Dear Seller,
As you are aware that Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs vide its notification dated February 27, 2019 has made the Authorized Dealer (“AD”) code mandatory for shipping through Courier Shipping Bill (“CSB”) -V. There have been further regulatory changes in Express Cargo Clearance System for exporting shipments via CSB-V through courier mode.
Per the aforesaid notification, exporters/sellers are expected to register/update their AD code and bank account number (used for foreign remittances) under their accounts (“ICEGATE accounts”) on www.icegate.gov.in.
We therefore, request you to complete the following two activities at the earliest for smooth processing of your shipments:
-
Register/update your AD code and bank account number (used in foreign remittances) in your ICEGATE accounts. Click here to access an advisory for Authorized Dealer Code Bank Account Registration on ICEGATE.
-
Update your AD code and AD code document on eBay Global Shipping (“EGS”) platform www.ebayglobalshipping.com . Please note that your AD code on EGS platform must match with the AD code updated on ICEGATE.
We recommend you keep the below pointers in mind while you update your AD code on ICEGATE:
-
Register your AD codes at all ports in India (eg. DEL, BLR, BOM, MAA, AMD), since your shipments may be routed via any port basis logistic service provider’s preference.
-
Only 1 (one) AD code can be registered at each clearance port. However, the same AD code can be registered at multiple ports.
-
Customs turnaround time for approval of registration is minimum 48 working hours.
In case of any further clarifications, please reach out to your account manager or EGS team.
