Brazil 16:
According to paragraph 154 (page 83) of the Report by the Secretariat, "EOUs are similar to EPZs but may be located anywhere in the country. Initially, EOUs were concentrated mainly in manufacturing (e.g. textiles, food processing, and electronics) but currently agri businesses and firms supplying services also operate under the EOU Scheme." Paragraph 158 (page 85) informs that "In 2009/10, India had 2,553 EOUs (…)".
Could India provide further information regarding the differences between an EOU and an EPZ?
What are the requirements for the set up of an EOU?
Reply: The EOU Scheme, introduced in 1981, is complementary to the erstwhile EPZ scheme. It adopts the same production regime but offers a wider option in location with reference to factors like source of raw materials, port of exports, hinterland facilities, and availability of technological skills, existence of industrial base, and the need for a larger area of land for the project. Under this scheme, the units undertaking to export their entire production of goods, except permissible sales in domestic tariff area (DTA) as per Exim Policy/Foreign Trade Policy, are allowed to be set up. These units may be engaged in the manufacture, services, development of software, agriculture including agro processing, aquaculture, animal husbandry, bio technology, floriculture, horticulture, pisiculture, viticulture, poultry and sericulture. Trading units are not permitted under the EOU Scheme.
