US and India Commit to Digital Trade Rules
8.2
The White House said Monday that India committed to removing digital services taxes and to negotiating rules addressing discriminatory practices and barriers to digital trade. The interim framework does not change India’s domestic e‑commerce policy immediately but would cover rules prohibiting customs duties on electronic transmissions. The agreement also includes tariff adjustments and zero‑duty access measures affecting goods worth about $44 billion.
Key Points
- 1Commit India to remove digital services taxes and negotiate rules banning duties on e‑transmissions.
- 2Address US priority to prevent customs duties on software, apps, cloud services and digital media.
- 3Limit India's future policy space for taxing digital flows, affecting tax and regulatory strategies.
Scoring Rationale
