IEC Registration under GST

[Kishan Barai]

It is said PAN would be IEC under GST, so will Registration would be required via Dgft.gov.in & if yes, what Documentation would be required ??

At present 200 Containers are chocked at Mundra Port as shipping bill is not generating without GSTN

Below 20,00,000 turn over how one can tackle issue without GST ??

Please elaborate....

IEC will convert PAN based by default

below 20 Lakh no GST IN require I think the EDI not updated that is why problem represent to custom dept for change in software

AI Summary

PAN conversion to IEC can bypass GSTIN requirement for small taxpayers; update EDI or approach customs to resolve. PAN will be treated as the Importer Exporter Code (IEC) by default under the GST transition; taxpayers below the turnover threshold are not required to obtain a GSTIN. Difficulties in generating shipping bills arise where EDI or port software has not been updated to reflect PAN IEC conversion and threshold exceptions. A procedural remedy is to represent the matter to the customs department so software or database records can be corrected to allow export documentation to be generated.
