What is included

What we do for you.

Goods imported under our own IEC, with Blue Dot Brdg named as the importer on the bill of entry.

Commercial entity in India

We buy the goods at an agreed price and resell them, to your Indian business or to customers.

Duty worked out up front

Tariff classification and duty checked for every product before the first shipment leaves.

Landed cost per unit

Purchase price, duty, freight, and clearance and handling modelled per product, so the India price is set knowing the real cost.

Import payments remitted, and each bill of entry tracked to closure with the bank.

Labels that clear

Questions

What brands ask first.

Do I need an Indian company to sell in India?

No. Blue Dot Brdg can be the importer of record and the commercial entity in India. If you already have an Indian company or distributor, we import and supply it instead.

Who pays the import duty?

As importer of record we pay the duty at clearance. We work out the duty and full landed cost for each product with you before the first shipment, so the India price is set with it in view.

Which products can you import?

Consumer goods across categories. The licences your category needs are checked in the diagnostic, before anything ships.

What happens to my accounts if we part ways?

If your Indian company is the seller, the accounts are in its name and stay yours. If we buy and resell your goods, the seller accounts are ours; on exit we hand over the listing content, the store and your brand assets, once dues are settled.
