Exporters receive an AD number and a document in the format specified by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) from banks that are approved dealers of foreign currency. It is crucial for customs clearance during export processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the port or airport where export goods are transported to their final destinations, exporters are required to register their AD code.
