<h1>New Customs Rules for Food Imports: Testing Required, Exceptions for Hotels; Compliance Emphasized Under Food Adulteration Act.</h1> The circular outlines the procedures for customs clearance of food consignments under the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954, and other relevant laws. It mandates testing of food items before clearance, with exceptions for perishable items imported directly by hotels, which can be cleared based on checks and certificates from recognized labs. Customs must conduct general checks for storage conditions, physical appearance, and labeling compliance. If Port Health Officers are unavailable, samples must be tested by authorized labs. The circular also emphasizes compliance with additional regulations and rescinds a previous circular, requiring public notice of these instructions.
