If you are planning to export coffee or coffee-related products from Delhi NCR whether you operate from Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Faridabad, or Ghaziabad—one document you must have is the RCMC under the Coffee Board of India.
This certificate acts as official proof that your business is registered with the right Export Promotion Council, and it is required for smooth export operations, DGFT benefits, and customs clearance.
This guide explains the complete process, documents, eligibility, fees, benefits, and how exporters in Delhi NCR can register without confusion.
The Registration-cum-Membership Certificate (RCMC) is issued by the Coffee Board of India, a government authority that manages and promotes coffee exports.
● Raw coffee beans
● Roasted coffee
● Instant coffee
● Coffee powder
● Coffee extracts
● Coffee concentrates
● Value-added or flavored coffee
The RCMC brings several advantages, especially for exporters in the NCR region.
With an RCMC, you can access export benefits, avoid delays at customs, and get recognized as an authentic exporter. Many DGFT-based schemes also require an RCMC, especially if you want to apply for incentives in the Foreign Trade Policy.
