For every import clearance, the exporter shall obtain an Import Certificate from the Regional Office of the Council by submitting an application as at Annexure-II. Regional Offices will issue the Import Certificate after debiting the details of imports against the Import Certificate at the back of the original Export Performance Certificate, based on the invoice duly self-attested or bill of entry submitted by the exporter along with the application for Import Certificate.

The last date for receipt of the application for issuance of EPC for the current financial year has been fixed as 31.7.2008. Applications received after this date will be accepted along with late fee charges of Rs. 1000/- per application along with the normal charges as prescribed above. The exporter can however apply immediately for EPCs for the year 2007-08.

Only one application for enhancement can be submitted by the exporter. Subsequent enhancement shall be subject to specific approval of AEPC. A fee, equivalent to charges for issuance of initial shall be levied, on each enhancement based on the amount intended to be enhanced. For example, if an amount of Rs. 1 crore or less is to be enhanced an additional amount of Rs. 3125/- shall be paid by the exporter. Exporter shall apply in format at Annexure – IV.
