Supporting Manufacturers Ineligible for DBK & MEIS Benefits; Must Appear on Shipping Bill for EPCG Obligations Fulfillment A manufacturer inquires about eligibility for DBK and MEIS export incentives when exporting under a CT-1 form and fulfilling export obligations under EPCG. Responses indicate that as a supporting manufacturer, they are not eligible for DBK or MEIS benefits, which are available to the merchant exporter. However, they can fulfill EPCG obligations if their name appears on the shipping bill and ARE-1 form, with necessary documentation. The discussion highlights that MEIS benefits require the supporting manufacturer's name on the shipping bill and that DBK is directly credited to the merchant exporter's bank account.
