Gifts of Consumer or Other Goods

2.38

In terms of the provisions contained in paragraph 2.19 of the Policy, an application for grant of Customs Clearance Permit for import as gifts of items appearing as restricted for imports in ITC(HS) shall be made to the Director General of Foreign Trade in the form given in Appendix-8 along with documents prescribed therein.

However, where the recipient of a gift is a charitable, religious or an educational institution registered under a law relating to the registration of societies or trusts or otherwise approved by the Central or a State Government and the gift sought to be imported has been exempted from payment of customs duty by the Ministry of Finance, such import shall be allowed by the customs authorities without a Customs Clearance Permit.
