India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement

Message from the High Commissioner of India in Sri Lanka

India and Sri Lanka enjoy a vibrant and growing economic and commercial partnership, with both trade and investment expanding greatly in recent years. Since the operationalization of the India – Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (FTA) in 2000, trade alone has multiplied by as much as 8 times, crossing the milestone of US$ 5 billion in 2011-12. The FTA has thus proved to be a real engine of growth for bilateral commercial interaction. In 2011-12, India’s imports from Sri Lanka went up by almost 45% to cross US$ 720 million, making Sri Lanka the largest source of merchandise from the South Asian region for India. This is a big jump from US$ 45 million imports in 2000-01, when Sri Lanka occupied 4th rank as an import source for India in the region. In fact, Sri Lanka’s exports to India multiplied by over 16 times in this period, while India’s exports to Sri Lanka went up by less than 7 times. There can thus be no doubt that the FTA brought significant benefits to both sides, but more to Sri Lanka. It is relevant to note that over 70% of Sri Lanka’s exports to India are covered under the FTA, while only 30% of India’s exports to Sri Lanka avail of the preferential route of the FTA. Likewise, top Indian companies have displayed high interest in Sri Lanka, investing in the country across sectors such as infrastructure, manufacturing, services, and construction. The cumulative FDI approvals for Indian investments stand about US$ 1 billion since 2003, with investment inflows of US$160 million in 2012. Nearly US$ 2 billion worth of FDI has been committed by Indian companies for the next five years or so. The investment flow is by no means one-sided as Sri Lankan companies too are finding opportunities in the large Indian markets, leveraging FTA provisions. In fact, bilateral economic cooperation today extends across multiple areas of engagement, including trade in goods and services, tourism, infrastructure, education, science and technology, and agriculture. Air connectivity has gone up manifold and there are about 120 flights a week between Colombo and eight destinations in India; almost one-fifth of tourist arrivals in Sri Lanka is from India. The beneficial synergy in bilateral economic relations is best illustrated by the container traffic of Colombo Port, which handles nearly over thirty percent of container transshipment business of India; India-linked cargo, in turn, accounts for over three-fourths of the Port’s total container transshipment volume. This dynamic economic relationship is set for further expansion. During the visit of Hon. Anand Sharma, Minister of Commerce, Industry & Textiles, Government of India, to Sri Lanka in August 2012, both sides decided to take several key steps to further deepen trade and investment relations, including by focusing on increasing Sri Lanka’s export capacity with promotion of manufacturing of products like automobile parts, engineering products and 33

pharmaceuticals with Indian investment and forging linkages across the production and supply chains of the two countries. The two governments have constituted a Joint Task Force to take forward these proposals. We have also set for ourselves an ambitious target of doubling bilateral trade to reach US$ 10 billion in next three years. At the eighth meeting of the India-Sri Lanka Joint Commission held on 22 January 2013 in New Delhi, we agreed to hold intensive consultations towards forging a special economic partnership for comprehensive economic engagement, taking trade, tourism and investment relations to the next level. Despite the evident successes of the FTA, some misperceptions and apprehensions have been expressed, which are largely founded on incomplete information regarding its provisions. This â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Handbook on the India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; aims at facilitating a better understanding of the close economic and commercial partnership that has resulted between the two countries following the entry into force of the FTA. Brought out by the Institute of Policy Studies of Sri Lanka, in collaboration with the High Commission of India, Colombo, and, this publication offers detailed information for the business community on the sectoral provisions of the FTA so that the benefits available under this landmark agreement can be fully availed of. The High Commission of India provides focused services for visiting Indian business delegations and Sri Lankan businessmen, and regularly organizes trade and investment-related activities and events. We hope this publication will prove to be valuable for businesses on both sides in leveraging economic opportunities, propelling the trade relationship towards its immediate target of US$ 10 billion in next three years, and also beyond. I would like to convey our sincere appreciation to the Institute of Policy Studies of Sri Lanka for partnering with us in bringing out this handbook. I would also like to acknowledge the support received from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India.

