In India, the Import-Export Code (IEC) registration process is governed by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry. IEC is a 10-digit code that is required by businesses for any import or export transactions.

Here are the steps to register for an IEC code in India:

1. Create an account on the DGFT website (https://dgft.gov.in/).
2. Fill out the IEC application form (Aayaat Niryaat Form ANF 2A) online.
3. Upload the required documents, including PAN card, GST registration certificate, bank account details, and a cancelled cheque or bank certificate as proof of bank account.
4. Pay the application fee of Rs. 500 through online payment modes.
5. Submit the application form online.

After submission of the application, the DGFT will review the application and documents. Once the application is approved, the IEC code will be generated and sent to the applicant via email.

The process of IEC registration in India typically takes 1-2 weeks. It’s important to note that the IEC code does not have an expiry date and is valid for the lifetime of the business.
