What is ICEGATE?
ICEGATE is an online platform developed by Indian customers to provide electronic services related to customs clearance, import and export documentation, and trade compliance. It is administered by Indian Customs, part of the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC), which is responsible for managing trade, cargo carriers, and other trading partners. It facilitates e-filing services for customs brokers (license/F-card and G-card holders), IEC holders (and their authorized representatives), shipping lines, shipping agents, airlines, air agents, console agents, and various other stakeholders.
The portal bridges the gap between customs authorities and importers, exporters, and various stakeholders in international trade.
ICEGATE is interconnected with several partner agencies, such as the RBI, banks, DGFT, DGCIS, the Ministry of Steel, the Directorate of Valuation, and other government agencies involved in EXIM trade, facilitating quicker customs clearance. All the electronic communication and documents are managed and proceeded by ICEGATE and are managed at the customs end by the Indian Customs EDI System (ICES).
Some essential points tp consider
- It is mandatory for customs clearance of export-import shipment in India
- The authorized code is provided by the authorized bank in India, i.e., the Reserve Bank of India.
- There is no need to renew the ICEGATE unless the additional changes are brought into a bank account.
- Forex accounts should be linked with the ICEGATE 2.0 portal digitally.
Need for ICEGATE Registration

The process requires the exporters or their representatives to personally visit the Customs House.
