DGFT and export licensing
Our products — primarily RIDGID industrial pipe tools, drain cleaning equipment, and hand tools — are general-purpose industrial goods. Most do not require a special export licence under the Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) 2023. Where any item falls under the Special Chemicals, Organisms, Materials, Equipment and Technologies (SCOMET) list (Appendix 3, Schedule 2 of ITC-HS), the appropriate export authorisation will be obtained from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) before dispatch.
