What is Spice Board Registration (CRES)?

The Spices Board of India, under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, regulates the export of 52 scheduled spices from India. Any individual or business entity intending to export spices must obtain a Certificate of Registration as Exporter of Spices (CRES).
