Amendment to FTP 2023: One-time Relaxation for Gems and Jewellery Sector · Notification No. 73/2025-26

What changed

The Directorate General of Foreign Trade provides a one-time extension for the re-import of cut and polished diamonds. This relaxation applies to exporters who face re-import deadlines between March 01, 2026, and May 31, 2026. The authority extends the re-import period by 30 days beyond the original three-month limit. This measure addresses logistical delays caused by the geo-political crisis in West Asia. Exporters must continue to follow the guidelines issued by the Central Board of Customs and Excise for zero-duty re-import facilities.
