Bonded warehouse licensing authority clarified: Commissioners handle general cases while assistant/deputy retain jurisdiction for EOUs. The Board reaffirms that licensing of public and private bonded warehouses and permissions for in-bond manufacturing are generally to be considered and decided at the level of Commissioners to ensure uniformity and prevent misuse; however, applications concerning export-oriented units (EOUs) shall continue to be considered and decided by the Assistant Commissioner or Deputy Commissioner of Customs.
