Everything You Need to Know
30+ practical answers about IEC, GST, custom duty, shipping, suppliers and more.
IEC (Import Export Code) is a 10-digit code issued by DGFT. It is mandatory for any commercial import or export from India. We register it for you in 3–5 working days.
We route payments through your bank's authorized forex channel, with proper LUT/Form A2 documentation, ensuring full RBI/FEMA compliance and zero risk of fraud.
Yes, IGST is charged on imports at the customs stage and is creditable as ITC against your output GST. We handle all GST documentation and reconciliation.
MOQ depends on the product category — usually 50–500 units for electronics, 100+ for textiles. We negotiate the lowest possible MOQ with each supplier.
We run a 7-point check: business license, factory audit, export history, bank verification, sample testing, Alibaba/Made-in-China reputation, and on-ground visit when needed.
From order to doorstep typically 30–55 days by sea, or 7–12 days by air, depending on production lead time and shipping route.
Custom duty depends on HS code and product. We pre-calculate landed cost so you know the exact margin before placing the order.
Yes. We arrange visa, hotel, translator, factory meetings, and travel itinerary across Canton Fair, Yiwu Market, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Shanghai.
Authorised Dealer (AD) Code is issued by your bank and linked to your IEC at customs. Without it, customs will not clear your shipment. We register it for free with your bank.
Yes. From the Chinese factory to your warehouse/shop anywhere in India — sea/air freight, customs, GST, local transport — fully covered.
We conduct pre-shipment inspection at the factory: random sampling, AQL standards, functional testing, packaging check, and a detailed report before final payment.
Yes. We can ship LCL (less than container load) starting from 50–100 kg or 0.5 CBM, ideal for first-time importers.
Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, GST registration, IEC, AD code letter, and product-specific licenses if required. We prepare all of it.
The first consultation call is completely free. We assess your business, product, and budget before suggesting next steps.
Freight forwarders coordinate shipping, customs, and delivery between countries. Yes — every importer needs one. We have pre-negotiated rates with top forwarders.
We provide a fully landed cost sheet upfront: product + freight + customs + GST + local delivery — so there are no surprises.
Commercial imports require IEC + GST. Individuals can import limited personal-use goods, but for any business import, registration is mandatory.
Yes. With 1000+ verified suppliers across 30+ industries, we match your spec, MOQ, and target price to the right manufacturer.
Canton Fair is the world's largest trade fair, held twice a year in Guangzhou. Highly recommended once your import business is established — we plan the full trip.
Our China-side team negotiates in Mandarin, leverages volume across our 500+ clients, and benchmarks against alternative factories. Typical savings: 8–25%.
Our pre-shipment inspection minimises this. If it still happens, we coordinate replacement, refund, or insurance claim with the supplier on your behalf.
Yes, through our partner warehouses in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Agra. Useful if you sell online or need staggered dispatch.
EXW = ex-works (you collect from factory). FOB = free on board (supplier delivers to China port). CIF = cost+insurance+freight (supplier delivers to your Indian port). We help you choose the right Incoterm.
Yes. We handle FBA-ready imports — labeling, packaging, and direct dispatch to Amazon/Flipkart warehouses.
Yes — customs clearance requires a licensed CHA (Custom House Agent). We provide CHA services as part of our end-to-end package.
Forex rate is decided at the time of TT/wire transfer based on RBI reference rate + bank margin. We help time payments for better rates.
Absolutely. We serve clients across India — Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Kolkata, Indore and more.
