Importer Exporter Code applications for Thiruverkadu Ambattur Road exporters are filed on dgft.gov.in under Section 7 of the FT(D&R) Act 1992 with Aadhaar OTP authentication and ₹500 fee — IEC issued instantly on clean PAN-bank-address validation.
A dedicated DGFT consultant in Thiruverkadu Ambattur Road drafts ANF-2A on the DGFT portal, validates PAN-bank-address consistency, walks the signatory through Aadhaar OTP and follows up on any officer query. Annual update during 1-April to 30-June is monitored to prevent IEC deactivation.
Beyond IEC, FTP benefits demand RCMC from a designated EPC under Para 2.59 of FTP 2023, AD Code registration at the Customs port and ICEGATE enrolment. RoDTEP scrips, Duty Drawback and IGST refund routes are configured at first shipment.
Manufacturer-exporters in Thiruverkadu Ambattur Road access duty-free imports under EPCG (Chapter 5 FTP 2023) and Advance Authorisation (Chapter 4 FTP 2023), or operate under Section 65 Customs Bonded Manufacturing (MOOWR Regulations 2019) with full duty deferral and zero duty on exports.
You need the firm's PAN, proof of establishment or incorporation, address proof of the business premises, a cancelled cheque or bank certificate for the current account, and the applicant's Aadhaar for e-Sign or a Class 3 DSC for authentication.
With Aadhaar e-Sign and complete documents, an IEC is usually issued within one to two working days of a clean DGFT application. Delays arise from PAN-name mismatches, unverified bank details, or an inactive mobile or email on the profile.
The IEC is permanent, but the Foreign Trade Policy 2023 requires electronic confirmation or updation every year during April to June, even when nothing has changed. Missing this deactivates the IEC and blocks customs clearance until it is updated.
GSTIN and IEC serve different purposes. Customs validates the IEC on shipping bills and bills of entry, so an IEC is generally required for goods import or export regardless of GST. Some service transactions are exempt, but incentive claims usually still need an IEC.
No. Only one IEC is allotted per PAN under the Foreign Trade Policy 2023. If a firm inadvertently holds a duplicate, the extra IEC must be surrendered through ANF 2A; DGFT may otherwise suspend the codes until the duplication is resolved.
An AD (Authorised Dealer) Code is issued by your bank and registered at each port on ICEGATE. Without an AD-Code registration linked to your IEC, Customs will not let you file a shipping bill, so exports cannot physically move.

Following DGFT Notification 09/2015-20 dated 12-June-2017, IEC numbers are now identical to the holder's PAN, replacing the earlier system of distinct 10-digit codes. The one-IEC-per-PAN rule means that a single entity (proprietorship, partnership, LLP, company, society, HUF) cannot hold multiple IECs. Where group entities share a common promoter family, each separate legal person obtains its own PAN-linked IEC. This architecture aligns with the post-GST trade-identity rationalisation and integrates IEC with GSTIN, ICEGATE and the AD-bank reporting ecosystems for end-to-end traceability of trade transactions.
IEC, once issued, has no expiry — but DGFT Notification 58/2015-20 dated 12-Feb-2021 introduced a mandatory annual confirmation/update window between April and June each year. Failure to confirm IEC details (even where there is no change) results in automatic deactivation; deactivated IECs are blocked at ICEGATE for shipping-bill filing and at AD banks for remittance processing. Modifications (change of address, directors, authorised signatory, bank account) are filed via the DGFT portal with applicable supporting documentation and Digital Signature Certificate of the authorised signatory.
The Import Export Code (IEC) is a 10-digit identification number issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade under Section 7 of the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act 1992. The FTDR Act 1992 replaced the older Imports and Exports (Control) Act 1947 and established a statutory framework that emphasises trade promotion over trade control. Section 7 of the FTDR Act makes IEC mandatory for any person undertaking the import or export of goods, with limited exemptions notified by the Central Government. The IEC number, once issued, is permanent and is linked to the Permanent Account Number of the holder under the rationalisation introduced by DGFT Notification 09/2015-20 dated 12-June-2017. The Foreign Trade Policy 2023, which replaced FTP 2015-20 with effect from 01-April-2023, continues the FTDR-Act-based architecture and consolidates IEC issuance, modification, and deactivation rules in Chapter 1 and the Handbook of Procedures.
