AWAT Logistics, a leading name in international logistics, offers end-to-end FTWZ services in India to help businesses streamline their global operations while maximizing tax and cost benefits.

Whether you're an importer, exporter, or looking to explore third country export, AWAT Logistics delivers flexible FTWZ solutions that support your entire supply chain. Discover how partnering with us can help you harness the full potential of Free Trade Warehousing Zones in India.

What is a Free Trade Warehousing Zone (FTWZ)?

A Free Trade Warehousing Zone (FTWZ) is a special economic zone designed to support international trading and logistics activities. These zones offer world-class infrastructure, tax benefits, and simplified customs procedures. The core advantage? You can import goods without paying customs duty upfront, store them for extended periods, and either re-export or sell them in the domestic market as needed.

FTWZ in India is governed by the Special Economic Zones (SEZ) Act and Rules, ensuring full compliance and seamless operations for global businesses.

Key Advantages of FTWZ Services in India

1. Duty Deferment and Cost Savings

One of the most attractive features of FTWZs is customs duty deferment. You can import goods and store them in the FTWZ without immediately paying duties. Duties are payable only when goods are cleared into the Domestic Tariff Area (DTA). This results in significant working capital savings and flexibility in inventory management.

2. Third Country Export Made Easy

AWAT Logistics specializes in facilitating third country export—where goods are imported from one country and re-exported to another without entering the Indian market. This helps companies avoid double taxation and reduces transit times, making global operations more efficient.

3. Seamless Integration with Duty-Free Shops and Liquor Warehouses

FTWZs also serve as a backbone for duty-free shops and the liquor warehouse industry. Businesses importing high-value items like alcohol or luxury goods can store them in our FTWZ facilities until required. This reduces storage costs and ensures compliance with regulations governing bonded goods.

4. Advanced Infrastructure

At AWAT Logistics, we offer state-of-the-art warehousing infrastructure within India’s leading FTWZ locations. These facilities are equipped with climate-controlled zones, high-security systems, digital inventory tracking, and seamless multimodal transport connectivity.
