Common questions about import-export compliance services in India answered by our experts.
For IEC registration, you need: PAN card, address proof (electricity bill/rent agreement), bank certificate or cancelled cheque, and DSC (Class 2 or 3). The application is filed on the DGFT portal (https://dgft.gov.in) with Form ANF 2A. Processing typically takes 2-5 working days after document verification.
AD Code (Authorized Dealer Code) is your bank's unique code registered at a specific customs port for handling import/export transactions. IFSC registration maps your bank branch's IFSC code to the customs port for electronic fund transfers. Both are mandatory for smooth customs clearance and duty drawback claims.
Log in to the RBI's EDPMS portal through your authorized bank. The system shows pending export realization amounts, overdue bills, and compliance status. Alternatively, check your DGFT service history for eBRC matching status. Our team can help reconcile discrepancies.
The EPC depends on your product category. For example: APEDA for agricultural products, EPCG for engineering goods, FIEO for general exports, CHEMEXCIL for chemicals, or PHARMEXCIL for pharmaceuticals. We help identify the correct council based on your ITC-HS code.
RCMC is mandatory if you want to avail export incentives, duty drawback, or participate in government trade fairs. It's issued by the relevant Export Promotion Council based on your product. Registration is valid for 5 years and provides access to international trade fairs, buyer-seller meets, and subsidy schemes.
RoDTEP (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) is a scheme launched by DGFT in 2021 to refund embedded taxes and duties on exports. It replaces the earlier MEIS scheme. Exporters need to declare RoDTEP claims in shipping bills and file quarterly claims on the DGFT portal.
LUT (Letter of Undertaking) allows exporters to ship goods without paying IGST upfront. Filed on the GST portal (Form GST RFD-11), it's valid until cancelled. This prevents working capital blockage - without LUT, you'd need to pay IGST on exports and claim refund later, which can take months.
Common reasons include: missing or incorrect AD Code registration, incomplete shipping bill data, HS code misclassification, non-alignment of Invoice/PL values, missing or expired RCMC, incomplete IEC details, and FSSAI/other product-specific licenses. Proper pre-shipment compliance prevents 90% of holds.
Class 3 DSC is valid for 1-3 years depending on the certifying authority (eMudhra, nCode, etc.). You'll receive expiry alerts from the authority. For continuous ICEGATE/DGFT operations, renew 30 days before expiry to avoid disruption in filing capabilities.
If export realization is not completed within 9 months, your bank will report to RBI, which may result in: ECB (Export Credit Balance) restrictions, ineligibility for future export incentives, and potential investigation by DGFT. Extensions can be requested from RBI through your bank with valid reasons.
