The U.S.-India Commercial Dialogue is part of the broader Economic Dialogue between the two countries, and was originally initiated in 2000 by President Clinton and Prime Minister Vajpayee. Under the Commercial Dialogue, public and private sector representatives share basic information that affects trade and companies’ capability to conduct business in each market.

In recent years, the Commercial Dialogue has facilitated a number of sessions on standards-related issues, including basic information on the standards systems in the U.S. and India, and more recently, sector-specific discussions. These sessions are carried out regularly via digital videoconference (DVC), and the topics are decided on an as-needed basis.

Opportunities are available for U.S. stakeholders to propose topics for or to participate in future sessions. For more information, please contact the U.S. Department of Commerce International Trade Administration:
