency, and regulatory dialogue are intended to support greater legal certainty for foreign investors, while complementary chapters on intellectual property protection, sustainability, and labour standards reflect the EU’s broader trade policy framework.

Eligibility for tariff preferences, efficient customs treatment, and long-term operational flexibility depends heavily on how an Indian entity is incorporated, capitalised, licensed, and integrated into group supply chains. MSA can support your decision-making around entity type, import-export registration, GST positioning, and intercompany arrangements in order to best benefit from the operation of the Free Trade Agreement.
