Overview

Why Switzerland 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.

European partners sometimes ask for apostilled licences and registrations as part of supplier due diligence.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Switzerland usually ask for a legalised Import Export Code (IEC) and trade registration documents for supplier or vendor registration, product registration by importers or 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. Switzerland accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
