FAQs

Common questions for Import Export Code Registration in District of Columbia.

Search FAQs
7 results.
Do service exporters need an IEC?
Not to export services as such, but it's needed to claim benefits under the Foreign Trade Policy and is often requested by banks.
Does an IEC expire?
It has no fixed expiry, but it must be updated on the DGFT portal every year between April and June — even if nothing has changed. If the update is missed, the IEC is deactivated until it is updated.
Can an individual or proprietor get an IEC?
Yes. The IEC is issued against a PAN, so individuals, proprietors, firms, LLPs and companies can all apply — one IEC per PAN.
Do I need an IEC to import goods for personal use?
No. An IEC is needed for commercial imports and exports, not for goods imported for personal use.
Is GST registration a substitute for an IEC?
No. GST registration and the IEC are separate. Customs and banks ask for the IEC on shipping and payment documents.
What is the time difference between District of Columbia and India?
Most of District of Columbia is on Eastern time, so it runs behind India by 9.5 hours in summer and 10.5 hours in winter. We work mostly over WhatsApp and email, so you don't need to match Indian office hours.
Can I get Import Export Code Registration done while living in District of Columbia?
Yes. This is India-side work, so it is done online and you don't need to travel. If a document must be attested abroad, we tell you upfront whether a notary, a state apostille or an Indian consulate is needed.
