IDPMS, EDPMS and FEMA compliance software, made in India: Foreign trade paperwork, finally in one place.
Every import, export, merchanting and services transaction, from the first invoice to the closed IDPMS / EDPMS entry, with the bank letters, forms and FX rates along the way. Your ERP keeps the books; FxLayer takes the foreign side.
Free workspace · no card needed. ERP connectors come with Enterprise.
Sample workspace with illustrative names. The bar fills as the record moves; the pulse marks the step waiting on you.
Foreign trade is three jobs at once: the goods, the money and the paperwork that proves they match
The goods move through customs, the money through an AD bank, and the proof through IDPMS, EDPMS, the GST portal and the income-tax portal. Nothing connects them, so people do, by hand, in spreadsheets and email. This is where most Indian trading companies stand today. Hover a card to see what FxLayer does about it.
The bank's IDPMS list never matches ours
Bills of Entry the bank says are open were paid months ago, through an invoice nobody linked to them.
→ Every payment is matched to its Bill of Entry or Shipping Bill by reference; the EDPMS / IDPMS check reconciles the bank's outstanding list against yours.
Every request letter is typed again
Form A1, A2, the covering letter, the declaration: the same particulars re-keyed for every remittance, and the bank still sends it back.
→ Letters and forms are a short questionnaire; only what the records cannot answer is asked. Your letterhead, the bank's format.
Export proceeds slip past nine months
Nobody counts the realisation window per Shipping Bill, so the extension letter goes late and the buyer ends up on the caution list.
→ A countdown on every Shipping Bill in calendar months, the reminder and extension letters ready at thirty days, the restricted-buyer register kept for you.
Form 145 or 146, Part A or Part C?
Each services payment abroad raises the same question, and the CA's answer arrives after the bank's deadline.
→ The worksheet decides the part from the invoice, the treaty papers and the amount; a listed CA files it from the same worksheet.
The FX rate is whatever the bank quoted
The card rate hides the spread; nobody compares banks on the day, so the margin leaks on every deal.
→ The FX board prices every AD bank against the mid for the request in hand, books the deal and stamps the rate on the remittance.
Three systems, one spreadsheet, zero audit trail
ERP, customs portal and bank statements are reconciled by hand in a workbook that only one person understands.
→ One record per transaction with its invoices, customs documents, remittances and attachments, every change audit-logged, exportable any time.
What does the bank’s margin cost you in a year?
The margin is the gap between the interbank mid-rate and the rate your bank books. Enter your own numbers; nothing is sent anywhere.
Illustrative: margin × volume × 12. Actual quotes depend on the bank, the amount, the time of day and your relationship. FxLayer shows every AD bank’s quote against the mid for the payment in hand; it does not promise a rate.

Every AD bank, from the first letter
Letters and forms (request letter, Form A1 / A2, closure, extension, EDF) go on your letterhead to any AD bank. A bank’s own format is set once from a sample letter. API connections use your own credentials from the bank.

API connections are on Enterprise and go live once the bank has onboarded you and the connection test reaches it. Bank statements (MT940) and IEDPMS files can also be emailed to your workspace.
An ecosystem with the client in the middle
FxLayer is not another portal to log in to. It sits between the people and systems you already deal with and keeps them in step: your ERP sends the invoices, ICEGATE the customs documents, your AD bank the rates and the remittances, your CA the filings, your partner the oversight. Every one of them is a connection on the diagram, and every connection is something you switch on, not something we switch on for you.
