r/Exports

I export scrap materials from Australia and New Zealand and have strong ties in India. I’m looking to export copper wire scrap to India, but I’ve been told that imports are restricted due to the insulation covering.

This is a bit confusing to me. Most wire scrap has PVC insulation, which is technically different from rubber. So I’m not sure why insulated wire scrap would be broadly restricted.

Can someone clarify the current regulations? Is the restriction specifically on certain types of insulated scrap, or is it a broader policy?

I noticed after several projects that factories are doing a good job of delivering to a new market, but they experience real difficulties after that. If you entered a new market, what were the biggest difficulties for you? Have you ever paid for local assistance (not delivery)? If so, for what exactly?

I'm trying to figure out what's really important in practice, real experience
