CBEC:
Central Board of Excise and Customs to facilitate trade has taken-up the task of implementing ‘Indian Customs Single Window Project’. This project envisages that the importers and exporters would electronically lodge their Customs clearance documents at a single point only with the Customs. CBEC has developed the ‘Integrated Declaration’, under which all information required for import clearance by the concerned government agencies has been incorporated into the electronic format of the Bill of Entry. The Customs Broker or Importer shall submit the “Integrated Declaration” electronically to a single entry point, i.e. the Customs Gateway (ICEGATE). Separate application forms required by different PGAs like Drug Controller, AQCS, WCCB, PQIS and FSSAI would be dispensed with.
