AI Summary

Merchant export formalities require IEC and tax registrations to enable bonded removal and post-export duty refunds.
Merchant exporters must secure an Importer Exporter Code and RCMC, obtain VAT/CST registration and any applicable service tax registration, and register with port banks and customs for BIN. For duty treatment, bonded removal documentation (CT-1 or revolving B-1 bond), ARE-1 preparation, gate signatures, and submission of proof of export within the prescribed period are required to defer excise duty and claim duty drawback; absent CT-1/B-1 the manufacturer may be liable to pay excise duty recoverable from the exporter.
