The Importance of AD Code Registration at Ports<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The authorized dealer code is used for multiple reasons, including use during customs clearance and linkage of the current bank account to international trade activities. Even for the <\/span><b>shipping bill filing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the registration of AD at ports is vital. Failure to register the code at the ports, the goods will not be passed and will be held in storage areas. In addition, for the exporter&#8217;s verification, the customs authority uses the AD (Authorized Dealer) code.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Ensure_the_Records_Accuracy_Before_Starting_the_AD_Code_Process\"><\/span><b>2.

The steps make the fundamental blocks that complete the international trade activities. Well, for the valid AD code management, the exporters are first required to correct their documents.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Document Consistency: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Having all the details consistent with the required documents, such as the IEC number, GST certificate, and PAN, is crucial. A single error in the document or mismatched information can lead to application rejection, resulting in shipment delay.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Class 3 DSC:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> For the online AD code letter registration on the ICEGATE portal, the exporters are required to use the Class 3 DSC. This digital signature certificate allows for the subordination of documents and the signing of applications electronically.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Authorized Banks:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The AD code is not issued by all banks. Must ensure that your bank is RBI authorized and deals in foreign exchange.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_How_to_Manage_AD_Code_Records_Via_the_ICEGATE_Portal\"><\/span><b>3. How to Manage AD Code Records Via the ICEGATE Portal?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once the exporter ensures the accuracy of all export-related documents, the second stage is to streamline the registration process. The management of the<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.legalraasta.com\/blog\/icegate-portal-ad-code\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b> AD code on ICEGATE<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (Indian Customs Electronic Gateway) is also vital.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>a) One-Time Port Registration<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Instead of registering the authorized dealer code at each separate port, the exporters can apply for port registration through the digital portal, ICEGATE. The system will make the AD code available across all ports under the same IEC number.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>b) Multiple-Bank Accounts<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In case an exporter obtains the multi-codes from the different register banks, they can register all against their IEC on the online ICEGATE portal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>c) DRN &amp; IRN<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For the documents and AD code letter submission, you must use the ICEGATE&#8217;s e-Sanchit feature. For future reference, the exporter must keep the Document Reference Number (DRN) and Invoice Reference Number (IRN).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>d) Separate IFSC Code<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apart from<\/span><b> AD code registration at ports,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> the exporters are still required to link their IFSC code to each separate port.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><em><strong>Explore more About: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legalraasta.com\/blog\/ad-code-at-mundra-port\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AD Code Registration at Mundra Port<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Best_Practices_to_Avoid_Legal_Complications_with_AD_Code\"><\/span><b>4.
