Verification by Customs
In case of EDI shipping bills before 1.10.2005 and non-EDI shipping bills, RA shall ensure that while issuing DEPB, Shipping Bill No(s) and date(s), FOB value in Indian Rupees as per Shipping Bill(s) and description of export product are endorsed on DEPB. Before allowing imports against such DEPB, Customs shall verify that details of exports, as given on DEPB, are as per their records. However, in case of EDI shipping bills issued on or after 1-10-2005 from EDI ports which are being transmitted electronically by Customs to DGFT, DEPBs issued shall be sent to Customs at port of registration through an electronic message exchange system and DEPB shall be registered at port of registration electronically. No verification of shipping bills against which such DEPBs have been issued, will be required before allowing imports against these DEPBs.
