Customs jurisdictional appointments define officer powers and territorial control across ports, airports, depots, and preventive formations. Appointment of customs officers is made for specified customs zones and territorial jurisdictions across India, including Principal Commissioner, Commissioner, preventive formations, and subordinate officers. The notification maps each designation to defined areas such as states, union territories, ports, airports, inland container depots, warehouses, export oriented units, special economic zones, and coastal areas, and confers the corresponding powers under the Customs Act, 1962 for those areas. It supersedes the earlier jurisdictional notification and takes effect on publication in the Official Gazette.
