E-scrips generated under the RoDTEP scheme are valid for two years from the date of generation. You must utilize the e-scrips within this two-year period. If your e-scrip shows a validity until 2027, it indicates that it was generated in 2025, and you should use it before its expiration date in 2027. Process to Sell E-Scrips (in general) .... Account Creation: Ensure you have created an e-scrip account on the ICEGATE portal. This requires valid IEC (Import Export Code) registration and a digital signature. Generating E-Scrips: After logging into your ICEGATE account, you can generate e-scrips by selecting the relevant shipping bills associated with your exports. Transferring E-Scrips: To sell or transfer e-scrips: Navigate to the transfer section in your e-scrip account. Initiate a transfer request to another IEC holder. The transferee must approve the transfer using a One-Time Password (OTP) sent to their registered mobile number. Utilization: The transferred e-scrip can be used by the recipient to pay Basic Customs Duty (BCD) during imports, but cannot be used for anti-dumping duties or GST. Documentation: Ensure all necessary declarations are made in your shipping bill at the time of export to comply with RoDTEP requirements.
