Overview

In today’s globalized economy, borders are no longer barriers—they’re opportunities. If you plan to import goods into India or export products worldwide, Import Export Code (IEC) Registration is your gateway to international trade.

IEC is a mandatory 10-digit identification number issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT). Without IEC, no importer or exporter can legally clear customs, remit foreign currency, or enjoy export incentives.

At FastTrack FinTax, we make IEC Registration fast, error-free, and fully compliant, so you can focus on growing your global business while we handle the legalities.
