What Is IEC & Who Needs It?

Import Export Code (IEC) is a unique identification issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) for businesses undertaking import or export activities.

For most businesses engaged in importing or exporting goods, IEC is required unless an applicable exemption applies. DGFT’s current guidance confirms this requirement and notes that IEC is based on the entity’s PAN.
