Why GST Registration is Crucial for Exporters and Importers
For businesses involved in international trade, GST registration is essential for claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) and obtaining Export Refunds. Whether you are exporting goods or importing products, you need to comply with GST laws to avoid penalties and enjoy various benefits.
Documents Required:
In addition to the general documents mentioned earlier, exporters and importers need the following:
- Import Export Code (IEC).
- Bank account details in India.
- Proof of business for the export/import activity (shipping bills, invoices, etc.).
Registration Process:
- Step 1: Log in to the GST portal and select New Registration.
- Step 2: Select Exporter or Importer as the type of taxpayer.
- Step 3: Fill in the details, upload the necessary documents, and submit the application.
Once registered, exporters are eligible to:
- Claim Input Tax Credit.
- File Letter of Undertaking (LUT) for exporting goods/services without payment of IGST.
