Import Export Code is generally important for businesses involved in importing or exporting goods. For export of services or technology, IEC applicability should be reviewed based on the business model, benefits under the Foreign Trade Policy, and applicable exemptions or conditions.
IEC supports cross-border trade readiness. A business involved in international buying, selling, supply chains, manufacturing exports, trading, distribution, or export-related activity should consider IEC requirements before beginning transactions.
