You typically need a valid IEC, PAN, GST registration, the ANF 2C application, a self-certified export data declaration, and proof of the main export line such as invoices. Manufacturer exporters may add an industrial licence or MSME/Udyam certificate. Requirements vary slightly by council.
FIEO (Federation of Indian Export Organisations) issues RCMC to multi-product exporters, service exporters, and those whose product has no dedicated council. Product-specific bodies like EEPC, AEPC or APEDA cover a defined commodity range. You choose the council matching your principal export line of business.
Yes. Service exporters, such as IT, software, consulting and tourism providers, can obtain RCMC from the Services Export Promotion Council (SEPC) or FIEO. RCMC lets them access promotional support and, where notified, claim eligible service-export benefits under the Foreign Trade Policy.
You can still export physically, but you forfeit scheme benefits. DGFT will not issue Advance Authorisation or EPCG licences, RoDTEP and RoSCTL claims tied to the shipping bill can be blocked, and you cannot access council-run promotional schemes, market access support or trade-fair subsidies.
Not necessarily. Your primary RCMC is with the council for your main line of business. You can also seek registration with additional councils for other product lines, or list them as secondary products. Multi-product exporters often take FIEO membership to cover diverse goods.
The government platform charges no statutory fee, but each council levies its own membership or subscription charge, usually a few thousand rupees a year depending on turnover and membership category. Professional assistance for document preparation and filing in {{area_name}} is charged separately by consultants.

Reading this guide locally — Across Vasanth Nagar Virugambakkam, in the residential colony micro-market of Vasanth Nagar Virugambakkam.
The Registration-cum-Membership Certificate, or RCMC, is the document that formally links an Indian exporter to an Export Promotion Council, Commodity Board or the Federation of Indian Export Organisations. Issued under Chapter 2 of the Foreign Trade Policy 2023 and detailed in the Handbook of Procedures, it certifies that the exporter is registered with the authority competent for its main line of business. The RCMC is not a licence to export goods; a valid Importer-Exporter Code already permits that. Instead, it is the key that unlocks the incentive architecture of the Foreign Trade Policy. Without a subsisting RCMC, an exporter cannot be granted an Advance Authorisation or EPCG licence, and duty-remission benefits such as RoDTEP and RoSCTL that flow through the shipping bill can be denied. For a Chennai exporter, choosing the correct council at the outset, and naming the right main line of business, is therefore a strategic decision that shapes every benefit claim for the next five years.
Several recurring errors turn a routine registration into a costly problem. The most frequent is registering with the wrong council, for example an apparel exporter taking a cotton-textile RCMC and then finding RoSCTL claims rejected. The second is a narrow or outdated main line of business, where the RCMC no longer covers newly added products and authorisation applications fail validation. The third is letting the five-year certificate lapse, which silently blocks RoDTEP transmission until renewal, with no facility to back-claim benefits for the intervening exports. A fourth, more serious, error is misdeclaring the line of business to fit a particular council; misrepresentation to obtain RCMC or scheme benefits can attract penalty under Section 11 of the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act, 1992, along with recovery of benefits and, in serious cases, IEC action. Avoiding these pitfalls is straightforward: map your export HS codes to the correct council before filing, keep the RCMC product scope aligned with your IEC and shipping bills, diarise the expiry date, and amend the certificate promptly whenever your export profile changes.
India has more than thirty recognised registering authorities, and picking the correct one is the single most consequential step in RCMC registration. The rule is simple in principle: you register with the council whose mandate covers your principal export commodity. Engineering exporters go to EEPC India, garment and made-up exporters to AEPC, cotton textile exporters to Texprocil, chemical exporters to CHEMEXCIL, and pharmaceutical exporters to Pharmexcil. Agricultural and processed-food exporters register with APEDA, marine exporters with MPEDA, and spice, tea, coffee, rubber and tobacco exporters with their respective Commodity Boards. Multi-product exporters, service exporters, and those whose goods fall under no dedicated council take membership of FIEO. The stakes are practical: DGFT validates authorisations and scheme claims against the council named in your RCMC, so a mismatch between your shipping-bill products and your council mandate produces queries and delays. Where you genuinely export across categories, hold a primary RCMC with your core council and add secondary registrations rather than forcing everything under one body.
RCMC applications are now fully digital. The DGFT common digital platform at dgft.gov.in hosts an e-RCMC module through which issuance, amendment and renewal are handled for all registering authorities in one place. The exporter logs in using its IEC credentials, selects the relevant council, and completes application form ANF 2C. The form draws firm particulars from the IEC record, so the IEC must be active and its details, including branch addresses and the nature of the concern, must be current. Supporting documents typically include the IEC, PAN, GST registration, a self-certified declaration of the main line of business, and evidence of exports where applicable; manufacturer exporters may add an industrial or MSME registration. The council fee is paid online, after which the chosen authority verifies the application and issues the certificate digitally. Because the platform is common across authorities, an exporter can also apply to more than one council for different product lines through the same login, which simplifies multi-council registration for diversified Chennai exporters.

“Run an auto-component unit at Sriperumbudur exporting forged parts. FilingPro mapped my products to EEPC India under Appendix 2T, filed e-RCMC on the DGFT Common Digital Platform, and configured RoDTEP claim flag on ICEGATE. First quarter alone I received ₹4.8 lakh of RoDTEP scrip — money I would have left on the table.”
“Tirupur knitwear exporter. Was on RoDTEP but FilingPro showed me RoSCTL on Chapters 61-63 was higher. Switched my AEPC RCMC to active claim and elected RoSCTL on shipping bills. Net rebate jumped 1.4 percentage points on FOB. Real money on a ₹6 crore annual export book.”
“Marine exporter from Tuticorin. MPEDA RCMC was lapsed for 7 months — RoDTEP scrips were getting blocked. FilingPro renewed the RCMC, refiled the affected shipping bills under Customs amendment route and recovered ₹3.1 lakh of held-up scrip. Annual IEC update is now on autopilot.”
“Started exporting cashew kernels to Middle East from Cuddalore. FilingPro registered me with CEPCI (Cashew Export Promotion Council), got me FIEO general RCMC as well for cross-recognition, and set up Advance Authorisation for duty-free RCN imports. Saved 12% on landed cost of raw nuts.”
“Pump manufacturer in Coimbatore. Wanted to import a CNC machining centre under EPCG. FilingPro filed EEPC RCMC, then EPCG Authorisation on dgft.gov.in for ₹1.2 crore duty saving against 6× export obligation in 6 years. Coordinated bond and bank guarantee at Tuticorin Customs. Capital cost slashed.”
“Multi-product exporter — handicrafts + leather + spices. Was confused between EPCH, CLE and Spices Board. FilingPro structured FIEO general RCMC + EPCH for handicrafts and ran the leather and spices through FIEO. Status Holder One Star application is in motion now that turnover crossed USD 3 mn. Clear roadmap.”
