Online import export code

What is import export code?

Import Export Code (IEC) is a 10 digit identification number issued by DGFT (Director General of Foreign Trade) which is mandatory for import-export of goods. In simple terms, the IEC code is required by exporters and importers to operate import/export business. The nature of the firm obtaining an IEC may be any of the follows- “Proprietorship, Partnership, LLP, Limited Company, Trust, HUF and Society.” After introduction of GST, IEC number is the same as the PAN of the firm. The IEC would be separately issued as per the PAN.

It should be noted that IEC code/license is not required in following cases:

  1. Import and export by central Government or agencies or undertakings for defence purpose or other specified lists under Foreign Trade (exemption from the application of Rules in certain cases) Order, 1993.
  2. Import or Export of Goods for personal use.
