CBEC:
As part of Government’s initiatives for improving Ease of Doing Business, several facilitation measures are being taken by the Central Board of Excise & Customs. After consultation with stakeholders, it has emerged that introduction of electronic messaging for issue of Delivery Order instead of a paper based Delivery Order will result in considerable simplification in the Customs Clearance process, and can demonstrably reduce transaction costs and time taken in the clearance of Cargo. To implement the electronic Delivery Order System, as a prerequisite, the Custodian should have the technical capability to implement an electronic messaging system for the receipt of electronic Delivery Order. Shipping Lines, Airlines and Consol Agents should have the capacity to generate electronic Delivery Order in the required format. It is expected that elimination of hard-copy Delivery Order and implementation of the proposed online system of Delivery Order would enable Shipping Lines, Airlines and Consol Agents to issue Delivery Order at the earliest possible time in the process of unloading of cargo. the secure electronic transmission of Delivery Order would enhance the overall security and transparency of the cargo clearance process.
