Export Documentation in Chennai, Thanjavur, Cuddalore & Ariyalur

Overview

Chennai's seaport and airport make it one of India's busiest export gateways, and Thanjavur district's handicrafts, coconut, rice and seafood products find buyers worldwide. But first-time exporters often lose time and money on paperwork — a missing LUT means paying IGST upfront, and a mismatched invoice delays your refund.

We set up your export compliance end-to-end: Import Export Code from DGFT, registration with the relevant Export Promotion Council (RCMC), AD code registration on ICEGATE through your bank, annual Letter of Undertaking for exporting without paying GST, and the commercial documents your freight forwarder and customs broker need. After shipment, we file GST refund claims and track e-BRCs.
