    New Zealand's set to unlock major export opportunities in India under a new Free Trade Agreement

    New Zealand's set to unlock major export opportunities in India under a new Free Trade Agreement


    It cuts or removes tariffs on 95-percent of our exports and gives duty free access for key products - including a large kiwifruit quota.

    There's also a 50-percent tariff cut for a big apple quota, and manuka honey tariffs will fall from 66-percent to 16.5-percent over five years.

    Trade Minister Todd McClay says this delivers world first access for New Zealand exporters.

    He says we're the first country to secure access for apples and honey under an FTA - and have secured the best access for kiwifruit into India of any country.
