Dual Use NOC for Import – Dual NOC from CDSCO

Importing items that have both civilian and military applications—commonly referred to as dual-use goods—requires a special authorization from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) in India. This permission is known as the Dual Use NOC for Import.

The Dual Use NOC is mandatory for products that fall under the SCOMET (Special Chemicals, Organisms, Materials, Equipment and Technologies) list. These include high-end electronics, chemicals, communication equipment, and software that may be repurposed for defense or strategic use. Obtaining this NOC ensures compliance with national security laws and international trade agreements like the Wassenaar Arrangement.

To apply, importers must submit a detailed application along with supporting documents such as the Importer Exporter Code (IEC), purchase invoice, technical data sheet, and an end-use certificate. The DGFT reviews the application and may seek clarifications before issuing the NOC.

The process typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the nature of the product and the completeness of documentation. Delays often occur due to incorrect classification or incomplete technical details.

We offer expert consultancy services to help you secure your Dual Use NOC quickly and efficiently. Our team handles end-to-end documentation, technical classification, and DGFT correspondence—ensuring smooth and timely approvals.

Whether you’re a manufacturer, trader, or research institute, we can simplify the import compliance process for dual-use items. Contact us today for professional support in getting your Dual Use Import NOC without hassle.

Dual Use NOC from CDSCO – Baba Sahib Consultancy

Many substances classified as drugs under Indian regulations are not always used for medicinal purposes. Various industries—including chemicals, textiles, food processing, and packaging—often require such substances for manufacturing. However, due to strict drug laws and regulatory controls imposed by the CDSCO (Central Drugs Standard Control Organization), these industries face restrictions in procuring and using such materials.

These limitations are often based on the nature of the drug, potential health risks, toxicity, or the quantity involved in the process. To facilitate non-medicinal industrial use, the CDSCO Zonal Offices offer a solution in the form of a Dual Use NOC (No Objection Certificate).

At Baba Sahib Consultancy, we specialize in helping businesses and manufacturers obtain the Dual Use NOC from CDSCO seamlessly. The application is submitted online via the CDSCO SUGAM portal, and the NOC is issued by the Assistant Drug Controller after thorough document review and justification of non-pharmaceutical use.

Our expert team ensures:

Accurate documentation

Technical justification

Regulatory compliance

End-to-end guidance

Whether you’re in manufacturing, food tech, or chemical processing, we help you legally procure restricted drug substances for industrial applications.
