Digitization of bonded warehouse procedures enables online licensing, transfer processing, and electronic submission of monthly returns. Digitization implements an online Warehouse Module on ICEGATE enabling authorised signatories to file warehouse license applications and upload supporting documents, permitting backend processing by proper officers including queries and issuance of a warehouse code upon acceptance. The module also handles online transfer requests across ownership and warehouse-change scenarios with validation of parties, reconciliation of quantity and value, and requirement of the warehousing (triple duty) bond. Scanned monthly returns may be uploaded and web-form filing will follow; prescribed security must continue to be furnished at the port of import alongside the warehousing bond.
