Under the advance license scheme, can we export the goods under self sealing method as against the superintendent of excise inspection and sealing. Is there any circular which clearly states this rule on sealing the export goods. Thanks for giving the feedback.

Self-Sealing Permitted for Exports Under Certain Conditions; Circular No. 736/52/2003-CX and 952/13/2011-CX Guidelines Apply A query was raised regarding the possibility of exporting goods under the self-sealing method instead of Central Excise inspection under the advance license scheme. Responses indicated that self-sealing is permissible under certain conditions. Circular No. 736/52/2003-CX allows self-sealing for all manufacturer-exporters, while Circular No. 952/13/2011-CX provides guidelines for self-sealing and Central Excise sealing options. It was advised that while self-sealing is possible, Central Excise sealing is preferable for export promotion schemes. The choice between self-sealing and Central Excise sealing depends on the nature of goods and convenience, with customs examinations applicable to self-sealed consignments. (AI Summary)
