Planning to sell your products internationally? Whether you’re an online seller, manufacturer, or trader – the Import Export Code (IEC) is your gateway to global business. Issued by the DGFT (Directorate General of Foreign Trade), the IEC is a mandatory 10-digit code for any import/export activity from India.
At JustGoTax, we simplify the IEC registration process so you can focus on your business while we handle the paperwork. Get expert help, fast turnaround, and complete online support—no office visits needed.
The IEC is a unique code issued by the DGFT, Government of India, required for anyone looking to import or export goods and services. Without it, you cannot clear shipments at customs or receive international payments.
Once issued, the IEC is valid for a lifetime and doesn’t require renewal unless changes are needed.
