AD code registration

The Authorised Dealer code is issued by your bank and registered with customs at each port you export from. Without it customs will not process shipping bills, and export proceeds and IGST refunds cannot be routed to your account.

Issued by: Your bank · Customs
Law: Customs Act 1962 and the export procedures under the Foreign Trade Policy
Where to apply: icegate.gov.in

How AD code registration works

The usual picture. Procedures, fees and forms differ by state and authority — always check the current rules before you apply.

Who needs it

Every exporter of goods, for each port of export
Exporters claiming IGST refunds or drawback

Documents usually asked for

AD code letter from your bank
IEC and GST registration
PAN and address proof of the business

The process

Ask your AD bank for the AD code letter
Register it on ICEGATE for the port
Customs verifies and links it to your IEC
Repeat for each new port you ship from
