China & India Customs & Trade 2011: Common issues, Practical guidance

Practical guidance and real world solutions to common customs and trade issues delivered by in-country specialists from China and India.

Despite a global recession, the economies of India and China continue to experience rapid growth. Whilst this has been in part supported by manufacturing and export activity, there has also been a substantial increase in the volume of imports to meet growing consumer demand. China and India both have a well developed system and infrastructure for the facilitation of import and export activity, however we continue to see companies facing significant challenges in ensuring their products cross international borders in a compliant, timely and cost-efficient manner.

PwC Worldtrade Management Services has invited in-country specialists from China and India to share their expertise on import/export current practices, common challenges, and strategies to mitigate risk and realise cost savings, and to participate in a unique panel discussion on Customs Audits and Dispute Resolutions.
