SEZ Unit - Bond/LUT under GST
Asked by
Export supply to SEZ requires Bond/LUT or bond with security and a contractual certificate to access GST relief.
Supplying manpower to an SEZ is treated as an export of services under GST and to invoice tax-free the supplier must furnish either a Bond/LUT or a bond with bank guarantee where LUT eligibility is absent; a contractual agreement and any certificate from the SEZ are necessary to process refunds or exemptions and to satisfy the SEZ's security and documentation conditions.