India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement

Foreword The India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (ISFTA) has been in operation for more than a decade. India has now emerged as the largest and the most balanced trading partner of Sri Lanka, with a high level of exports and imports taking place between the two countries. For instance, in 2012, imports from India stood at 19% of the overall imports of Sri Lanka (largest source of imports to Sri Lanka) while Sri Lanka’s exports to India stood at 5.8% of overall exports of Sri Lanka (3rd largest destination of Sri Lankan exports) with total trade between the two countries amounting to US$ 4.2 billion. The ISFTA has made a substantial contribution in bringing this situation with over 70% of Sri Lankan exports to India moving under the FTA and below 30% of the Indian exports to Sri Lanka moving under the FTA. At a time when Sri Lanka’s traditional markets in the West are showing slow recovery from the global economic crisis, the growing markets in Asia like that of India provide a great opportunity for Sri Lankan exports via the ISFTA. Needless to say, the ISFTA is not free from criticism. Some of the criticism is based on the operational format of the ISFTA. There have been complaints from both sides from time to time on various impediments to making best use of the ISFTA. For instance, a frequent complaint heard from the Sri Lankan side is the existence of barriers to doing business in India, in particular, non-tariff barriers (NTBs) for market access. It is argued that Sri Lanka would have been able to export more had these barriers not existed in India. Some of these barriers have been removed over the years but barriers do remain and should be taken up at the ISFTA discussions for removal. However, the question could be posed as to how Chinese exports to India increased from a mere US$ 1.5 bn in 2000 to over US$ 50 bn by 2011 despite the existence of these same NTBs in the Indian market and without the benefit of an FTA? While this question needs detailed study, it is clear that NTBs alone do not explain Sri Lankan exports not capturing a bigger share of the Indian market. Misconceptions also govern some of the criticisms of the ISFTA. Two misconceptions can be highlighted: (a) given the large size and power of India, most benefits from the ISFTA will be reaped by India; and (b) ISFTA has not been effective in reducing the large trade deficit that Sri Lanka is facing with India. Starting with (a) above, at first sight, an FTA between a large and a small country will appear to bring all benefits for the larger country. But if the asymmetry between the two countries is duly accommodated via Special and Differential Treatment (SDT) for the smaller country, a “winwin” situation can be worked out. This asymmetry was accommodated in the ISFTA at the onset via SDT for Sri Lanka by offering a longer tariff liberalization period, a larger negative list, favourable rules of origin, etc. This facilitated more than 70% of Sri Lankan goods to move to India via the FTA (83% in 2011) compared to less than 30% for India (13% in 2011) as highlighted earlier and the Import-Export ratio between Sri Lanka and India to decline from 5

10.3 to 1 in 2000 to 6.4 to 1 in 2012. Had the FTA not been there, Sri Lankan exports to India would have been less than what was recorded and the trade deficit would have been larger. 10.3 to 1 in 2000 to 6.4 to 1 in 2012. Had the FTA not been there, Sri Lankan exports to India would have been less than what was recorded and the trade deficit would have been larger. In In regard to (b), all that can be said is that when trading in a globalized world, a country like Sri regard to (b), all that can be said is that when trading in a globalized world, a country like Sri Lanka will always have surpluses with major export destination countries in most of the West Lanka will always have surpluses with major export destination countries in most of the West and deficits with major import sourcing countries in the East. It is impossible for any country to and deficits with major import sourcing countries in the East. It is impossible for any country to have surpluses with all trading nations. Thus, the primary objective of an FTA should not be to have surpluses with all trading nations. Thus, the primary objective of an FTA should not be to reduce the trade deficit but to provide the best deal to the consumers and the exporters while reduce the trade deficit but to provide the best deal to the consumers and the exporters while safeguarding the efficient import substitution industrialists. As highlighted above, the Importsafeguarding the efficient import substitution industrialists. As highlighted above, the ImportExport ratio has worked in favour of Sri Lanka due to the ISFTA, which was an outcome of the Export ratio has worked in favour of Sri Lanka due to the ISFTA, which was an outcome of the process of accommodating the asymmetry, but in any case it should be noted that the trade process of accommodating the asymmetry, but in any case it should be noted that the trade deficit with India gets somewhat compensated by large capital flows from India to Sri Lanka in deficit with India gets somewhat compensated by large capital flows from India to Sri Lanka in terms of FDI, aid, etc. Thus, there is little logic to use the trade imbalance alone as a guide to terms of FDI, aid, etc. Thus, there is little logic to use the trade imbalance alone as a guide to assess the progress of an FTA. assess the progress of an FTA.

