Meanwhile, the RBI&#8217;s authorized banks are responsible for issuing the 14-digit AD code. The exporters who deal with the export-import of goods need to obtain this 14-digit unique code. Between the customs department and exporters, the banks serve as the intermediary. Before the<\/span><b> AD code letter approval,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> the banks verify business registration details. Ultimately, this code plays a crucial role in connecting export-import operations to the current account. Even the exporters can only create shipping invoices when they have an authorized dealer code.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_Exporters_Need_to_Modify_AD_Code_Details\"><\/span><b>When Exporters Need to Modify AD Code Details?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is common to say that the export dealer code is valid for a lifetime. Meaning, there is no requirement to modify the certificate. However, here are a few exemptions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Change in Bank &amp; Details: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The primary concern regarding the <\/span>AD code registration <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and HS code lies with the banks. If, in a case, the exporter switches its current account with another bank or branch, they will need to register for a new code. With a new bank, register for a new code.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Change in Port: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The exporter needs to register the 14-digit code at every separate port. If a new port is selected for export, it is required to register a <\/span><b>new AD code for that port. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ICEGATE is the official portal for registration for the AD code.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Change in business details: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Any changes in the company&#8217;s official details that are linked to the AD code, modifications in the code, are critical. In cases where the exporter alters the company name or official address, an update is mandatory.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Comprehensive_Process_of_AD_Code_Modification\"><\/span><b>A Comprehensive Process of AD Code Modification<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As previously stated, the authorized dealer code remains valid for a lifetime. But the exemptions come when the exporter makes changes in bank details or business official details. The following outlines the procedure to acquire a new AD code:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Obtain_the_new_AD_code_letter\"><\/span><b>Step 1: Obtain the new AD code letter<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If the exporter switches its bank, it must ensure that the current account deals with export transactions. Request the new bank and ask for the new <\/span><b>AD code letter.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Upon request for approval, the bank will issue a code on the letterhead. The letter determines that you are legally connected to an authorized bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Prepare_the_Necessary_Document\"><\/span><b>Step 2: Prepare the Necessary Document<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the new bank, the fresh details of the account are further mandatory. The specific documents needed are<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Obtain soft copies of the AD Code letter from the new bank.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Copy of your <\/span><b>Import-Export Code (IEC) certificate.<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Copy of your GST registration certificate.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A cancelled cheque from your new bank account.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Company PAN Card.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Board Resolution (if applicable for companies).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">PAN and Aadhaar card of the authorized signatory.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Passport-size photo of the authorized signatory.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A filled-in application form as per the bank&#8217;s or customs&#8217; requirements.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Application_submission_for_Modification\"><\/span><b>Step 2: Application submission for Modification<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To obtain a new authorized dealer code, register with the customs department.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Otherwise, apply a request letter for the 14-digit code modification. Access the official website ICEGATE to register a new code.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>Step 4:\u00a0 Complete Application Form<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For new registration, fill out the application form accurately. It is essential to verify that the information you provide corresponds with the original business and bank details. Furthermore, the uploaded document must be in scanned format.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>Step 5: Verification of Application<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Upon successful submission for a new <\/span><b>AD code bank account registration, t<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">he details will be verified by the customs department. If they are satisfied with the details, a new AD code will be registered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is the last stage for the modification of a new code. Upon approval, the exporters can use it to file shipping bills.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Specific_Consideration_You_Must_Know\"><\/span><b>The Specific Consideration You Must Know<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The need to register the AD code at every port has ended. It means that when an exporter is once registered on ICEGATE at any port, it will register automatically at all customs locations. Now, you are no longer required to apply for registration at every port.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The modification of the authorized dealer code is also essential to ensure that any export incentives are credited accurately to a new bank account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Consequences_of_not_obtaining_a_New_AD_code\"><\/span><b>What are the Consequences of not obtaining a New AD code?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The registration for the AD code is generally required to create the shipping bill on ICEGATE. It ensures that the amount you are receiving comes from an authorized channel. In short, it is used to prevent illicit activities. On the other hand, when the exporters fail to apply for a new <\/span><b>AD code registration process<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in ICEGATE, they can face serious challenges. The major one is the shipping bill.
