IEC (Import Export Code) is a mandatory business identification number required for individuals or companies that want to start import or export activities in India. The code is issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
Any business that plans to import goods into India or export goods and services from India must obtain an IEC registration. Without this code, businesses cannot clear shipments through customs or receive payments from foreign clients.
IEC is a lifetime valid registration and does not require renewal. Once issued, the same IEC number can be used for all import and export transactions of the business.
The IEC registration process is completely online and requires basic business details and documents. Our experts assist you throughout the process to ensure quick approval and error-free application filing.
