Strategic Port Proximity
A Free Trade Warehousing Zone (FTWZ) is a designated Special Economic Zone (SEZ) category in India specifically authorized for international trading, warehousing, value-addition, and transshipment. By operating inside an FTWZ with OSJ Global Connect, businesses can hold imported inventory on Indian soil without paying customs duties until the goods are actually cleared into the domestic market (DTA), or re-export them without ever incurring Indian duties or GST.
Zero customs duty and GST payable at the time of entry into the FTWZ. Duties are paid only in installments when goods enter the domestic tariff area (DTA).
Goods imported from abroad can be consolidated, repacked, or value-added inside the zone and re-exported globally without paying any Indian customs duties.
Overseas vendors can hold title to inventory inside the Indian FTWZ and sell directly to Indian buyers in foreign currency without establishing a local subsidiary.
Statutory authorization to conduct packing, repacking, labeling, kitting, light assembly, testing, inspection, and rework inside the facility.
Simplified documentation via SEZ online portal with dedicated on-site customs officers ensuring round-the-clock clearance.
Flexible storage duration compared to standard public bonded warehouses, allowing strategic buffering against global supply volatility.
