Import and Export Code Registration

What is Import and Export Code Registration

Import and Export Code (IEC) registration is mandatory for businesses involved in the import or export of goods and services in India. Issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), the IEC is a 10-digit code required for customs clearance, shipment of goods, and receiving payments from foreign clients. This registration not only facilitates international trade but also ensures compliance with the Foreign Trade Policy of India.

Are you planning to expand your business internationally? An IEC registration is your gateway to global markets, allowing you to import or export products without any restrictions.
