Procedure for movement of containerized import cargo form Port Terminal to different Container Freight Stations (CFSs) under Kolkata (Port) - Implementation of CFS and Gate Module under ICES Version 1.5.

Movement of containerised imports now governed by ICES v1.5 CFS and Gate modules with bonded auto debits and electronic gate controls.

ICES Version 1.5 introduces CFS and Gate modules at Kolkata (Port) requiring MLOs and CFS operators to register yearly renewable continuity bonds (CO by MLOs; TR by CFSs). IGM filing will carry CFS and bond details to trigger auto debiting of bond amounts and generation of a system 'Movement No.' Customs officers approve movements in ICES; Gate Module entries at terminal and CFS create gate passes and effect automatic TR bond recredit on receipt, while CO bond recredit and cancellation are reconciled by the Container Cell on submission of export details.
