Companies Must Take Fresh Approvals To Import Laptops To India
The country launched an "import management system" which required companies to register with the government the quantity and value of their laptop and tablet imports.
India said companies will have to seek fresh approvals to import laptops and tablets starting from and guidelines to do so will be issued shortly.
India launched an "import management system" in which required companies to register with the government the quantity and value of their laptop and tablet imports.
The government said at the time the data would be used for monitoring imports. The system, due to expire this month, has been extended until year-end.
"Importers would be required to apply for fresh authorisations for the period from 01.01.2025 subject to detailed guidance to be provided shortly," said a government notification.
India announced the new system for laptops, tablets, personal computers and servers after it rolled back an earlier plan to impose a licensing regime, requiring the likes of Apple, Dell and HP to obtain licences for shipments of imported laptops and tablets.
The policy was part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's efforts to boost local manufacturing and ensure a trusted supply chain, as India remains reliant on imports for such electronics.
Reuters reported that India reversed the laptop licensing policy after lobbying by US officials who remained concerned about New Delhi's compliance with WTO obligations and new rules it issue.
"India's repeated delay in implementing laptop import restrictions, likely influenced by U.S. concerns, needs to end," said Ajay Srivastava, founder of Global Trade Research Initiative, a Delhi-based basked think-tank.
Under a federal subsidy scheme for local production of laptops, tablets and personal computers, India last year approved applications from companies including Dell.
