Import Export Code (IEC) Registration is the process of obtaining a unique ten-digit code from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) in India. This code is mandatory for businesses or individuals engaged in import and export activities. It serves as an identification number for the entity and is required for conducting international trade transactions.

The IEC Registration process involves submitting the necessary documents and information to the DGFT through the online portal or designated regional offices. Once approved, the IEC is issued, allowing the entity to engage in cross-border trade legally and facilitating customs clearance for imported and exported goods. It is essential for businesses looking to expand their reach in the global market and engage in international trade operations.
