Mizoram's businesses range from the wholesale markets, service firms and contractors of Aizawl and Lunglei to farming, handloom and bamboo in the districts, with goods coming in from Assam by road and rail, and border trade with Myanmar and Bangladesh. One GST registration covers your business across the State; add branches or godowns in other districts as additional places of business.
Your application is assigned either to the Mizoram State Taxation Department or to the Central GST (CBIC) administration based on your address, and the jurisdiction is printed on your registration certificate. Either way, the process is the same and fully online.

Wholesale & retail trade
Shops, wholesalers and distributors in Mizoram must register once turnover crosses ₹20 lakh, the limit for goods in Mizoram (₹10 lakh if they also supply services). Most stock comes from Assam and other States, and a GSTIN lets you claim input tax credit on it.
Border trade & exports
Exporters and traders in Mizoram sending goods to Myanmar or Bangladesh through the Zokhawthar or Kawrpuichhuah land customs stations need GST registration and an Import Export Code. Exports go out without tax under a Letter of Undertaking (LUT).
Handloom & puan weaving
Handloom weavers, puan makers and handicraft traders in Mizoram register once turnover crosses ₹20 lakh. Artisans selling handicraft goods to other States can do so without registration up to ₹10 lakh in Mizoram.

Why GST applications from Mizoram get stuck, and how we prevent it
- AddressAddress proof doesn't matchThe house number, locality or PIN on the electricity bill or property papers differs from the application. We match them before filing.
- Land papersLSC or patta in someone else's nameIf the land is still recorded in a parent's or grandparent's name, add the owner's consent letter and ID. We check the LSC or patta before uploading.
- AadhaarAadhaar authentication skippedWithout it, the officer can order a site visit and approval can take up to 30 days. We complete it on day one.
- PhotosUnclear photos of the premisesOfficers often ask for a photo showing the name board and the building. We tell you exactly what to click.
- LimitWaiting for ₹40 lakhMany businesses in Mizoram wait for the ₹40 lakh limit they read about online. Here the limit is ₹20 lakh for goods and ₹10 lakh for services, and late registration means tax, interest and penalty on past sales.
- CodesWrong HSN/SAC or business typeChoosing the wrong codes or constitution leads to queries later. We select them based on what you actually sell.
- QueriesMissing the 7-day reply windowAn unanswered query (REG-03) leads to rejection. We reply within the deadline, with no extra fee.

The limits in Mizoram are lower than in most of India: registration is compulsory once aggregate turnover crosses ₹20 lakh for businesses supplying only goods, or ₹10 lakh for services or mixed supplies. Sellers of goods to other States and e-commerce sellers of goods across States must register from the first sale.
Which documents are needed for GST registration in Mizoram?+
PAN and Aadhaar of the proprietor, partners or directors, a photograph, bank proof, and proof of your business address in Mizoram: a recent electricity bill from the Power & Electricity Department, a Land Settlement Certificate (LSC) or periodic patta, or a house pass, with the owner's consent if the property is in a family member's name. For rented premises, add the rent agreement.
What is the GST state code for Mizoram?+
15. Every GSTIN issued to a business registered in Mizoram, including one in Mizoram, starts with 15, followed by the PAN of the business.
How can I get a GST number in Mizoram?+
Share your PAN, Aadhaar, photo, address proof and bank details with us on WhatsApp. We file Form GST REG-01 online, you confirm an Aadhaar OTP, and the department issues your 15-digit GSTIN starting with 15 and the registration certificate.
Why is the GST registration limit lower in Mizoram?+
Mizoram is one of the four special category States (with Manipur, Nagaland and Tripura) where the limit for service providers is ₹10 lakh instead of ₹20 lakh. For goods, Mizoram uses ₹20 lakh; the ₹40 lakh limit that applies in most States does not apply here.
Can I register GST from my home in Mizoram?+
Yes. Your house can be the principal place of business, with an electricity bill, house pass or LSC, and a consent letter if the house is in a family member's name. Keep a small name board for any verification.
Can a small business in Mizoram choose the composition scheme?+
Yes. In Mizoram, traders and manufacturers with turnover up to ₹75 lakh can opt for composition and pay 1% of turnover (5% for restaurants), and service providers up to ₹50 lakh pay 6%. You can't collect GST from customers or claim input tax credit, and goods can't be sold to other States.
Is there profession tax in Mizoram?+
Yes. Mizoram levies Profession Tax under the Mizoram Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Taxation Act, 1995. Businesses and professionals enrol with the State Taxation Department, and employers deduct PT from salaries. It is separate from GST; we can help with both.
Can I sell on Amazon or Flipkart from Mizoram without GST?+
Only within Mizoram. Small sellers supplying goods only within their own State can sell through marketplaces with an enrolment number instead of GST below the limit. To sell to buyers in other States through Amazon, Flipkart or Meesho, you need GST registration from the first sale.
Do I need a separate GST registration for a branch in another district of Mizoram?+
No. One GST registration covers the whole State. A shop, godown or office in another district of Mizoram is added as an additional place of business. You need a separate registration only for another State.
I have an office in Mizoram and another in Assam. Is one GST registration enough?+
No. GST registration is State-wise. Your Mizoram premises are registered in Mizoram (GSTIN starting 15) and the Assam office needs its own registration (starting 18), under the same PAN.
When are GST returns due for a business in Mizoram?+
Monthly filers submit GSTR-1 by the 11th and GSTR-3B by the 20th of the next month. Small taxpayers under the QRMP scheme in Mizoram file GSTR-3B by the 24th of the month after the quarter. Composition dealers file CMP-08 by the 18th after each quarter.

GST doesn't need one, but Mizoram has its own rules on trading: non-tribal traders usually need a trading licence, and Aizawl Municipal Corporation and Lunglei Municipal Council license many kinds of shops. A licence is also useful supporting proof of your place of business.
Which GST office handles a business in Mizoram?+
