Obtain your Import Export Code (IEC) from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) with expert professional assistance. Essential for businesses engaged in importing or exporting goods and services.
The Import Export Code (IEC) is a 10-digit unique identification number issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) under Section 7 of the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act, 1992, read with Rule 12 of the Foreign Trade (Regulation) Rules, 1993 and the applicable provisions of the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) and Handbook of Procedures (HBP). Except where specifically exempted, an IEC is mandatory for any person or entity engaged in the import or export of goods. It is also required for availing various benefits under the Foreign Trade Policy, customs clearance, remittance of foreign currency through authorized banks and registration on several export promotion platforms.
Our professionals provide end-to-end assistance in preparing and filing the IEC application through the DGFT portal, verifying documents, completing Aadhaar/e-sign authentication and obtaining the IEC Certificate. We also guide businesses regarding post-registration compliance, including the mandatory annual IEC updation as prescribed under the Foreign Trade Policy.
