use of Digital Signature Certificates (DSCs) for all online
document submissions on its website, underlining the essential
role of DSCs in verifying document authenticity
electronically. This requirement ensures that every
organization engaged in export and import services possesses a
DSC for conducting online transactions with the DGFT. The
process includes verifying the sender's identity, the DSC's
validity, and the legitimacy of the submitted documents before
proceeding with the allotment of license issuance. One
significant advantage for EXIM organizations submitting
documents online is a 50% discount on license fees. DSCs also
offer protection against fraud, such as identity theft and
misuse of information. For organizations submitting documents
through Custom House Agents, DSC validation is required. To
obtain an Export and Import license, an organization must have
a Class 3 DSC registered under the name of an authorized
representative. Recognized by the legal system and the
Government of India, documents signed with a DSC are deemed
more authentic than those with a physical signature, aligning
with the privileges provided by the Indian Information
