The Directorate General of Foreign Trade permits EEPC INDIA and other concerned export promotion councils to issue Registration-cum-Membership Certificates for medical devices. The export promotion council for medical devices does not start regular functioning or use the common digital platform. Exporters face difficulty in getting certificates and clearing goods under the export scheme. EEPC INDIA and other concerned councils issue the certificates until the export promotion council for medical devices starts proper functioning. Customs authorities accept these certificates until further orders.

Subject: Issuance of RCMC for Medical Devices – regarding.
Reference is invited to DGFT Public Notice No. 18/2023 dated 23.06.2023 whereby Export Promotion Council (EPC) for Medical Devices was included in the Appendix 2T of FTP 2023 for issuing RCMC for specific items. Through the said Public Notice, it was inter alia notified that RCMC issued by EEPC INDIA till the date of issue of that Public Notice shall remain valid till their expiry.
Now it has been noted that the EPC for Medical Devices is yet to start regular functioning and could not onboard on the Common Digital platform of DGFT for issuance of RCMC. As one of the conditions for availing benefits under RoDTEP for medical devices is mandatory RCMC from the concerned EPC, the industry is facing difficulty in getting RCMC and clearance of their goods at Customs point.
Accordingly, the matter has been reviewed in DGFT and it has been decided that till such time the EPC for Medical Devices starts proper functioning, the RCMC may be issued by the EEPC INDIA and any other concerned EPC for Medical Devices.
Further, the Customs Authorities are requested to accept the RCMC for medical devices issued by EEPC INDIA and any other concerned EPC till further orders.
This issues with the approval of the competent authority
