<h1>New Procedures for Export-Import Cargo Transhipment via Gateway Ports Under Customs Rules</h1> The circular establishes procedures for transhipment of export and import cargo through designated gateway ports, allowing export containers from smaller ports to be shipped via gateway ports like Chennai and JNPT. Import transhipment requires application and permission under existing regulations. Export shipping bills must indicate the gateway port and comply with bond execution conditions, with drawback payable upon shipping bill clearance and shipment at the originating port, subject to proof of export within 90 days. Detailed procedures for documentation, examination, sealing, and endorsement of shipping bills and containers are prescribed, including maintenance of registers and supervision by customs officers. Modifications to earlier public notices remove certain requirements such as naming the mother vessel and master's endorsement on transference copies, while maintaining other procedural safeguards. The circular aims to streamline cargo movement, ensure compliance, and facilitate export benefits processing.
