Import Export Code Registration

The Import Export (IE) Code, a 10-digit alphanumeric identifier, is mandated for individuals engaged in the import or export of goods and services to or from India. It is issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), under the Ministry of Commerce and Industries, Government of India. Without an IE Code, importers cannot proceed with imports nor can exporters benefit from various favourable schemes offered by the DGFT, export promotion councils, and customs authorities.

An IE Code is essential in the following scenarios:
1. Clearing shipments through customs.
2. Remitting money abroad by importers.
3. Sending shipments by exporters.
4. Receiving export proceeds in the exporter's bank account.

However, IE Code is not mandatory for:
1. Traders registered under the Goods and Services Tax (GST).
2. Import or export of goods for personal use.
3. Departments and ministries of the Government of India.
4. Designated charitable institutions as notified.

Compliance with IE Code requirements ensure lawful import-export activities and facilitates participation in relevant governmental and promotional frameworks.
