| Dangerous goods | IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air |
Hazardous chemicals generally need prior approval before import, with the Kuwait Environment Public Authority and other agencies involved depending on the substance, in line with GCC controls. APIs and medicinal products are handled by Kuwait Drug and Food Control at the Ministry of Health, which normally requires registration of the product or importer. Chamber-attested certificates of origin are standard, and legalisation may be needed. Dangerous goods are declared under IMDG or IATA rules. There is no India–Kuwait trade agreement, so normal duties apply.
