So far, the Handicrafts and Handloom Department has issued over 350 RCMCs under powers conferred in the Handbook of Procedures notified by the Director General Foreign Trade.
As per the foreign trade policy, an exporter is required to get an RCMC for availing various benefits to become part of global network of exporters and importers, exposure to international markets and Government incentives.
