RCMC (Registration-cum-Membership Certificate) is proof that an exporter is registered with a relevant Export Promotion Council, Commodity Board or FIEO. Issued under the Foreign Trade Policy 2023, it is mandatory to claim export benefits like RoDTEP, Advance Authorisation or EPCG and to avail council services.
You register with the council covering your main export line. Engineering firms join EEPC India, garment exporters AEPC, agri and processed food APEDA, chemicals CHEMEXCIL, pharma Pharmexcil, and multi-product or service exporters FIEO. Commodity Boards cover spices, tea, coffee, rubber and tobacco.
Yes. A valid RCMC is a precondition to claim scheme benefits under the Foreign Trade Policy 2023, including RoDTEP, RoSCTL, Advance Authorisation and EPCG. Without RCMC the DGFT system will not process authorisations, and duty-credit or remission claims linked to the shipping bill can be denied.
Yes. A valid Importer-Exporter Code (IEC) issued by DGFT is a prerequisite. The RCMC application draws your firm details and main line of business from the IEC record, so the IEC must be active and correctly updated before you file ANF 2C on the DGFT portal.
Apply online through the e-RCMC module on the DGFT common digital platform (dgft.gov.in) using form ANF 2C. Log in with your IEC credentials, select the relevant council, upload the required documents, pay the council fee, and the certificate is issued digitally after verification.
An RCMC is valid for five financial years, from 1st April of the licensing year in which it is issued until 31st March, five years later. You must renew it before expiry through the e-RCMC platform to keep claiming export benefits without interruption.

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.
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.
An RCMC is valid for five financial years, running from 1st April of the licensing year in which it is issued to 31st March of the fifth year. This fixed cycle means the calendar, not the issue date, governs expiry, so an exporter should track the final 31st March carefully and renew through the e-RCMC module before that date to avoid any interruption in benefit claims. Renewal is not the only maintenance obligation. Whenever the exporter adds a new product line, changes its main line of business, alters its constitution, or updates address and contact details, the RCMC must be amended so that it continues to mirror the IEC and the actual shipping bills. A stale RCMC is a common and avoidable cause of blocked RoDTEP transmission and rejected authorisation applications, because DGFT and customs systems test the live certificate against the export declaration. Treating renewal and amendment as routine compliance, rather than a last-minute task, protects the exporter's entire benefit pipeline.
The commercial value of an RCMC lies in the incentives it unlocks. The Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products (RoDTEP) scheme and the Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies (RoSCTL) scheme for apparel and made-ups both refund embedded taxes through duty-credit scrips generated against the shipping bill, and both are conditional on the exporter holding a valid RCMC. The Advance Authorisation scheme, which allows duty-free import of inputs against an export obligation, and the EPCG scheme, which permits concessional import of capital goods, are administered by DGFT and will not be granted without a subsisting RCMC. Beyond duty schemes, councils channel promotional support such as Market Access Initiative reimbursements, trade-fair participation and buyer-seller meets, all reserved for members. For a Chennai exporter weighing the modest council fee against these benefits, the arithmetic is decisive: the RCMC typically pays for itself many times over through a single RoDTEP or RoSCTL cycle, provided the certificate is valid and correctly matched to the products being shipped.

“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.”
