<h1>Central Board of Indirect Taxes & Customs Moves to Paperless Customs: PDF Shipping Bills and e-Gatepass Now Mandatory.</h1> The circular from the Central Board of Indirect Taxes & Customs announces the transition to paperless customs processes, effective June 22, 2020. It mandates the electronic transmission of PDF-based Shipping Bills and e-Gatepass documents to exporters and customs brokers, eliminating the need for physical printouts. This initiative aims to enhance efficiency and security, reduce costs, and facilitate ease of business. The electronic documents will feature digitally signed QR codes for authenticity verification. Exceptions for printouts will be considered in specific scenarios by the respective customs authorities. The circular also emphasizes mandatory electronic document uploads for export processes.
