....ally there will not be any need to file a separate application for transshipment and the SMTP portion of the IGM itself would be treated as an application for transshipment provided the following conditions are satisfied:- (i) MLO's obtain a one time registration with Custom House by filing an application in the format prescribed in Annexure 'I' to this pubic notice. (ii) The field relating to the "Port of destination" is duly filled in and its value is different than the "Port of discharge" and its value is port code of any valid Indian ICD/CFS. (iii) Shipping agents / MLOs register their bonds (either TP or GB), if they want to use their own bond for transhipment purposes. If they want to use carrier bond (i.e. 3rd party) then they must register the authorization from the agency whose bond is to be used for this purpose. This bond registration no. would be used for auto debiting purposes. (iv) The Bond value is calculated on the basis of the size of the container and not on the basis of Invoice value of the cargo contained in such containers. (In this case the bond amount would be calculated by the system on the default value linked to the size of containers which is ....

If both Line No From and Line No To fields are entered (ie, a range of lines has been specified), then the cursor will go to the next record and skip the subsequent fields (because all the associated sub- lines for the range of line nos. are assumed to have been considered). If Line No From is entered and Line No To is null (i.e. only a single Line No has been specified), then cursor will go to the sub-line details to get either a single sub-line of the line or a range of sub-lines for the given Line No. If Sub-line No. From and Sub-line No To are both left blank, then all the sub-lines for the give Line No. will be considered. During storing in the database tables, however, all ranges will be expanded and stored as individual line/sub-line combinations.
