Coastal cargo exemption requires manifest filing when using berths shared with import/export traffic and permits random checks. Vessels carrying exclusively coastal goods are exempted from filing Bills of Coastal Goods, obtaining port clearance, filing shipping bills and related formalities, but when operating from berths used by import or export vessels they must file arrival and departure cargo manifests under Section 30 and Section 41. Preventive officers may, with supervisory approval, conduct random checks to ensure no import or export goods are loaded on such coastal vessels; officers are directed to adhere to these requirements.
