Do I require TIN or ECC or EIN or CIN or TAN based on my business as proprietor doing export ?

 

Being a Sole proprietor the nature of the transaction would be:-

making or purchasing products from India and then selling to other countries either through visiting at that country's trade fair or transporting the product directly to that country's retail shops. 

What are the below things which I will definitely require based on the above business layout?

 

Trade Identification Number (TIN

Excise Control Code (ECC)

Employee Identification Number (EIN)

Company Identification Number is often substituted with (CIN) (Challan Identification Number)

TAN (Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number)  [only require if I am hiring an employee regardless of Proprietorship or Pvt Ltd]

 

There is another TIN (Trade Identification Number) is a unique identification number required for every business enterprise registered under VAT. But if VAT is abolished or replaced with GST then do I require TIN (Trade Identification Number) ?

-- VAT is abolished or still exists, Do GST already include VAT ?

Sole propreitor is a very difficult form of organization here export is not easily possible.

As far as I know, following required,

1. GST Number

2. Import-Export Code

3. Register with FIEO or any other export promotion council

4. e-RCMC

Ok I understood but there are three other things, can you please confirm that?

Being a proprietor conducting export business do I required to follow this also or not (apart from the one which you replied with)

1) Shops and Establishment Act License [I don't know if it still exists and if I require it or not ?]

2) Registration for sales tax license [I am not sure if it still exists after GST introduce in 2017]

3) Udyam Registration (former name – “Udyog Aadhaar or MSME”) [I think this is optional and usefull if want to avail government benefits on conducting business.]

If you have a establishment or office it shall be registered under Shops and Establishment Act.

MSME registration is optional. based on your business you can see if incentives are worthwhile.

Do I request to have a "sales tax license" Does this still exist or abolished [I am not sure if it still exists after GST introduce in 2017] ?

on the following post

https://www.caclubindia.com/forum/does-somebody-require-shops-amp-establishment-act-license-being-a-proprietor-for-export--595102.asp

I am getting a reply that "Shop & Establishment Act license" and "Professional tax ID and certificate" is mandatory but when I am reading another website then for S&E it says that "S&E only requires if I am hiring employees".

My situation will be : starting a proprietor export business run by me alone (not hiring any full-time employee only giving CA or Audit work to external CA on Fee-based). 

I will be not taking any building or office for this and just sitting at my house bedroom with my laptop and smartphone (for conducting export business conversations). Along with this setup I may visit trade to other countries and sell via a trade-fair stall.

I am not understanding do I really require a "Shop & Establishment act license governed by state" ?

Another thing "Do i really require a Professional tax" ID and & its certificate ID. And if I really required to pay Professional tax on my Income ? Because when I was working in an MNC company as an employee then my company was paying TDS and they didn't give me any Professional tax ID or its certificate ID so I don't know where to get this Professional Tax id or certificate if it is mandatory for me.
