4.2.            Certification of other agencies involved in export clearance such as Cotton Textiles Export Promotion Council, Wildlife Inspection Agency under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), Engineering Export Promotion Council, Agricultural Produce Export Development Agency (APEDA), Central Silk Board, All India Handicraft Board, Assistant Drug Controller, Archaeological of Survey India should also be obtained on the Export invoice since the Shipping Bill will no longer be available for such pre-shipment certification.  The transitional arrangements for certification by these agencies would continue as in the case of AEPC certification.  The No Objection of Asst. Drug Controller will also be obtained on the Export Invoice itself.

4.3.            The Exporters may make use of export invoice or such other document as required by the Octroi Authorities for the purpose of Octroi exemption, since the Shipping Bill is generated only after the let export order is given by Customs.

5.                  ARRIVAL OF GOODS AT AIR CARGO COMPLEX, MEENAMBAKKAM.

5.1              The goods brought for the purpose of examination and subsequent “ let export” will be allowed entry to the Air Cargo Complex on the strength of the Air Way Bill, carting order issued by the Airline, checklist and declaration. The checklist and Annex. C should bear the Shipping Bill No. and date given by the Service Centre. Air India (ground handling agent) will not insist on production of Shipping Bills to allow the goods into the Air Cargo Terminal. If at any stage subsequent to entry of goods in the Air Cargo Terminal it is found that the Shipping Bill had not been filed, the Exporter and his CHA will be solely responsible for the delay in processing the documents for export and any consequent damage / deterioration/pilferage in respect of the export goods. After entry the Exporter or CHA will present the goods to Air India in the usual manner, for payment of terminal charges etc.

6.                  PROCESSING OF SHIPPING BILLS

6.1.     The Shipping Bills shall be processed by the system on the basis of declarations made by the Exporters.  However, the following Shipping Bills shall automatically appear on the screen of the Asst. Commissioner, who shall confirm the processing: -

1.      Duty free Shipping Bills for FOB value above Rs. 10 Lakhs.

2.      Free Trade Sample Shipping Bills for FOB value above Rs.25,000/-

3.      Drawback Shipping Bills where drawback amount is more than Rs. One Lac.

6.2              Apart from verifying the value and other particulars for assessment, the Assistant Commissioner may call for the samples, if required for confirming the declared value or for checking classification under the Drawback Schedule.  The Assistant Commissioner may also give any special instruction for examination of goods, if felt necessary.

6.3              The Exporters/CHAs can check up with the query counter at Service Centre whether the Shipping Bill submitted by them in the system has been cleared by the Asst. Commissioner or not, before the goods are brought into the export Shed for examination and export.  In case any query has been raised by the Asst. Commissioner, the same is required to be replied through the service centre or in case of CHAs having EDI connectivity through their respective terminals.  The Shipping Bill will be passed by the Asst. Commissioner after all the queries have been satisfactorily replied to.

7.                  CUSTOMS EXAMINATION OF EXPORT CARGO

7.1              After payment of handling charges the Exporter or his CHA would bring the goods to the export shed and contact any Customs officers designated for the purpose of receipt of goods at Export Shed.   He should present the checklist and declaration along with all the original documents such as the Airway Bill, Invoice and Packing list.  He will also present the details of additional particulars listed out in the Annex. C of this Public Notice.  The examining officer will enter the additional particulars and mark the Electronic Shipping bill and all original documents to the Appraiser of the Export Shed who will assign an examining officer for the shipment and intimate the officer’s name and the packages to be examined on the checklist and return to the Exporter or his CHA.  No such examination order shall be given unless the goods have been physically brought in the Export Shed.

7.2              The examining Officer will inspect/examine the shipment as per the instructions, if any, and enters his report in the system.  There will be no need for a written examination report.  He will then mark the Electronic Shipping Bill along with all original documents and to the Appraiser of the Export Shed. If the Appraiser is satisfied that the particulars entered in the system conform to the description given in the original documents and the physical examination, he will proceed to give “Let Export Order” for the shipment and inform the Exporter or his CHA. The checklist and the declaration along with all original documents will be retained by the Appraiser. In case of any variation between the declaration in the Shipping Bill and physical documents / examination report, the Appraiser of the shed will mark the Electronic Shipping Bill to the Assistant Commissioner of Customs (Exports). He will also forward the physical documents to Assistant Commissioner of Customs (Exports) and instruct the Exporter or his CHA to meet the Assistant Commissioner. In case the Exporter agrees with the views of the Department the Shipping Bill would be processed accordingly. Where however the Exporter disputes the views of the Department, principles of natural justice would need to be followed before finalising the issue.

