Post-shipment Audit

Customs PCA + GST audit + RBI FRC tracking

Post-shipment Audit sits in the Compliance phase of TradeOS — Vinod Kumar Jain's 30-year operational lens on cross-border trade.

RBI FRC (Foreign Realisation Certificate) closes the export-payment loop. Typical size: No fee; potential demand on issues. Typical time: PCA: T+12 mo · FRC: at realisation. Multilateral coverage: 197 countries × 273 FTAs × 28 blocs × 37 corridors.
