Beyond DGFT: Essential statutory clearances across commodity boards, food safety, consumer standards, and environmental ministries for seamless cross-border shipments.
Alongside DGFT, many products need registrations from other bodies: APEDA or the Spices Board for agro exports, FSSAI for food imports, BIS for notified products, EPR for packaging and electronics, and Legal Metrology for packaged goods. We work out which apply and file them.