3. Scope of the ISFTA 3.1 Tariff Concessions The ISFTA covers only trade in goods. It provides either (i) duty free access (zero duty) or (ii) duty preferences for products that are not under the Negative list. While India provides 4227 Sri Lankan products duty free access to India, Sri Lanka provides 2802 Indian products duty free access to its economy (see Table 1).

There were certain modalities applied for Pepper since September 2006, which is as follows: ď&#x201A;ˇ

India enabled import of 2500 mt of Pepper per annum from Sri Lanka through import authorization issued by the Director General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) of India. These authorizations, together with CoO issued by the Government of Sri Lanka, facilitate clearance of import consignments at zero duty for Pepper.

3.2 Rules of Origin 3.2.1 Rules of origin (RoO) are the criteria used to define where a product was made In other words they are laws, regulations and administrative procedures which determine a productâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s country of origin. RoO are in place to ensure that tariff preferences are granted only to imports from the partner country and not to imports from other countries. Therefore, it is only when a product satisfies the relevant RoO specified in the agreement, that it would be eligible for preferential tariff treatment in the importing FTA partner country; a product manufactured

Institute Policy Studies of Sri of Lanka Instituteof of Policy Studies Sri

Lanka

in a partner country does not automatically qualify it for preferences. RoO considers (a) where the goods were produced, and (b) what materials were used in their production.

3.2.2 Products generally fall in to 2 main categories as per RoO: (i)

Goods wholly obtained or produced: Wholly obtained or produced goods are automatically accepted as originating under the FTA. The following products are considered wholly produced or obtained in the territory of the exporting party, as per the ISFTA: (a) Raw or mineral products extracted from its soil, its water or its seabed; (b) Vegetable products harvested there; (c) Animals born and raised there; (d) Products obtained from animals referred to in clause (c) above; (e) Products obtained by hunting or fishing conducted there; (f)

Products of sea fishing and other marine products from the high seas by its vessels;

(g) Products processed and/or made on board its factory ships exclusively from products referred to in clause (f) above; (h) Used articles collected there, fit only for the recovery of raw materials; (i)

Waste and scrap resulting from manufacturing operations conducted there;

(j)

Products extracted from the seabed or below seabed which is situated outside its territorial waters, provided that it has exclusive exploitation rights;

(k) Goods produced there exclusively from the products referred to in clauses (a) to (j) above. (ii)

Goods not wholly obtained or produced: These are goods that are not listed under wholly obtained or produced, and are goods produced that may contain non-originating materials. These products need to comply with the RoO criteria mentioned below.

3.2.3 RoO criteria in the ISFTA requires a combination of Domestic Value Addition (DVA) and Change of Tariff Heading (CTH) To be applied in tandem, so as to adjudicate the origin of goods not â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;wholly obtainedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. -

DVA specifies the minimum percentage of total value addition that should be achieved on the basis of domestic inputs. ISFTA states that the DVA in the exporting country should not be less than 35 per cent of the freight on board (FOB) value of the finished product. However, if raw materials for the product are imported from the other contracting state, and if this is not less than 10 per cent of the FOB value of the product then, a minimum of 25 per cent DVA is allowed. These are referred to as Cumulative Rules of Origin. For

India-Sri LankaLanka FreeFree Trade Agreement India-Sri Trade Agreement

example, if India manufactures a product using raw materials from Sri Lanka, then a DVA of 25 per cent satisfies the RoO requirements. However, value of the raw materials used from Sri Lanka should be at least 10 per cent of the FOB value of the finished product. Additional clauses specify that (i) final manufacturing process should be carried out in the territory of the exporting country, and (ii) products should be directly consigned between the 2 countries without passing through the territory of a 3rd country. -

CTH states the HS codes of the imported raw materials and the finished products should be different at 4-digit level.

3.2.4 Value of the non-originating materials, parts or produce is: (i)

the c.i.f. value at the time of importation of the materials, parts of produce where this can be proven; or

(ii)

the earliest ascertainable price paid for the materials, parts or produce of undetermined origin in the territory of the Contracting Parties where the working or processing takes place.

