Sub: Exemption from drawal of samples for the purpose of grant of drawback to the AEO Certificate holders

Dear Member,

Kindly refer to our earlier Circular No. ES/ 321/2016-17 dated 02.03.2017 wherein CBEC had issued   Circular No. 5/2017-Cus  dated 28.02.2017 informing about the exemption from drawal of samples for the purpose of grant of drawback to the AEO certificate holders.

In this connection, Board has decided that those exporters who have been accorded Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) certificate (Tier II & Tier III) in terms of Circular No. 33/2016- Customs dated 22.07.2016 are being exempt from the requirements of drawl of samples for the purpose of grant of drawback, except in case of any specific information or intelligence, as a measure of further facilitation.

Now, Mumbai Customs has issued Public Notice No. 28/2017 dated 07.03.2017 on the above subject.

 Members may kindly make note of the same.

Thanking you,

 V. ANIL KUMAR
Executive Director
