Certificate of inspection: In order to ensure superior quality of goods, the government has made an inspection of certain goods compulsory by some authorised agency like Export Inspection Council of India (EICI). After inspecting the goods, the agency issues the certificate of inspection that consignment has been inspected as required under the Export (Quality Control and Inspection ) Act, 1963.

3. Packing list: This document is in the form of a statement regarding the number of cases or packs and the details of the goods contained in these packs. It provides complete details regarding the goods exported and the forms in which they are being sent.

4. Certificate of origin: This certificate specifies the country in which the goods are manufactured. This certificate enables the importer to claim tariff concessions or other exemptions. This certificate is also required in cases where there is a ban on imports of some goods from certain countries.
