JNCH removes charges on late presentation of bill of entry

The Jawaharlal Nehru Customs House (JNCH) has removed the charges on late presentation of bill of entry for consignments with entry inward dates between July 8, 2019 and July 9, 2019, and bill of entry dates between July 8, 2019 and July 10, 2019. Also, in case of any further delay in the generation of the bill of entry after July 10, 2019, the customs brokers or the importers will have to submit evidence like job number and screenshots of the job number from the Indian Customs Electronic Commerce/Electronic Data Interchange [EDI] Gateway (ICEGATE)/message received in ICEGATE, to show that while efforts were made for submitting a job in ICEGATE for filing the bill of entry, no positive acknowledgement was received from the Indian Customs EDI System.
