CHENNAI:
In a move that will help movement of essential goods and commodities through customs following the lockdown due to Covid 19 Pandemic, the Union Finance Ministry has allowed importers and customs brokers to give electronic out of charge copies of bill of entry and eGatepass from April 15.
This will ease the difficulties posed during the Covid 19 pandemic by reducing interface or contact with authorities and will enable easier movement of goods to move out of customs areas after checks, besides reducing costs, a customs official told Express.
The official said that this is a big boost to expedite trade and prevent corruption
. "Now Customs Department will be working with International standards," the official said.
The circular by Central Board of Indirec Taxes and Customs, which was issued to all Principal Chief Commissioners of Customs on Monday states that the specific measures that reduce interface between the Customs authorities and the importers, exporters and Customs Brokers are especially relevant in these challenging times, to tackle the scourge of Covid-19 pandemic.
"This electronic passes will replace physically signed documents and do away with the requirement of taking bulky printouts from the service centre, and maintenance of voluminous physical dockets in the customs houses," the circular stated.
