To start exporting, you need an IEC (Importer Exporter Code) from DGFT, a GST registration, and a current account in a bank authorised for forex. Once these are in place, find buyers, raise a commercial invoice, and coordinate with a freight forwarder or CHA for customs clearance.

An HS (Harmonised System) code is a 6–8 digit number used worldwide to classify traded goods. It determines the export duty, GST rate, eligibility for schemes like RoDTEP, and import duty in the buyer's country. Use the HS Code Finder to get the correct code for your product.

Most goods can be exported freely without a specific licence. You need an IEC (Importer Exporter Code) from DGFT, which is a one-time registration. Some restricted or controlled items (chemicals, dual-use technology, certain food products) require additional licences from DGFT or the relevant ministry before shipment.
