Pursuant to CBIC Circular No. 09/2026, the notice prescribes simplified procedures for export cargo returning to Indian ports due to closure of the Strait of Hormuz, permitting vessels to berth at their port of departure and enabling offloading without SAM or Bill of Entry where the vessel did not call at foreign ports.
