MEIS is a historical goods-export scheme, not a route for incentives on new exports. DGFT's consolidated policy excludes exports made from 1 January 2021. Start a legacy enquiry with shipment dates, the existing application and the unresolved issue; do not assume an old unfiled claim can now be submitted.

BUILT AROUND YOUR BUSINESS
Less uncertainty. More direction.
Exporters organising a previously filed MEIS matter, a deficiency response or historical scrip records. First establish what happened and which question remains unresolved; record preparation is not an offer to reopen every old claim.
Clarity before commitment
Know the deliverables, documents and costs before work starts.
Careful preparation
Identify missing or inconsistent information before submission.
Coordinated support
Bring preparation, queries and follow-up into one agreed workflow.
Practical next steps
Know what you need to provide and what happens at handover.
GET READY, ONE STEP AT A TIME

We’ll share an applicant-specific checklist after a short discussion. The exact records depend on your circumstances.

Relevant IEC and bank-realisation records
02
Application chronology

Audio uses your browser’s available voice. The same information is provided as text.
We prepare, coordinate and track the agreed work. You stay involved in the decisions that matter.
01
Locate the matter
Record shipment dates, application references and the question to answer.
02
Reconcile the chronology
Compare the supplied records and identify missing or inconsistent evidence.
03
Check the possible next step
Distinguish historical instructions from a supported route for this matter.
04
Agree the handover
Deliver the chronology, evidence gaps and separately scoped next action.
Timing agreed after document review
A preparation estimate depends on the completeness of the historical file. A fee or preparation date does not establish an available filing window, authority response date or entitlement to relief.
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU STAND
Clear scope. No surprises.
The written engagement confirms your deliverables and costs before work starts.
Service scope to agree
Agree the historical period and unresolved question
Organise supplied shipment and application records
Prepare a dated chronology and missing-evidence list
Identify the supported next action or record that no further route has been established
Outside the standard scope
—A new-export MEIS incentive or reopening of time-barred applications
—Guaranteed recovery, incentive entitlement or authority relief
—Appeal, litigation, representation or scrip transactions unless separately agreed and available
What was the deadline for the final four-month export period?+
For exports from 1 September to 31 December 2020, the policy records 31 August 2022 as the last application date and says later applications become time-barred. This is a closed historical deadline, not permission to file now.
Does an old MEIS portal or form mean applications remain open?+
No. A retained form or manual is not evidence of an available claim window. Check the relevant period and any case-specific official basis before authorising work.
Can LIQUETAX guarantee that an old claim will be reopened?+
No. First establish whether there is a pending matter or a supported response route. Any relief remains subject to the relevant authority or court.
What if an application was already filed?+
Bring its acknowledgement, submitted workings and complete correspondence. The task should address that actual record rather than assume that a new filing is required or available.
What should I receive from a record review?+
A dated chronology, missing or inconsistent evidence, and a clearly scoped next action—or an explanation that no further route has been established.

Who this service helps & key decisions
MEIS is a historical goods-export scheme, not a route for incentives on new exports. DGFT's consolidated policy excludes exports made from 1 January 2021. Start a legacy enquiry with shipment dates, the existing application and the unresolved issue; do not assume an old unfiled claim can now be submitted.

Question
What matters
Next step
Export period
Identify each shipping bill's Let Export Order date and applicable historical policy.
Keep goods exported from 1 January 2021 outside a new MEIS claim.
Application history
Separate a filed pending application from one that was never submitted.
Find the acknowledgement and complete correspondence before considering a response.
Closed deadline
For exports from 1 September to 31 December 2020, paragraph 3.13A records 31 August 2022 as the last application date.
Do not present that historical deadline as an open filing opportunity.
Actual unresolved issue
Distinguish a deficiency, decision, scrip-use question and missing record.
Any claimed exception or further route needs its own genuine official basis.
Fee details, estimates & quote variables
₹5,000. Professional fee. Applicable GST, government charges and agreed third-party costs are extra.
One specified service engagement. Confirm the applicant, deliverables and exclusions in writing before work starts.
The displayed professional fee is unchanged. Confirm the historical periods and deliverables in writing; any external cost or additional representation must be separately agreed before payment.
Number of shipment/application records
Missing evidence and reconciliation work
Existing notice or decision requiring separate assessment
A preparation estimate depends on the completeness of the historical file. A fee or preparation date does not establish an available filing window, authority response date or entitlement to relief.
Your responsibilities, handover & ongoing work
Locate the matter
LIQUETAX: Record shipment dates, application references and the question to answer.
You: Provide the actual existing file and explain what remains unresolved.
Reconcile the chronology
LIQUETAX: Compare the supplied records and identify missing or inconsistent evidence.
You: Supply notices, replies and bank/shipping records rather than relying on recollection.
Check the possible next step
LIQUETAX: Distinguish historical instructions from a supported route for this matter.
You: Provide any order or direction claimed to permit further action.
Agree the handover
LIQUETAX: Deliver the chronology, evidence gaps and separately scoped next action.
You: Assign responsibility for follow-up; do not assume a record review guarantees relief.
At handover and afterwards
Retain the dated chronology and source references
Keep originals and acknowledgement records
Record missing evidence and its owner
Review any later authority communication against the actual file
Common mistakes to avoid
Using old ANF 3A instructions as proof that a new application is allowed
Treating a rolling deadline from an old guide as current
Confusing an unfiled application with a pending filed matter
Assuming an old reward rate applies to every shipment
