Merchant Exporter Must Provide Proof of Export Under CT-1 Bond, Not Manufacturer A discussion on a forum revolves around the requirement for proof of export under the CT-1 bond when goods are exported through a merchant exporter. The central issue is whether the manufacturer or the merchant exporter is responsible for providing proof of export to the excise department. Participants agree that the merchant exporter, who executes the bond, is primarily responsible for submitting the proof of export, such as customs-endorsed ARE-1 forms, Bill of Lading, and other relevant documents. Manufacturers are generally not required to provide these documents unless specifically requested by the department. The discussion emphasizes the procedural responsibilities of the merchant exporter in fulfilling export obligations.