8.                  GeneRAtion of Shipping Bills

8.1.            After the ‘Let Export’ order is given on the system by the Appraiser of export shed, the Shipping Bill shall be generated by the system in three copies i.e. one custom copy, one Exporter’s copy and one E.P. copy.  After obtaining the printout the Appraiser (Export Shed) shall obtain the signatures of the E.O./P.O. on the examination report and the representative of the CHA on the Shipping Bill and Examination report.  The CHA’s representative’s name and identity card number should be clearly mentioned below his signatures.  The Appraiser Shed shall thereafter sign the Shipping Bill at the specified space.

8.2.         As regards the AEPC quota and other certifications, these will be retained along with the Shipping Bills in the Export Shed after the Shipping Bill is generated by the system.  At the time of examination, apart from checking that the goods are covered by the quota certifications, the details of the quota entered into the system would also be checked.
 

9.                  AUTHENTICATION OF DOCUMENT
 

9.1              The Exporter or his CHA should produce two copies of the Shipping Bill and G.R.1 form to the Appraiser of the export shed for signature.  The Appraiser should sign and stamp the original copy of the Shipping Bill and the G.R.1 Form.  This will be retained along with the original declarations.  He will return the second copy of the G.R.1 form and the unsigned second copy (E/P copy) of the Shipping Bill to the Exporter or his CHA for handing over the goods to the Airlines.  The second copy of the Shipping Bill and the G.R.1 form will be authenticated only after the goods have been exported and Export General Manifest is returned from the airline.

10.      PAYMENT OF MERCHANT OVERTIME (MOT)           

10.1          For the time being the present manual system in respect of payment of Merchant Over Time (MOT) charges will be continued.

10.2          It may be clarified here that merchant overtime is required to be paid by the Exporter/CHAs only when the goods are examined by the customs officers for allowing let export beyond the normal office hours.  No merchant overtime is required to be paid if the Exporter only wants the goods to be entered in the examination area of the export shed for meeting quota deadlines.  This would effectively imply that MOT is required to be recovered only if the examination/let export is carried out on Sundays and other Holidays.  No MOT is required to be paid on normal working days when the examination itself is being done for let export upto 10.00 P.M. in the night.  The Exporters do not require any permission from Customs for bringing in the goods on normal working days after the Customs working hours are over.

11.       DRAWAL OF SAMPLES

11.1      Where the Appraiser of Customs orders for samples to be drawn and tested, the Examining Officers will proceed to draw two samples from the consignment and enter the particulars thereof along with details of the testing agency in the ICES.  There will be no separate register for recording dates of samples drawn.  Three copies of the test memo will be prepared by the Examining Officer and will be signed by the Examining Officer and Appraiser on behalf of Customs and the Exporter or his CHA.  The disposal  of the three copies of the test memo are as follows:

i.                     Original – to be sent along with the sample to the test agency.

ii.                   Duplicate – Customs copy to be retained with the second sample.

iii.                  Triplicate – Exporter’s copy.

11.2          The Asstt. Commissioner, if he deems necessary, may also order for sample to be drawn for purposes other than testing such as visual inspection and verification of description, market value enquiry etc.

12.           QUERIES

            With the discontinuance of the assessment in the Export Department, it is anticipated that there will not be any queries since any doubt can be clarified by the Exporter or his CHA during examination.  However, in a rare case where the need arises for a detailed answer from the Exporters, a query can be raised by the Examining Officer or the Appraiser in the system, which should be confirmed by the Assistant Commissioner of Customs-Exports.  The shipping bill will remain pending and cannot be printed till the Exporter’s reply is seen and accepted by the Customs department.

13.  AMENDMENTS

13.1    Any  corrections/amendments in the checklist generated after the submission of declaration can be made at the Service Centre provided the documents have not yet been submitted in the system and the Shipping Bill Number has not been generated.  Where corrections are required to made after the generation of the Shipping Bill No. or after the goods have been brought into the Export Shed, amendments will be carried out in the following manner.

a.                If the goods have not yet been allowed “let export”, amendment may be permitted by the Assistant Commissioner (Exports).

b.                Where the “let export” order has already been given, amendments may be permitted only by the Additional Commissioner, Air Cargo Complex, Meenambakkam.

13.2    In both the cases, after the permission for amendments has been granted, the Assistant Commissioner will approve the amendments on the system on behalf of the Additional Commissioner, ACC, Meenambakkam.  Where the print out of the Shipping Bill has already been generated, the Exporter will first surrender all copies of the Shipping Bill to the Appraiser (Export Shed ) for cancellation before amendment is approved on the system.

