New South Wales-India trade mission

Overview

A high-level trade mission from New South Wales (NSW), led by Premier Chris Minns and Treasurer Daniel Mookhey, traveled to India to strengthen economic, technological, and cultural ties. The mission aimed to increase annual bilateral trade beyond USD 5 billion, focusing on sectors such as critical minerals, high technology, infrastructure, and clean energy.

During the visit to New Delhi and Mumbai, officials met with Indian Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal and various state leaders, including the Chief Ministers of Gujarat and Maharashtra. Key outcomes included the renewal of a sister-state partnership between NSW and Maharashtra to foster cooperation in education and technology. In the creative sector, a three-film production deal was announced to boost the Australian screen industry.

Additionally, Premier Minns addressed challenges in the tourism sector, noting that recent regulatory changes regarding Indian tourist visa processing have created barriers to increasing direct flights to Sydney and the new Western Sydney airport. He indicated intentions to urge the Australian Prime Minister to address these visa issues.
