Five files, one inbox
Your supplier emails five documents stitched into a single PDF. Someone on your team re-types every line into a portal that talks to no other.
Hours per shipment — re-keyed, and quietly mis-keyed.
Every rupee you’re owed. Every document, filed.
FDP Connect is export-documentation and DGFT-incentive software for Indian exporters. While your container sails, FDP Connect files the paperwork — Shipping Bill, eBL, Certificate of Origin — and claims every incentive on arrival. Watch one real shipment run.
- Get paid faster.
- Ship compliant.
- Cut the busywork.
✓ Shipping Bill filed ✓ eBL issued ✓ CoO verified ₹ Incentives credited — RoDTEP + Drawback + GST refund
Illustrative worked example: Paracetamol Tablets, US$28,800 FOB, Nhava Sheva → Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. RoDTEP 0.9% (rate is HSN- and export-date-specific), Drawback 0.15% AIR, GST refund ≈6.5% of FOB (your own input GST, per Rule 89). Converted at USD/INR 95.49 (13 Jul 2026), refreshed each deploy. Not a guaranteed entitlement — the app computes exact values per shipment.
Every line, lowest lawful duty. Every claim, defended.
FDP Connect is import-compliance software for Indian importers. While your container steams in, it drafts the Bill of Entry, compares standard, FTA and concessional duty on every line, and keeps the CAROTAR paper trail audit-ready. Watch one real consignment land.

How trade moves today
One shipment. Five strangers. Nobody can check the paper.
Follow the same export to Korea — before FDP Connect. Scroll, and watch each hand-off leak time, money and trust.
The mismatch you can’t see
A weight here, a total there, a name spelled two ways. Your invoice, packing list and bill of lading slowly stop agreeing.
And you find out when customs does — after the goods have sailed.
The box nobody ticked
The RoDTEP declaration was never flagged on the shipping bill. By the time anyone notices, the window to claim it has closed.
Money you earned by exporting — forfeited to a checkbox you never saw.
Your own money, on hold
The GST refund goes in. Then weeks of chasing a range officer while the cash you need for the next order sits locked in the ledger.
So you borrow — around 12% — to finance a refund the government already owes you.
Refused on a technicality
You shipped on time and did everything right. The bank refuses the letter of credit on first presentation because a date is one day off.
Payment held for weeks — while your buyer uses the discrepancy to renegotiate.
A document that can’t prove itself
Your certificate or bill of lading lands in an inbox no bank, buyer or officer can check in real time.
A forgery can slip through — and your genuine document can’t prove it’s real.
How trade moves today
One consignment. Full duty paid. A claim you can’t defend.
Follow one container landing at Nhava Sheva — before FDP Connect. Scroll, and watch each hand-off leak duty, days and proof.
The concession nobody checked
An FTA rate existed for this line — but nobody ran the rule of origin, so the Bill of Entry filed at the standard rate to be safe.
Duty you never owed, paid to Customs — unrecoverable the day the BoE was finalised.
The claim that collapsed at assessment
You claimed the preferential rate. The appraiser asks for the origin evidence — RVC working, the exact criterion, Form I. You have a supplier’s PDF and a guess.
Provisional duty and a CAROTAR bond — while the container sits and the query ages.
The Bill of Entry waiting on a spreadsheet
Five documents stitched into one PDF, re-typed line by line into the broker’s system before the BoE can even be drafted.
Free days burn while data is re-keyed — then detention and demurrage start the meter.
The end-use clock you forgot was running
Imported at the concessional IGCR rate against a bond, with a one-year end-use clock ticking from clearance. No one reconciled the lot; the window quietly closed.
§28AA interest at ~15% p.a. plus penalty — the concession clawed back.
A certificate tied to nothing
The supplier’s Certificate of Origin lands as a loose attachment. Which invoice line it justifies is anyone’s guess — until an auditor asks you to map evidence to claim.
Five years of retention obligation, and no defensible link between paper and benefit.
