Dear Members,

As you are aware that Amnesty scheme is intended to provide relief to exporters who have been unable to meet their obligations under Export Promotion Credit Guarantee (EPCG) and Advance Authorizations, and who are burdened by high duty and interest costs associated with pending cases.

The Amnesty scheme shall be available for a limited period, up to September 30, 2023, as per the new Foreign Trade Policy (FTP) which will be effective from April 1.
All pending cases of the default in meeting Export Obligation (EO) of authorizations mentioned can be regularized on payment of all customs duties that were exempted in proportion to unfulfilled EO.
The interest payable is capped at 100 per cent of these exempted duties under this scheme, However, no interest is payable on the portion of Additional Customs Duty and Special Additional Customs Duty.
The detailed coverage of the scheme with example is mentioned in attached file.
