Better Cash FlowFlexible OperationsSupports Global Competitiveness
What Is the MOOWR Scheme?
MOOWR allows an entity to import machinery, raw materials and components into a bonded warehouse with no fixed export obligation. All upfront customs duties are deferred, which protects your cash flow. You only pay the deferred duty if your final products are sold in the domestic market. If you export the resultant goods, the deferred duty is completely cancelled and waived off.
If you exportDeferred duty is waived off
Nothing is paid on the imported inputs used in exported goods.
If you sell in IndiaPay the deferred duty at clearance
Duty is paid when goods leave the warehouse, not on the day they arrive.
Who may need MOOWR consultancy?
Built for Manufacturers Who Want Flexibility
Unsure how much you'll export
You want duty deferment but can't commit to a fixed export volume in advance.
No fixed export obligation
You'd rather avoid a fixed EO like those under EPCG and Advance Authorisation, and are ready to pay deferred duty on goods cleared domestically.
Long manufacturing cycles
Deferring duty until goods leave the warehouse, rather than paying it upfront at import, frees working capital while production runs.

Choosing a scheme
MOOWR or EPCG: Which Fits Your Business?
Both help you import without paying duty upfront. The difference is what you commit to in return.
| MOOWR | EPCG | |
|---|---|---|
| What you can bring in | Machinery, raw materials and components | Capital goods |
| Export obligation | None fixed | 6× the duty saved, within 6 years |
| When duty is paid | Deferred; paid only on domestic clearance, waived off if exported | Zero duty at import, in return for meeting the export obligation |
| Best for | Uncertain export volumes, long manufacturing cycles, mixed domestic and export sales | Businesses confident of meeting a fixed export commitment |

How every case starts
A Different Kind of Journey for Each Business
Every MOOWR case is different because every business is different. It depends on what you import, how you turn raw material into a finished product, and where that product finally goes. So our teams begin by looking at your setup through three questions.
- Question 1
What is being imported?
Machinery, raw materials, components — and in what quantities.
- Question 2
How does it become a finished product?
The manufacturing or other operations carried out inside the warehouse.
- Question 3
Where does the product go?
Sold in India, exported, or both — which decides when and how much duty is to be paid.
We help with the full MOOWR journey
Not just the application — we stay with you through every stage after it.