One wrong digit, the wrong tariff
An 8-digit HSN typed from memory drops the goods into the wrong tariff line. A demand notice catches it before you do.
Short-paid duty becomes interest and penalty; over-paid duty you never even knew about.
How trade moves today
Every client’s paperwork lands on your desk. None of it talks to the next.
Follow one working day across the clients you file for — before FDP Connect. Scroll, and watch your margin leak between the hand-offs.
The same shipment, typed four times
One client’s ICEGATE, line by line, sign, log out. Then the next client, a different portal, the same fields again. Nothing you type in one place shows up in the next.
Your best people spent as data-entry — one transposed digit from a customs query.
Held at the docks over a checklist
An importer’s Bill of Entry checklist comes together by hand — half from Logi-Sys, half from an email thread, the rest from memory. One document short, the container sits.
Demurrage running by the hour, an importer on the phone — and it lands on you.
The refund that was never your line
Your client’s RoDTEP box goes unticked. The drawback never files. The GST refund ages past its window. They lose the money — you never billed a rupee for saving it.
A recovery service you could have sold — walking out the door with every consignment.
Twelve clients, twelve inboxes
“Where’s my consignment?” You piece status together from portal tabs, client vaults and WhatsApp threads — by hand, for each one who calls.
Throughput capped by headcount, not software — to file more, you hire more.
The mismatch customs finds first
Across one client’s documents, a weight, a total and a name drift apart — invoice, packing list and bill of lading stop agreeing. The query arrives before you do.
An amendment, a delay, a demurrage call — and a client who blames the broker.
The client who slipped away
An exporter who missed their incentive money and copped a preventable hold shops the market at renewal.
Retention you can’t rebuild with lower rates — only with clients who get paid on time.
Same shipment. Same parties. Every leak traces back to one thing — a document nobody could trust or check in real time.
The gap
Your ERP stops at the gate. Trade doesn't.
You just watched it leak, hand-off by hand-off. Here's the same shipment, side by side — the old way against FDP Connect.
The traditional way
- Re-keyed by hand, couriered, error-prone.
- Chased with consultants; left on the table.MFN duty paid on lines an FTA already covers.Client refunds missed; recovery never billed.
- Days of back-and-forth; forgery slips through.
- Manual checks against changing rules.
With FDP Connect
- Read, reconciled and signed in minutes.
- RoDTEP, drawback & refunds compute themselves.Standard vs FTA duty compared on every line.Incentive recovery you can bill, per client.
- Verify any document against the chain — no login.
- Clocks, bonds & origin rules metered for you.
Less time. Lower cost. Near-zero risk.
That's the difference.
Not a feature list.
One shipment, end to end
Follow one shipment. Scroll — and watch each capability hand off to the next, until it clears, the money lands and the benefits realise themselves.
Product & order
Your product master — HSN, cost breakdown, FTA eligibility — becomes the canonical source.
One source of truth, ready to ship.
Documents in
A supplier emails five documents stitched into one PDF. FDP splits, OCRs and classifies each in milliseconds.
Five docs read and structured — nothing re-keyed.
Integrity check
Cross-document reconciliation compares names, invoice totals and weights across the CI, PL and BL.
Mismatches caught before customs ever sees them.
Readiness ring
The CoO readiness engine resolves every required field and gates filing at the 80% green threshold.
Green means ready to file — no guesswork.

The platform, by outcome
One platform for documents, incentives, compliance and proof
We grouped the whole platform the way you’d actually use it — by the outcome, not the org chart.
Documents that finish themselves
Drop in a messy PDF; get clean, signed documents back — OCR’d, cross-checked against every other doc in the shipment, and held back from filing until nothing contradicts.
Money you’re owed, captured
Every incentive, refund and drawback — RoDTEP, Duty Drawback, GST refund, EPCG, Advance Authorisation — computed, tracked and realised. Never left on the table.
Compliance that watches the clock
Deadlines, bonds and rule-changes metered automatically — IGCR end-use clocks, SCOMET, ARR — so a window never lapses on you.
