Agra Handicraft Exporter Activates UAE Market in 6 Weeks

Handicrafts | UAE | IEC + RCMC + RoDTEP setup

A marble and brass handicraft manufacturer from Agra had been selling domestically for 11 years when a Dubai wholesale buyer contacted him via IndiaMART with a $12,000 trial order. He had no IEC, no RCMC, and no export documentation process in place. Rasp International completed IEC registration in 2 working days, handled EPCH RCMC, registered AD Code at ICD Tughlakabad, prepared all shipment documents including Certificate of Origin, and set up RoDTEP claim process before the first shipment. The order shipped within 6 weeks of first contact. The buyer reordered within 45 days. RoDTEP credits from the first two shipments recovered 60% of the total cost of working with us.

Kanpur Leather Exporter Recovers Unclaimed Incentives

Leather Goods | UK + France | Incentive Audit

A leather bags and accessories exporter from Kanpur had been exporting to Europe for 4 years with an IEC and a shipping agent but had never claimed RoDTEP, had an expired RCMC, and was not claiming Duty Drawback. Estimated unclaimed incentives over 24 months: Rs 3.8 to 4.2 lakhs. Rasp International audited 24 months of shipping bills and GST filings, renewed CLE RCMC, filed retrospective RoDTEP claims, and set up a forward-looking incentive tracking process tied to his ICEGATE account. Result: Rs 2.9 lakhs recovered within the retrospective window. Ongoing RoDTEP and Duty Drawback claims now generate an average of Rs 18,000 per shipment that was previously left unclaimed.

Rajasthan Spice Exporter Clears US Customs on First Attempt

Spices | USA | Full documentation and regulatory setup

A Rajasthan spice processor received a purchase order from a South Asian grocery distributor in New Jersey for 500 kg of mixed spices. He had an IEC but did not know about FDA Prior Notice requirements, FSSAI export certification, or US customs labelling regulations. The buyer gave a 45-day window. Rasp International handled FDA Prior Notice filing, coordinated FSSAI export certificate documentation, verified HS code classification for US customs duties, and worked with the packaging vendor on labelling corrections before goods were packed. The shipment cleared US customs on first attempt with zero holds. The buyer described the documentation as cleaner than most of their international suppliers. A 1,200 kg follow-on order is currently in production.
