29 July 2011 We are in the business of providing "Software Development & Testing" services in NON-PHYSICAL form. Our monthly invoices are of value around $15000. I have heard that, for export values less than $25000, you are not required to declare the value on SOFTEX. Does it mean that we are not required to submit SOFTEX form with STPI?