3.2.4 (a) Notably, both countries have identified operations that are deemed insufficient working or processing Even if a change of heading has taken place, i.e. simple changes such as changes to packing, simple mixing of producer etc. Given below is the list of such insufficient working or processing identified in the ISFTA: 1) Operations to ensure the preservation of products in good condition during transport and storage (ventilation, spreading out, drying, chilling, placing in salt, sulphur dioxide or other aqueous solutions, removal of damaged parts, and like operations); 2) Simple operations consisting of removal of dust, sifting or screening, sorting, classifying, matching (including the making up of sets of articles), washing, painting, cutting up; 3) I. changes of packing and breaking up and assembly of consignments, II. simple slicing, cutting and re-packing or placing in bottles, flasks, bags, boxes,

fixing on cards or boards, etc., and all other simple packing operations. 4)

The affixing of marks, labels or other like distinguishing signs on products or their packaging;

Simple mixing of products, whether or not of different kinds, where one or more components of the mixture do not meet the conditions laid down in these Rules to enable them to be considered as originating products;

Simple assembly of parts of products to constitute a complete product;

A combination of two or more operations specified in (a) to (f);

Slaughter of animals.

3.2.5 The Certificate of Origin (CoO) The CoO certifies that all RoO criteria have been met. Given that all the rules are satisfied, exporters can get the CoO for their products from the relevant agencies in India/Sri Lanka. In Sri Lanka it is issued by the Department of Commerce (DOC) and in India, by the Export Inspection Council. All exporters hoping to get concessions (for both wholly obtained and not wholly obtained goods) have to register with the above agencies in order to enjoy duty benefits.

3.2.5 (a) Process of Registering a Company to Export Under the ISFTA and Acquiring the CoO in Sri Lanka

1. New Exporters under the ISFTA – in Sri Lanka (i)

In order to obtain the CoO in Sri Lanka, Sri Lankan exporters have to first register with the DOC (see Graph 1). Registration and CoO related work is handled by the ‘Bilateral Division’ of the DOC and exporters wishing to export under the ISFTA can meet the officers handling the ISFTA, in this division.

(ii)

DOC officers will check whether the product is eligible for concessions and guide the exporter accordingly.

(iii) If eligible for concessions, a company can register by submitting the necessary documents: a duly filled registration form, company registration certificate and VAT registration certificate. 

Total registration fee (including taxes) - SLR. 5040.00



Time taken to register a company – 24 hours

(iv) In order to issue a CoO for the first time, the following documents have to be produced:

Wholly Obtained Goods: (a) an affidavit

Not Wholly Obtained Goods: (a) Cost statement; (b) Supporting documents of the Cost Statement – Customs Declaration Form (CUSDEC) and invoices of imported

India-Sri Lanka FreeFree Trade Agreement India-Sri Lanka Trade Agreement

raw materials and invoices of local raw materials ; (c) Production Flow Chart; (d) Any other documents deemed necessary by DOC officers to support the cost statement, etc., depending on product/each case. A factory visit may be carried out if considered necessary by the DOC.

2. Regular Exporters under the ISFTA – in Sri Lanka After the registration and the first assessment of the product, exporters need to submit a CoO with each and every shipment of the product. A CoO form set (form+one copy of form) which is available free of charge at the DOC needs to be filled and submitted with the following documents: -

Wholly Obtained Goods: (a) copy of the certified and approved affidavit (approved earlier by the DOC), (b) Commercial Invoice, (c) Parties copy of the export CUSDEC

Not Wholly Obtained Goods: (a) copy of the approved cost statement (approved earlier by the DOC), (b) Commercial Invoice, (c) Parties copy of the export CUSDEC 

Fee charged to issue a CoO (including taxes) –SLR. 448.00



Time Taken to Issue a CoO – within a day (on an average about 2 hours)

It should be noted that an affidavit and a cost structure statement are valid only for 6 months after which they need to be renewed. A new cost structure has to be submitted if the cost structure changes, supported with the relevant documents. Registrations and CoO’s are issued only during weekdays (on every government working day). In Sri Lanka the process (from collection of CoO forms to the collection of the Certificate) still has to be carried out manually.

