only can act as an importer.
Foreign Trade government
office of that particular
country is responsible to issue
such authorization to become
an importer. For example in
India, IEC number (Import
Export Code Number) is
obtained from the office of
Director General of Foreign
Trade office to operate as an
importer and exporter in
India. This process to
become
an importer is a onetime
process, but renewal required
as per the terms and
conditions of such foreign trade
office of a country.

imports and exports are online
digitalized. So the importers of
beauty products i.e., Perfumery,
Cosmetic items, toilet
preparations, and oils are also
required to contact concerned
government agencies of their
importing country to verify
whether such onetime
registration is necessary or not.
