4 Reasons to Entrust India Logistics to TransGID

TransGID operates on its own infrastructure, which gives our clients guaranteed transit times and protection from hidden charges.

• Terminal in Novorossiysk

  We personally arrange cargo reception at the terminal and protect you from penalties (demurrage and detention).

• Customs Representative License

  Our declarants bear full legal responsibility for the release of goods, select the codes themselves, prove the customs value, and submit declarations under the TransGID seal.

• Direct IATA Accreditation

  Our logistics specialists hold direct accreditation with the International Air Transport Association, IATA. We do not buy services from agents; we book space in aircraft cargo holds directly with airlines. That is why, for urgent air freight from India, we guarantee departure even in peak season and transparent rates with no hidden fees.

• Secure Financial Logistics

  Russian banks often block or delay direct foreign currency transfers to Asia. TransGID solves this problem officially and without risks.

Customs Clearance of Goods from India

India is part of Russia's national system of tariff preferences as a developing country.

As a licensed customs representative, TransGID takes the process of obtaining preferences and customs clearance under its control.

Preference:

With correctly prepared documents, the importer can get a 25% discount off the base customs duty rate.

Key condition:

The Indian supplier must issue a Form A certificate of origin.

What we do:

We check invoices in advance, help obtain preferences, accurately select HS codes, and submit the declaration to the Electronic Declaration Center (EDC).

Benefit:

Clearance without the risk of customs value adjustment (CVA).

Clearance time:

1–2 days.

Export to India

India is a huge consumer market with a population of more than 1.47 billion people.

Russian businesses are actively increasing exports in this direction, and TransGID helps domestic manufacturers ship:

• agricultural products (chickpeas, peas, flax);
• food additives;
• fertilizers;
• timber;
• agro-industrial products;
• food ingredients;
• chemical raw materials.

For agricultural companies, TransGID supplies special food-grade containers – free of odors and industrial chemicals from previous voyages. We install grain liners (liner bags) inside, arrange phytosanitary control, obtain laboratory quality reports, and process the export declaration.

The client's accounting department receives an impeccable set of documents to close currency control.
