Dear Members,
We would like to inform you that the O/o The Commissioner of Customs, Nhava Sheva-III, JNCH has issued important Publics pertaining to Operationalization of “one-time default intimation” to Shipping Lines by DPD importers at JNCH & Part delivery of DPD consignment selected for scanning, respectively.
For the convenience of members, the gist of the said Public Notices is given below:
The Public Notice No 36/2018, dated 09.03.2018 stipulates that the “one time default intimation” by the DPD importers to the DPD cell, JNCH is to be shared with the shipping lines through the CSLA [csla@bombaychamber.com] so that the default stacking code indicated in the said “intimation” can be treated as default stacking code by the shipping lines. Various instances have been reported by the DPD importers wherein shipping lines were found to be moving the DPD containers to the CFSs of their own preference & not in accordance with the “default stacking code” shared to them through the CSLA. Movement of DPD containers to the CFSs other than the choice of the DPD importers may result in extra cost to the DPD importers and also delay in clearance. Shipping lines claimed that they had not received the one-time default intimation on time.
To avoid this kind of repeated non- compliance, it has been decided to discontinue with the present practice of sharing the one-time default intimation every time to the shipping lines through the CLSA. Now, it will be incumbent upon the shipping lines to move the containers as per the “one time default intimation details” published on the website of Jawaharlal Nehru Customs House {i.e. www.jawaharcustoms.gov.in }. The officers posted at DPD Cell, JNCH have been advised to keep the “said information above” published on the website updated at least on weekly basis.
It is, therefore, made incumbent on the consignees availing this facility to check information placed on JNCH website regularly to ensure that their names and details appear correctly on the website, so as to enable the Shipping Lines in turn to manifest their cargo correctly, as DPD+ DPD or DPD + CFS, as the case may be. Shipping Lines should be guided by the names and details such as Common DPD code, IEC, choice of stacking code of the DPD importers as updated on the JNCH website. CSLA will no longer be the contact point for sending ‘One Time Default Intimation’ mails to the Shipping Lines.
In case of any difficulty, the specific issue may be brought to the notice of Additional Commissioner in charge of ‘DPD Cell’, NS-III (email address: dpd.amijnch@gmail.com).
Vide Public Notice no 161/2016, dated 28.11.2016, facility of scanning and part delivery was provided to selected importers (DPD Clients, ACP Clients/100% EOU (now AEOs)) subject to the importers undertaking to produce such containers at the designated CFS or other CFS as mentioned in this Public Notice, if required by the Customs for examination.
As per Public Notice 161/2016 an undertaking had to be produced by DPD importers in case of part delivery. It has been decided that henceforth only importers having manufacturing facilities (manufacturer importers) can avail the facility of part delivery on submission of an undertaking as per the procedure laid down in PN 47/2007, dated 07.11.2007 & the Public Notice No.161/2016, dated 28.11.2016. The subject facility of part delivery shall no longer be available to the trader importers. However, this facility would be available to AEOs, irrespective of their status as manufacturer or trader.
In case of any difficulty, the specific issue may be brought to the notice of Deputy/Assistant Commissioner in charge of DPD Cell, NS-III (email address: dpd.amijnch@gmail.com).
The above said Public Notices are available for reference using below links-
Members (specially importing through JNPT) are requested to take note of the same. You may also send your feed-back to the council on our e-mail ids deepak.gupta@chemexcil.gov.in and info@chemexcil.gov.in .
