IEC Registration in Uttarakhand is the process of obtaining a 10-digit Import Export code (IEC) issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT). This code is mandatory for any individual or business in Uttarakhand involved in the import or export of goods and services across international borders.

Import Export Code Validity and Renewal in Uttarakhand

Unlike other government licenses, The Import Export Code was not required to be renewed and was valid for a lifetime. However, after the amendments in the Import Export code related provisions under chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of Foreign Trade Policy on 12th February 2021, the IEC code has now to be renewed every year

This amendment made the renewal of Import Export Code details mandatory for every IEC and e-EIC holder. Even if there are no updates in IEC, the same has to be confirmed online on the DGFT portal. Failing to do so may result in the deactivation of your Import Export code.
