IEC & AD Code Registration in India

Planning to start an Import-Export business in India? The first step is to obtain your IEC (Importer Exporter Code) and AD (Authorized Dealer) Code – both are essential to legally ship goods across borders.

At Money Finkart, we help individuals, startups, MSMEs, and established businesses register their IEC and AD codes quickly, affordably, and 100% online.

What is IEC (Importer Exporter Code)?

IEC is a 10-digit code issued by the Director General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) to any person or business intending to start import/export activities in India.

Without IEC, you cannot:

Import goods into India
Export goods or services abroad
Receive payments from foreign clients

✅ Once issued, the IEC is valid for a lifetime — no renewal required.

What is AD Code?

AD Code (Authorized Dealer Code) is a 14-digit code issued by your bank (authorized dealer) and registered with the ICEGATE portal (Customs Department). It links your export business with customs authorities to enable smooth clearance of goods.

AD Code is required for:

Creating shipping bills
Clearing goods at customs
Receiving export benefits (Drawback, MEIS, RoDTEP, etc.)
