FROM FIRST CONVERSATION TO HANDOVER
We prepare, coordinate and track the agreed work. You stay involved in the decisions that matter.
Separate clear coverage from product questions needing confirmation.
Identify missing entity or activity evidence.
List the current channel, attachments and costs for approval.
Separate issued records from unresolved reporting actions.
Preparation depends on complete records and resolution of the correct application route. CDB decides the application; a directory entry or payment receipt is not RCMC issuance evidence.
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU STAND
The written engagement confirms your deliverables and costs before work starts.
ANSWERS BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Need help with your specific situation?
Talk to our teamIts published EPC overview excludes products made from husk and fibre. Explain the exact product and consider the Coir Board route instead of assuming one coconut registration covers everything.

The published form asks for manufacturer evidence and particulars of products, machinery and capacity. Confirm the current accepted documents rather than automatically reproducing its older SSI terminology.
References: CDB: published RCMC preparation form
No. The directory form itself asks exporters for an RCMC number. Keep the directory record separate from the certificate you need for the export-registration task.
References: CDB: online directory registration fields
The board's available documents differ: its proforma says monthly, while the application undertaking says quarterly. Confirm the operative instruction with CDB for your record; this guide does not choose an unsupported deadline.

Keep product, HS description, destination, quantity and value records by month, with a cumulative working. That helps explain the figures without guessing a reporting obligation.

Do not budget on that assumption. Identify the actual scheme, current conditions and separate application, and obtain an agreed assessment before relying on assistance.

| Question | What matters | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Product boundary | Is the product kernel-, water- or shell-based, or made from husk/fibre? | Flag unclear mixed products before selecting the registration. |
| Business role | Do you manufacture the goods or source them from another unit? | Prepare evidence for the role actually performed. |
| Record required | Do you need RCMC, a directory listing or an existing-record correction? | Keep the requested outcome explicit in the quote. |
| Ongoing reporting | The published monthly return proforma and quarterly application undertaking differ. | Obtain the operative reporting instruction before setting a compliance deadline. |
₹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.
Approved professional pricing remains unchanged. Ask for the current board charge and payment channel in the written quote; an old downloadable form is not a reliable all-inclusive price promise. Additional unit, certification or reporting work must be separately agreed.
Preparation depends on complete records and resolution of the correct application route. CDB decides the application; a directory entry or payment receipt is not RCMC issuance evidence.

Coconut Development Board coverage and the exclusion of products made from coconut husk and fibre.
Substantive official overview read. Its older policy wording is not used to promise a benefit or declare every shipment eligible.
Exporter category, entity and manufacturer evidence; the form's quarterly-return undertaking.
All four pages read. This legacy form retains old payment/form references; confirm the current filing channel and checklist. Its quarterly-return wording conflicts with the separate monthly proforma.
Monthly and cumulative product-level export records and the conflicting published reporting frequency.
One-page proforma read. It requests monthly returns, while the application undertaking says quarterly. The guide explicitly leaves the operative frequency and deadline for confirmation.
