RoDTEP LICENSE
RoDTEP License – Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products
The RoDTEP License (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) is a flagship initiative under the Foreign Trade Policy of India, designed to enhance the global competitiveness of Indian exporters. This scheme provides rebates on embedded taxes and duties that were previously not refundable under any other scheme, ensuring exporters receive full remission of taxes paid on exported goods.
For exporters, the RoDTEP License is not just a benefit – it’s a strategic advantage in achieving better pricing, higher margins, and improved global market access.
What is the RoDTEP Scheme?
The RoDTEP Scheme, implemented by the Government of India on January 1, 2021, replaces the earlier MEIS (Merchandise Exports from India Scheme). It ensures that the taxes and duties incurred in the production and transportation of export goods, which cannot be claimed under GST or other schemes, are refunded in the form of transferable duty credit scrips or electronic duty credit ledger.
Who Can Avail RoDTEP Benefits?
The scheme is available to:
Manufacturer Exporters – Producers of goods shipped overseas.
Merchant Exporters – Exporters who source goods locally for export.
Small & Medium Enterprises (SMEs) – Expanding their presence in global markets.
Key Features of RoDTEP License:
Covers all sectors including agriculture, manufacturing, and handicrafts.
Refunds hidden taxes like electricity duty, mandi tax, fuel used in transport, etc.
Benefits are provided in the form of duty credits in an electronic ledger.
Fully WTO-compliant, ensuring no trade disputes at the international level.