Finance & payments, unlocked
Finance, hedge and get paid — Letters of Credit, FX forwards, marine insurance, guarantees — on documents banks can actually trust.
Trust you can prove
A bank, buyer or customs officer accepts your document the moment they see it — eBL and identity-tiered signatures on BharatTradeNet, verifiable by anyone, instantly, without an account.

Who it’s for
One platform — for everyone in the consignment
Exporters, importers, customs brokers, freight forwarders, banks and insurers — each gets the view, and the message, that’s theirs.
For Indian exporters
Ship it once. Claim everything. Prove all of it.
FDP Connect is export-incentive and documentation software for Indian exporters. It reads your documents, drafts the next, and files on ICEGATE, DGFT and trade.gov.in in your own session — hunting down the RoDTEP, Drawback, GST-refund and scheme benefits most exporters leave behind, all on one record your bank and buyer can verify.
Explore the Exporter view For importers
Clear faster. Pay the lowest lawful duty. Prove every rupee of it.
FDP Connect is import-compliance software for Indian importers. It drafts your Bill of Entry, compares standard, FTA-preferential and concessional-rate duty on every line, and keeps the CAROTAR, IGCR and bonded-manufacturing paper trail audit-ready — so the duty you save actually sticks, and the goods clear while the container is still worth clearing.
Explore the Importer view For customs brokers & freight forwarders
Carry every client from one desk — and get paid for what you save them.
FDP Connect is EXIM software for customs brokers and CHAs. It reads each client's documents and email, files Shipping Bills, Bills of Entry and Certificates of Origin on the government portals, recovers the incentives their exporters are owed, and catches the mismatches that get consignments held — across every client workspace, from one cockpit.
Explore the Customs House Agent view For freight forwarders
Move title, not paper.
FDP Connect is freight-forwarder software for moving title, not paper. Issue, endorse and surrender electronic Bills of Lading as MLETR transferable records — handed to the negotiating bank in seconds, not couriered for days. Read every principal's documents once, catch the mismatches customs would, prove any document against the chain, and track rail to port — all from one cockpit across every client.
Explore the Freight forwarder view For banks & trade finance
Check the set before you commit. Verify the collateral before you lend.
FDP Connect is trade-finance document software for banks. It cross-checks every LC and collection set against its terms before honour, verifies any signed Bill of Lading or Certificate of Origin against a shared chain anchor in 30 seconds with no login, and puts guarantees, subvention, FX hedges and e-BRC realisation on one shelf — so you settle faster, refuse less, and finance title you can prove is exclusively yours.
Explore the Banks & trade finance view For marine cargo insurers & brokers
Bind cover on the shipment — not the cover note.
FDP Connect is marine cargo insurance software for insurers and brokers. It reconciles the sum insured against the shipment's own CIF, sets the ICC clause by the Incoterm, and keeps every open cover and declaration in one register — so you underwrite on the same verifiable trade record the exporter and negotiating bank already see, not a hand-typed PDF.

FAQ
Questions exporters actually ask
The honest answers — especially the ones about trust and control.
What is RoDTEP and how do I claim it?
RoDTEP (Remission of Duties and Taxes on Exported Products) is an Indian government scheme that refunds the embedded central, state and local duties on exported goods as a transferable duty credit. You claim it by marking the RoDTEP declaration on your Shipping Bill; the credit scroll generates after export. FDP Connect estimates the amount per shipment, tracks the ledger, and handles the Annual RoDTEP Return (mandatory once your yearly claim crosses the DGFT threshold).
Is an electronic Bill of Lading legally valid in India?
An electronic Bill of Lading (eBL) is a digital record of title to goods. FDP Connect issues eBLs aligned with the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Transferable Records (MLETR). India has not yet enacted MLETR — the Bills of Lading Act 2025 modernised the older statute but did not itself grant eBLs legal equivalence — so recognition is still emerging; a Digital Trade Facilitation Bill was in draft as of 2026.
What documents does an Indian exporter need?
