Dear Members,
The O/o Directorate General of Foreign Trade, New Delhi has issued Trade Notice no. 22/2018 dated 11/12/2017 regarding Application fee for grant of import authorization.
The trade notice states that there are instances of importers applying for authorization for import of restricted items by submitting their applications at the concerned Regional Authority of DGFT without paying the application fee at the time of submission of application. At the same time, the application is submitted at DGFT HQrs at Udyog Bhawan, New Delhi without mention of any fees paid. Subsequently, when these cases are approved, applicants submit their application at the Regional Authority along-with the fee.
With issuance of above-said Trade Notice, it is now clarified that the application fee as prescribed in Appendix 2K of FTP2015-20 is the processing fee and the importers are required to submit their applications at the Regional Authority along-with the prescribed fee and simultaneously at DGFT(HQ).
The importers are hereby accordingly informed that application for grant of import licence may only be deposited at the RA's office, after paying the applicable fees. Further while submitting their application in DGFT if they do not attach copy of the fee paid, their application will not be processed and no import authorization will be issued.
Member exporters are advised to take note of the same. The Trade Notice no. 22/2018 dated 11/12/2017 is available for download using below link-
