According to my view, permission for stuffing is required in SEZ, you can approach good CHA to get it done.

My view is that factory stuffing permission not required for SEZ cargo since

customs clearance of shipping bill / cargo examination / sealing of container are being done at

SEZ by customs officers posted there for this purpose.

SEZ cargo can directly go to Port for loading on vessel.

AI Summary

Factory stuffing permission for SEZ shipments: whether required affects logistics and customs procedure for export cargo.
Whether factory stuffing permission is required for SEZ shipments: one view advises obtaining permission via a Customs House Agent, while the contrary view holds that SEZ cargo need not obtain separate stuffing permission because customs clearance, cargo examination and container sealing are performed within the SEZ, allowing direct movement to port; no documentary authority is supplied.
