Hello,

I had purchased a wrist watch from US online & it got delivered to me. later i received a letter from commissioner of postal appraising section, 1st floor, videsh dak bhavan, Ballard estate, mumbai.

they are asking me to pay some differential amount around 12000. My parcel packet number tracking was starting with MP.

Now i received 1st reminder again. but they dont send details like where i need to pay the amount or any phone mumber or any email address to contact. i have to pay the amount but not sure to whom & from where i can do that. i live in Pune. is there any online payment gateway? or do i have to go to mumbai?
or can i send any cheque with my relatives if they need pysical attendance?

Hello Sir,

I did called the ice gate customer care but no luck. They said i cannot pay it online & will have to go to Mumbai physically. i again told them the parcel was delivered to me in 2015 and now i am receiving letters to pay differential duty. Can you please guide me for the online payment please.

If in case online payment is not possible, is the below address correct? whom to meet & where to go i don't have any idea & am not receiving any proper help/information from any of friends. Please help.

Top of the letter this address is present : office of Deputy commissioner of customs postal, appraising section, 1st floor, videsh dak bhawan, ballard estate, fort, mumbai

Visit any office of Central Excise, Customs Service Tax nearby your residence. Any CE Range or Division. Central Excise, Customs & Service Tax department is one. The staff is posted from Central Excise to customs & vice versa.Locate address from google and visit personally. Your problem will solved by contacting any officer personally. This is no problem. Have you visited any office personally ? ?

Hello Sir, No, i have not visited the office personally as it's in mumbai & i live in Pune. i googled a lot but did not find satisfactory results on where i need to visit in case i receive this kind of letter.

i never visited mumbai & dont know where actually i am supposed to go. ill have to take leave which in my current profession they don't allow a single leave. that's why i was concerned and wanted to pay online. i am actually stuck due to my office night shifts & no leaves.

You can take short leave and visit any Central Excise Office in Pune near your office or residence. Visit Range or Division office.Address is available on Google or CBEC site.
