Import Export Code (IEC) doesn't have to be a headache. On TaxFetch, a verified Chartered Accountant (e-CA) and tax expert get it done for you, end-to-end — fast, hassle-free and entirely online. You share your details once in a secure vault, and your expert handles the rest while you track every step from your own client dashboard.
Import Export Code, fully done for you
An Import Export Code (IEC) issued by the DGFT is mandatory for any business that imports into or exports out of India — and for receiving certain foreign payments. The application needs accurate PAN, bank and address details on the DGFT portal. On TaxFetch a verified Chartered Accountant prepares and files it for you so your IEC is issued without errors.
Share your PAN, bank and business proofs in your secure vault and your e-CA completes the DGFT application on your behalf, then explains how to use your IEC for customs, banking and export incentives.