An Indian exporter typically needs a commercial invoice, packing list, Shipping Bill, Bill of Lading or Airway Bill, and a Certificate of Origin (preferential under an FTA, or non-preferential). Depending on the goods, add compliance certificates — SCOMET authorisation, phytosanitary, pharma CPP, or marine health. FDP Connect drafts, cross-checks and files these from one shipment record.
What is CAROTAR and does it affect my FTA import claim?
CAROTAR 2020 (Customs Administration of Rules of Origin under Trade Agreements Rules) requires an Indian importer claiming a preferential FTA duty rate to verify and hold origin evidence — the rule of origin met, Form I, and supporting records kept for five years. FDP Connect runs CAROTAR-ready origin checks and matches each supplier Certificate of Origin to the invoice line it justifies.
What if RoBoCo files the wrong thing on a government portal?
It never submits on its own. RoBoCo logs into trade.gov.in / ICEGATE in your own authenticated session, fills the form and pauses — you approve the final submit. Nothing irreversible happens without your click.
Is my data safe?
Your DSC signing token never leaves your browser. Portal credentials are encrypted at rest, your data is stored in India, and each CHA client sits in an isolated workspace. We never see your passwords in plain text.
Does this replace my CHA or my CA?
No — it makes them faster. A CHA runs every client from one cockpit and bills incentive recovery as a service; your CA gets a clean, reconciled, audit-ready record instead of a shoebox of PDFs.
Is it recognised by DGFT and Customs?
FDP files on the official government portals — it doesn’t replace them. Certificates and documents are issued through trade.gov.in/ICEGATE and are independently verifiable against the chain by any party, with no login.
Do I have to change my ERP?
No. Odoo (or your ERP) stays your system of record; FDP runs the EXIM layer on top and syncs both ways.
How long does onboarding take?
Sign in with your IEC and your firm, products and partners auto-fill from DGFT records. Most exporters run their first shipment the same day.
What does it cost?
Free to start — drafting, OCR and the incentive ledger cost nothing, no credit card. You pay only when a filing actually goes out, from a pre-paid wallet, and your first Certificate of Origin is on us. No subscription, no per-seat. We confirm the exact pay-per-filing price on your demo; CHAs use one shared wallet.
What happens to my money if a submission fails?
Nothing is lost. The wallet is charged at the moment a filing goes out and auto-refunded in full if that submission is cancelled or fails — you only ever pay for a filing that actually completed.
Is there a contract or a minimum?
No — no subscription, no per-seat fee, no minimum. Top up the wallet as you go; stop topping up and you simply stop filing. Your ERP stays your system of record, so there’s no data silo to escape.
What if I don’t have a DSC token yet?
You can draft, OCR, reconcile and track incentives without one. A DSC — or Aadhaar eSign — is only needed to digitally sign a document before it’s filed, and when you sign, the token never leaves your browser.
Do I own my data — and my clients’ data?
Yes. Your data is stored in India and stays yours; each CHA client sits in its own isolated workspace, walled off from every other. Filed certificates live on the official portals, independently verifiable.
Can a bank or buyer verify a certificate without an account?
Yes. Every FDP-issued document can be checked against the chain anchor on a public page with no login — the signature is re-derived and the anchor reconciled independently, so tampering shows as an invalid link.

“The five documents our supplier used to email us as one PDF now flow straight into a filing. What took a full day takes minutes — and we’ve stopped leaving RoDTEP on the table because the declaration is flagged before the shipping bill goes out.”
“Running every client from one screen — with the Shipping Bill fields already aligned to ICEGATE and each client walled off in its own workspace — changed how our desk works. One wallet, charges and refunds flowing per client, no re-keying between portals.”
“The incentive ledger showed us money we didn’t know we were owed, and the GST refund statement came out ready to file instead of chasing a range officer for weeks. That’s working capital back in the business, not stuck in the ledger.”
“On preferential imports we finally have the origin evidence and CAROTAR checklist in one place before the Bill of Entry — so an FTA claim is something we can defend, not just tick.”
