Why Brazil asks for a legalised Import Export Code (IEC) and trade registration documents
The Import Export Code (IEC), often called the import export licence, is the basic registration every Indian exporter needs. Overseas buyers and regulators ask for it, along with the RCMC and GST certificate, when they register you as a supplier. The Import Export Code is issued online by the DGFT; related trade registrations include the RCMC from export promotion councils.
Buyers and agencies in the Americas may request apostilled licences when registering Indian suppliers.
Companies dealing with Brazil are most often asked for a legalised Import Export Code (IEC) and trade registration documents during supplier or vendor registration, as well as for product registration by importers and government tenders.
The Import Export Code (IEC) and trade registration documents issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Brazil accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