14.        SHUT OUT AND CANCELLATION     

            All permissions for shut out and cancellation of export consignments shall be given by the Asst. Commissioner on the computer system on the basis of an application made by the Exporter/CHA in this behalf.  The application shall be accompanied by a “no objection” from the concerned Airlines.  The Shipping Bill and the corresponding airway bill particulars would need to be cancelled in the system before allowing shut out/cancellation.  In case the shipment sought to be shut out/cancelled is a part of “consolidated cargo” against a single Airway Bill, the Assistant Commissioner should check the status of the EXPORT GENERAL MANIFEST corresponding to the particular airway bill before allowing shut out/cancellation.  In case the EXPORT GENERAL MANIFEST has been filed but drawback against the shipping bill is not yet sanctioned, the concerned shipping bill should be cancelled so that drawback is disallowed.  Where however the drawback has been sanctioned against the Shipping Bill consequent to the filing of EXPORT GENERAL MANIFEST, the party should be asked to pay back the amount of drawback sanctioned before allowing shut out/cancellation.

15.              CHANGE OF AIRLINES / AMENDMENT OF FREIGHT AMOUNT

15.1          Any request from the Exporter/CHA for change in the name of the Airlines by which the goods are to be exported after the let export has been allowed, can be considered only if there is no change in the Airway Bill, that is, where export would be made by the changed airline on the basis of the airway bill issued by the previous airlines.  If the freight amount undergoes a change consequent to the change of airlines, corresponding changes would also need to be made in the Shipping Bill with the approval of Assistant Commissioner of Customs (Export).  Where however the consignment is proposed to be sent by a different airlines (than the one which has been specified in the Shipping Bill allowed let export) by issue of a new airway bill, the old Shipping Bill would have to be cancelled and the process of filing the Shipping Bill started afresh.  The change of Airlines would be permitted only with the approval of the Appraiser.

15.2          In cases where the export consignment is on CIF or C&F basis, the airline concerned shall not amend freight charges after the Let Export order has been given by the customs without prior permission of Additional/Deputy Commissioner of Customs and necessary amendment of freight charges is made on shipping bill.

15.3          The Exporter/CHA shall report to Assistant Commissioner of Customs and get the Shipping Bill amended if there is any change in Freight or Insurance amount after the Let Export order is given by Customs.  Non intimation of such changes may amount to misdeclaration and may attract penal action under the Customs Act, 1962.

16.              RECONSTRUCTION OF LOST DOCUMENTS

            No duplicate print out of EDI Shipping Bills will be generated if Shipping Bill is lost, since extra copy of Shipping Bills are liable to be misused.  A certificate will be issued by the Customs stating that “let export order” has been allowed on the system to enable the goods to be accepted by the airlines for export.  It is the option of the Airlines to accept the same at the time of lifting the goods.  Drawback will be sanctioned on the basis of the let export order already recorded on the system.  Only G.R.1 will be allowed to be reconstructed if the original is still available with the department.

17.        RE-PRINT OF SHIPPING BILLS

            Re-prints of Shipping Bills are ordinarily not allowed since the extra copies of the Shipping Bills can be misused.  However, where there is a system failure and as a result of which the print out after let export order has not been generated or there is a misprint, re-print of the same will be allowed only after permission is granted by the Additional Commissioner, ACC, Meenambakkam.

18.              EXPORT OF GOODS UNDER CLAIM FOR DRAWBACK

B).  It would not be possible to accept any shipment for export under claim for Drawback in case the account number of the Exporter in the bank is not indicated in the declaration form.

18.4             The Exporters are also required to give their account number along with the details of the bank through which the export proceeds are to be realised.

20.              EXPORT GENERAL MANIFEST                        

20.1          All the airlines shall furnish the Export General Manifests, House airway Bill wise, to the Customs electronically.  In the beginning, the airlines are required to enter the manifest in the Customs Computer System through the service Centre on payment of the prescribed fee.  (In due course, an EDI server shall be installed for the electronic delivery of Export General Manifest through EDI service providers.  Till such time, all the EGMs will have to be entered through the service Centre only).  After the entry of EGMs a checklist will be generated which has to be signed by Airline certifying the correctness of data.  Airlines are also required to give the details of House Airway Bill in the EGMs submitted by them.  The Airlines shall be liable for penal action, if incorrect or incomplete EGMs are submitted.  It has been decided that the Service Centre would be charging a flat fee of Rs.60/- per EXPORT GENERAL MANIFEST irrespective of the number of entries.  The Service Centre would be receiving the EGMs for data entry between 9 AM to 11 AM and 6 PM to 11PM.

20.2          Apart from lodging the EXPORT GENERAL MANIFEST electronically the airlines would continue to file manual EGMs along with the duplicate copies of the Shipping Bills as per the present practice.  Since the disbursement of Drawback to the Exporters would be dependent, on the filing of EGMs by the airlines, all the airlines are advised to file the EGMs soon after the aircraft has departed.  The manual EGMs would be entered in the register at the IFO/EFO Centre and the airlines are advised to obtain acknowledgements indicating the date and time at which the EGMs were received by the EFO.
