Know what comes next.
An IEC does not by itself replace product-specific import/export policy, customs, GST or sectoral licences. Before the first transaction, the nature and classification of the goods should be checked for any additional restrictions or approvals.
Frequently Asked QuestionsUseful answers before
Useful answers before
you begin.
Is IEC required for every cross-border transaction?
Requirements depend on the type of activity and exemptions in the current foreign trade framework. We review the intended transaction before filing.
Is IEC the same as GST registration?
No. IEC and GST are separate systems and may both be relevant depending on the business.
Can you update an existing IEC?
Yes. We can help review and update IEC details within the scope supported by the DGFT portal.
Does IEC guarantee that a product can be imported or exported?
No. Product-level restrictions, licences and policy conditions are separate and should be checked for the actual goods.
