Question

What is exporting process to send product in bulk from India?

Answer 1

You have not mentioned whether you are a manufacturer or trader. I presume that you are a trader - a merchant exporter.

Briefly, the export process is as follows broadly:

You have to obtain an exporter code number from the authorities. You need to procure an order for supply/sale of goods. You should either have the product to market or would be required to source the product as per the requirements. Then you have to arrange for the inspection of the quality and quantity of the product. Then comes the packing of product as per specifications, markings, tags etc. Prepare invoices, bank and customs documents, inspection certificates and other desired documents etc. Arrange transportation of products to the port of dispatch. Arrange carrier to ship/air lift the goods. Complete formalities as to customs, shipping etc. Submit document to your bank for collection/discounting/presentation to the buyer. Get proceeds as per the contract of sale. File relevant info with RBI as to export and receipt of proceeds. Claim export benefits if any applicable to your products exported.
