APEDA which can be done through internet also. For this, exporter has to fill the
application form and submit a copy of PAN No. IEC No., Bankers Certificate as common

required. For example a partnership firm must submit a self attested copy of valid
partnership deed, a private Ltd. must submit self attested copy of memorandum of articles
and association. Similarly a society or association must submit the memorandum of articles
and association.
4. An exporter can get registered as Merchant Exporter or Manufacturer
Exporter.

submit a valid certificate of registration with District Industries Centre.
6. A one time registration fees of Rs. 1000/- has also got to be paid.
Fee is common for any type of exporter i.e. Merchant Exporter or Manufacturer Exporter.
7. The fee of Rs. 1000/- can be paid either through credit card ( Master

in consonance with validity of DIC Registration. Exporters will, therefore, have to
revalidate their DIC Registration and apply to APEDA for revalidation of RCMC.

monthly returns in the proforma provided in the covering letter while forwarding RCMC to
the exporter by APEDA. The return has to be regularly filed even if there is nil export.
Non submission of returns or nil returns for 12 consecutive months would lead to
de-registration.
