E-payment of Customs Duty enables electronic settlement and automatic bill-of-entry processing through the customs e-payment gateway and banks. Procedure establishes an electronic payment regime for customs duty via a centralized Customs E-Payment Gateway. Users may pay as registered or unregistered users by selecting unpaid challans, choosing an authorised bank, completing payment on the bank's internet site and returning to the gateway. A bank-generated cyber receipt is issued; a same-day verify option addresses incomplete transactions. Payment particulars are transmitted to the customs EDI system and the bill of entry moves to examination without separate proof of payment, though retention of the cyber receipt is advised.
