Trade with India is largely duty-free under the India–Bhutan Trade Agreement, and most goods cross the border at Phuentsholing by road. Medicines and APIs need authorisation from the Bhutan Food and Drug Authority (BFDA) before dispatch. Hazardous chemicals are subject to environmental and safety controls overseen by the National Environment Commission. Paperwork is generally simpler than for overseas markets, but a correct invoice, road consignment note, COA and SDS remain essential, and dangerous goods must be packed and labelled for road transport.
