Transshipment procedures require sealed containers, endorsed shipping bills and customs supervision at the gateway for export. Export cargo cleared at an originating port/ICD/CFS may be moved in sealed containers to a named gateway port after filing Shipping Bills that identify the gateway and container numbers. Goods are examined, containers sealed, and transference copies of the Shipping Bill sent to the gateway; the E.P. copy is endorsed for transshipment. Carriers execute a continuity bond securing FOB value where applicable. At the gateway Customs verifies seals and documents, endorses shipment, and the steamer agent files the EGM; transference copies and the EGM are returned to the originating port to correlate with the retained duplicate Shipping Bill for manifest closure and bond cancellation.
