Import & Export
Exporting Cookware to the UK: Post-Brexit Rules & Playbook
Post-Brexit Britain runs its own import regime. Here is what cookware exporters must know.
UKCA & standards
Cookware needs UKCA marking where applicable; food-contact materials follow UK regulations (retained EU law, evolving independently). Verify current requirements - divergence from EU is ongoing.
Duties
Check the UK Global Tariff for your HS code. The UK-India trade relationship is deepening - watch for preferential developments.
Logistics
Nhava Sheva → Felixstowe/London Gateway, ~25-30 days. UK buyers often prefer DDP quotes - handle freight + clearance for them.
Channels
Kitchenware distributors, Amazon UK sellers, department stores and the strong South Asian diaspora retail channel (ideal for kadhai/tope shapes).
