Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

What it means

  • The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has de-listed 29 agencies from Appendix 2E of the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2023. These agencies were previously authorized to issue Certificates of Origin (Non-Preferential). The de-listing is due to their failure to onboard onto the e-CoO platform for electronic issuance of certificates, despite repeated reminders and follow-ups.

Key Changes

  • 29 agencies have been removed from Appendix 2E of the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2023.
  • These 29 agencies are no longer authorized to issue Certificates of Origin (Non-Preferential).
  • The action was taken because these agencies did not comply with the DGFT's directions to onboard onto the e-CoO platform for electronic certificate issuance, even after receiving multiple reminders following Trade Notice No. 22/2023 dated 16.08.2023 which gave a final notice with a deadline of August 31, 2023.
  • Originally, 32 agencies had failed to respond or take action, but the notification specifically de-lists 29 agencies.

Impact Analysis

Stakeholders Affected

  • Exporters and Importers who require Certificates of Origin (Non-Preferential) for their trade activities.

Suggested Action Items
