The government authorized the Mobile and Electronic Devices Export Promotion Council (MEDEPC) to issue registration certificates, a key document for exporters, for certain products related to the sector, including smartphones, smart watches, monitors, and parts of mobile phones. According to the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP), a Registration and Membership Certificate (RCMC) is required for exporters in order to avail themselves of benefits under the policy. Holding the certificate can also help exporters avail of benefits with respect to customs and excise.
This certificate is issued by export promotion councils and commodity boards.
“MEDEPC has been included in the appendix 2T of FTP 2015-20 for issuing RCMC for specific items, with immediate effect,” the directorate general of foreign trade (DGFT) said in a public notice.
