Answer 4

Import Licences are now a days are more exception than a rule. Import Licence is issued for items that are not allowed to be freely imported AND are subjected to the import licencing procedure.

For this you must have an Import Export Code Number obtained from the JDGFT in whose jurisdiction your company/firm/unit is situated.

If the product you wish to import is not under the Freely importable category, you may apply for the import licence giving the details of quantity and the price (based on quotation/indent you have received). The licence if issued will be for the total landed cost of the goods (CIF value, cost transit insurance and freight). This licence will be in two copies. One, the Exchange Control Copy, to be utilised for effecting remittance to foreign seller or for opening letter of credit and the other, the Customs Copy , to be utilised for presenting to Customs authority enabling them to clear the goods.(Otherwise that import will be unauthorised import, liable for confiscation and /or penalty)