Exporters can maintain Exchange Earners' Foreign Currency (EEFC) accounts with AD banks to hold a portion of their export earnings in foreign currency. Status Holder Exporters under FTP 2023 paragraph 1.27 can retain 100% of their EEFC balance — a key procedural concession. Non-Status-Holder exporters can retain up to a notified percentage. EEFC accounts protect exporters from FX-conversion costs and provide a natural hedge for future import payments.
RBI's FEMA regulations prescribe a realisation period of 9 months from the date of export for goods (longer for specified categories such as construction, project exports, and Status Holders). Failure to realise within the prescribed period exposes the exporter to RBI's Caution List — being caution-listed restricts an exporter from undertaking further exports without prior approval. The AD bank tracks individual shipping bills against realisation and reports defaults to RBI via the EDPMS (Export Data Processing and Monitoring System).
Where realisation of export proceeds is delayed or partially unrealised, the AD bank or RBI (depending on amount) can grant extension of realisation period or permit write-off under specified circumstances (insolvency of buyer, force majeure, documented attempts to recover). Self-write-off limits (typically up to 5% of export proceeds annually) are available to Status Holder Exporters. Documentation of recovery efforts and buyer-default evidence is critical for write-off approval.
FTP 2023 paragraph 1.27 establishes a five-tier Status Holder structure based on cumulative export performance in current and previous three financial years (FOB value in USD): One Star Export House (USD 3 million), Two Star (USD 15 million), Three Star (USD 50 million), Four Star (USD 200 million), Five Star (USD 800 million). Status recognition is conferred via Status Holder Certificate issued on application in ANF-3C through the DGFT portal. The certificate is valid for 5 years.
Status Holders enjoy procedural concessions including: self-declaration of country of origin on Certificate of Origin (subject to FTA-specific rules); preferential treatment in customs clearance (Authorised Economic Operator linkage); exemption from compulsory negotiation of documents through banks for specified categories; 100% EEFC retention (Three Star and above); two-year warehousing period without renewal; reduced bank guarantee requirements for FTP scheme authorizations; faster issuance of various DGFT authorizations.
Certain categories receive double weightage for Status Holder qualification under FTP 2023 paragraph 1.27(c): exports by MSME units, manufacturer exporters, units in North-Eastern States, exports under Towns of Export Excellence (TEE), and exports by units in Agri Export Zones. Double weightage means that USD 1 of qualifying exports counts as USD 2 for threshold computation — substantially accelerating Star qualification for MSMEs and notified categories. Service exports also have a parallel Status Holder framework with USD-denominated thresholds.
The Generalised System of Preferences (GSP), under which the United States extended preferential tariff treatment to specified Indian exports, was suspended by the US with effect from 05-June-2019. Subsequent attempts at reinstatement have not been successful as of 2026. Indian exporters who previously relied on US-GSP have rerouted to: bilateral FTA-partner markets (UAE, Australia post-CEPA/ECTA); EU GSP (which India still accesses); and aggressive market diversification. The GSP experience underscores the volatility of unilateral preference schemes and the strategic value of binding bilateral FTAs.
India's bilateral and regional FTA network as of 2026 includes operational agreements with ASEAN, Japan (CEPA), South Korea (CEPA), Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, Singapore, Mauritius (CECPA), UAE (CEPA 2022), Australia (ECTA 2022), EFTA (TEPA 2024), and several preferential trading arrangements. Negotiations with the UK, EU, Canada, and Oman are at various stages. Each FTA notifies tariff concessions (Schedule of Specific Commitments) and a specific Rules of Origin (RoO) chapter that determines whether a product qualifies as originating in India for tariff concession in the partner country.
Certificate of Origin (CoO) under FTAs is the documentary basis for claiming preferential tariff in the partner country. CoOs are issued by designated agencies (Export Inspection Council, DGFT regional offices, EEPC India, FIEO, chambers of commerce, depending on the FTA). DGFT's e-CoO platform (coo.dgft.gov.in) issues digitally signed certificates accepted by FTA-partner customs authorities. Each FTA has specific Product Specific Rules (PSR) — Regional Value Content thresholds, Change in Tariff Heading, or specific manufacturing-process requirements.
