Import Duty from India to the US in 2026

Goods from India face the MFN rate plus a forced-labor/security base of 10%, but no Section 301 tariff (which applies only to China). Section 232 applies to covered categories (steel, autos, lumber, semiconductors).

Example rates for India-origin goods:

Product	Total rate from IN
Apparel (cotton shirt, dress)	26.5%
Consumer electronics	10%
Jewelry (gold necklace, ring)	15.5%
General merchandise	13.5%
Steel articles	50%

India is a popular alternative sourcing destination for apparel, jewelry and pharmaceuticals. The absence of Section 301 makes India-origin goods significantly cheaper than China-origin for most categories.
