Questions
Frequently asked
Something else on your mind? Call the office - it is always the same number.
Is IEC mandatory for Service Exports?
IEC is not strictly mandatory for service exports unless the service provider wants to claim benefits under the Foreign Trade Policy (like SEIS scheme). However, banks may ask for it for foreign inward remittances.
Does IEC expire?
No, IEC has lifetime validity. However, you must update your IEC details on the DGFT portal every year between April and June to prevent it from being deactivated.
Can I import for personal use without IEC?
Yes, IEC is not required if the goods are imported for personal use and not connected with trade, manufacture, or agriculture.
