Export Invoicing & SEZ FAQ
What buyers ask.
LUT vs IGST. Which path is better for our exports?
LUT (no IGST paid, no refund needed) is the operationally simpler path for regular exporters. IGST-with-refund is the path for first-time or irregular exporters who can't commit to a year-long LUT. The system supports both paths and tracks the refund where applicable.
FIRC vs BRC. Which one matters for what?
FIRC (Foreign Inward Remittance Certificate) is issued by the bank when the export receipt lands. BRC (Bank Realisation Certificate) is issued by the AD bank confirming the export realisation against an invoice. FIRC is for one receipt; BRC links to one or more invoices. Both captured at receipt.
IGST refund (RFD-01). How long does it take?
GSTN typically processes RFD-01 in 60-90 days. The system drafts the application, files via API, and tracks the status from acknowledgement to disbursement. Notices and queries from the GSTN are surfaced for response.
SEZ supplies vs regular exports. What's the difference?
SEZ supplies (to a unit in a Special Economic Zone) are zero-rated under Section 26 of the SEZ Act, but the supply is to a domestic SEZ unit, not a foreign customer. The GST treatment is the same as exports (LUT or IGST refund), but the bank receipt is in INR and the customer is Indian.