3.2.5(b) Process of Registering a Company to Export Under the ISFTA and Acquiring the CoO in India Indian exporters need to obtain the ISFTA CoO from the Export Inspection Council of India, Ministry of Commerce & Industry (or Export Inspection Agencies [EIAs] that come under the Export Inspection Council of India). Their website is: www.eicindia.gov.in. All exporters need to be registered with EIAs for this purpose. An exporter has to submit a written application for a CoO; this application form is available in the CoO form set or the contents of this form can be typed out on a letterhead. The first consignment of a product of a particular exporter would be certified only after a physical verification is carried out, to confirm that the origin criterion is met. Continued compliance is assessed periodically at a frequency of 1 in 10 consignments for each product. However, depending on an exporter’s performance in 6 months, authorities can change this frequency, with at least one physical verification carried out once in 6 months. Factory visits may be carried out if deemed necessary. CoO’s can be obtained/received via EIA offices. Online facilities to issue CoOs and exporter registration online are also available on http://www.eicindia.net/public/login.aspx. 

The fee for the issuance of a CoO in India is Indian Rs.350.00 with effect from 1st April 2011.

India-Sri Lanka FreeFree Trade Agreement India-Sri Lanka Trade Agreement

Importers at the time of importation should, (i)

make a claim that the products are the produce or manufacture of the country from which they are imported and such products are eligible for preferential treatment under the Agreement, and

(ii)

produce the evidence specified, the CoO (or the ISFTA certificate)

3.2.5 (c) According to current processes a few practical aspects that should be noted are, -

Whereas in India, the CoO is issued prior to the shipment, the CoO from Sri Lanka is issued only after a shipment has been effected. Due to the proximity of the two countries, the goods may arrive in India prior to the documents.

The CoO issued by Sri Lanka has to be certified by the Sri Lankan High Commission in India once the importer receives the certificate. The importer/agent can get it done within a short time from the High Commission where a verification seal is put on the CoO by the Consular Division, upon the recommendation of the Commercial Division of the High Commission.

3.2.5 (d) For more information on obtaining RoO details and the CoO please visit,  Export Inspection Council of India (or Export Inspection Agencies) http://www.eicindia.gov.in  Department of Commerce, Sri Lanka – http://www.doc.gov.lk/web/induslroulsoforigin.php

3.3 Dispute Settlement Mechanism The ISFTA Agreement states that any disputes arising between commercial entities in the two countries would be referred to the nodal apex chambers for an amicable settlement, and that such references would be settled through mutual consultations by the Chambers as far as possible. According to the agreement, if an amicable settlement is not reached, it will be referred to an Arbitral Tribunal for a decision. If there is any issue related to trading under the ISFTA, the initial contact points will depend on the nature of the issue. However, for many traders the initial contact points would be the respective Departments of Commerce in the two countries, and/or the Commercial Section of the Sri Lankan High Commission in New Delhi or Indian High Commission in Colombo, as the case may be. If the issue is related to the signatures placed in a CoO of a consignment sent from Sri Lanka, the respective custom points in India may seek verification from the DOC in Sri Lanka. If there is any doubt on the RoO criteria of a shipment, the matter may be referred to the Sri Lanka Customs through the Customs nodal point, after which a response will be made in consultation with the DOC in Sri Lanka. There is a Customs nodal point based in Chennai whose 19

Institute of of Policy Studies of Sri of Lanka Institute Policy Studies Sri Lanka

fundamental role is to cooperate with its respective counterpart in Sri Lanka on ISFTA related issues within their purview. The other relevant agencies will have to be consulted depending on the type and nature of the problem i.e. garments quota, then the matter may go through sectoral associations or Chambers. If any problem persists in a continuous manner, then it will be taken up at the Department of Commerce level.

3.4 Documentation Requirements Exports It is possible to identify on average, a common set of documents which consist of about 12 documents, required for each consignment of goods that are exported by the two countries. The following is a list of documents that are needed from point of order to shipment. However, the documentation requirements may change and additional one’s might be required (i.e. certification) depending on the product and the nature of the product that is being exported.          
