MAJOR LEARNING
 EXPORT PROCESS
1. Having an Export Order:
Processing of an export order starts with the receipt of an export order.
An export order, simply stated, means that there should be an agreement
in the form of a document, between the exporter and importer before the
exporter actually starts producing or procuring goods forshipment.
Generally an export order may take the form of proforma invoice or
purchase order or letter of credit. You have already learnt these just in the
preceding section.
2. Examination and Confirmation of Order:
Having received an export order, the exporter should examine it with
reference to the terms and conditions of the contract. In fact, this is the
most crucial stage as all subsequent actions and reactions depend on the
terms and conditions of the export order.
The examination of an export order, therefore, includes items like product
description, terms of payment, terms of shipment, inspection and
insurance requirement, documents realising payment and the last date of
negotiation of documents with the bank. Having being satisfied with
these, the export order is confirmed by the exporter.
3. Manufacturing or Procuring Goods:
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), under the export credit (interest
subsidy) scheme, extends pre-shipment credit to exporter to finance

working capital needs for purchase of raw materials, processingthem and
converting them into finished goods for the purposeof exports. The
exporter approaches the bank on the basis of laid down procedures for the
pre-shipment credit. Having received credit, the exporter starts to
manufacture / procure and pack the goods forshipment overseas.
4. Clearance fromCentral Excise:
As soonas goods have been manufactured/ procured, the process for
obtaining clearance from central excise duty starts. The Central Excise
and Sale Act of India and the related rules provide the refund of excise
duty paid. There are two alternative schemes whereby 100 per cent rebate
on duty is given to export products onthe submission of the proofof
shipment.
The first scheme is to make payment of the excise duty at the time of
removing the export consignment from the factory and file a claim for
rebate of duty after exportation of goods. The second scheme is to
remove goods from factory/warehouse without payment but under an
appropriate bond with the excise authorities. The exporter needs to apply
on a form known as AR4 or AR4A to the Central Excise Range
Superintendent for obtaining excise clearance.
Form A is filed when goods are to be cleared after examination by the
excise inspector. In all other cases, form AR4A is filed.
5. Pre-Shipment Inspection:
There are number of-goods whose export requires quality certification as
per the Government of India’s notification. Consequently, the Indian
custom authorities will require the submission of an inspection certificate

issued by the competent and designated authority before permitting the
shipment of goods takes place.
Inspection of export goods may be conducted under:
(i) Consignment-wise Inspection
(ii) In-process Quality Control, and
(iii) Self-Certification.
The Inspection Certificate is issued in triplicate. The original copyis for
the customs verification. The second copyof the certificate is sent to the
importer and the third copyremains with the exporter for his reference
purpose.
6. Appointment of Clearing and Forwarding Agents:
On completion of the process ofobtaining the Inspection Certificate from
the custom agencies, the exporter appoints clearing and forwarding agents
who perform a number of functions on behalf of the exporter.
The main functions performed by these agents include packing, marking
and labelling of consignment, arrangement for transport to the port
arrangement for shipment overseas, customs clearance of cargo,
procurement of transport and other documents.
In order to facilitate the exporter in discharging his duties, the
following documents are submitted to the agent:
(i) Commercial invoice in 8-10 copies
(ii) Customs Declaration Form in triplicate
(iii) Packing list

(iv) Letter of Credit (original)
(v) Inspection Certificate (original)
(vi) G.R. Form (in original and duplicate)
(vii) AR4/ AR4A (in original and duplicate)
(viii) GP-l/GP-2 (original)
(ix) Railway Receipt/Lorry Way Bill, as the case may be
7. Goods to Port of Shipment:
After the excise clearance and pre-shipment inspection formalities are
completed, the goods to be exported are packed, marked and labeled.
Propermarking, labelling and packing help quick and safe transportation
of goods. The export department takes steps to reserve spaceon the ship
through which goods are to be sent to the importer.
The shipping spacecan be reserved either through the clearing and
forwarding agent or freight broker who works on behalf of the shipping
company or directly from the shipping company. Once the spaceis
reserved, the shipping company issues a document known as Shipping
Order. This order serves as a proofof spacereservation.
If goods are sent through a road carrier to the port, no specific formality
is involved. In case, the goods are sent by rail to the port of shipment,
allotment of wagon needs to be obtained from the Railway Board.
The following documents are submitted to the booking railway
yard/station:
(i) Forwarding Note (A Railway Document)

(ii) Shipping Order
(iii) Wagon Registration Fee Receipt
Once wagons have been allotted, goods are loaded, for which railways
will issue Railway Receipt (RR). Then, this receipt and other documents
are sent to the clearing and forwarding agent at the porttown. At the
same time, the production/export department takes insurance policy in
duplicate for risk coverage (internal as well as overseas) for the goods to
be exported.
8. Port Formalities and Customs Clearance:
Having received the documents from the export department, the clearing
and forwarding agent takes delivery of the cargo from the railway station
or the road transport company and stores it in the warehouse. He also
obtains customs clearance and permission from the port authorities to
bring the cargo into the shipment shed.
The customdepartment grants permission for export at the office of the
customs and physical verification of goods in the shipment shed. The
clearance for export is given on the Shipping Bill.
The clearing and forwarding agent is required to submit the
following documents with the Customs House for obtaining customs
clearance andpermission:
(i) Shipping Bill
(ii) Contract Form
(iii) Letter of Credit, if applicable
(iv) Commercial Invoice

(v) GR Form
(vi) Inspection Certificate
(vii) AR4/AR4A Form
(viii) Packing List, if needed
After receiving documents from the export department, the clearing and
forwarding agent presents the Port Trust Document to the Shed
Superintendent of the port. He obtains carting order bringing the cargo to
the transit shed for physical examination by the Dock Appraiser.
The Dock Appraiser is presentedthe following documents to
facilitate him in physical examination of export goods:
(i) Shipping Bill
(ii) Commercial Invoice
(iii) Packing List
(iv) AR4/ AR4A Form and Gate Pass
(v) GR Form (duplicate)
(vi) Inspection Certificate (original)
The Dock Appraiser, after making examination, makes ‘Let Export’
endorsement on the duplicate copyof the Shipping Bill and hands over it
to the Forwarding Agent. All these documents are presented to the
Preventive Officer who puts an endorsement ‘Let Ship’ on the duplicate
copyof the Shipping Bill. The preventive officer supervises the loading
of cargo on board the vessel.

After the goods are loaded on board the vessel, the captain of the ship
issues a receipt known as ‘Mate’s Receipt’ to the Shed Superintendent of
the port concern. The forwarding, agent after paying port charges, takes
the delivery of the ‘Mate Receipt’. He submits to Shipping Company and
requests it to issue the Bill of Lading.

concessions, the exporter needs to procure the GSP Certificate of Origin
from the concerned authority like Export Inspection Agency.

EXPORT PROMOTIO SCHEMES
1. Duty Drawback Scheme: Under Duty Drawback Scheme relief of
Customs and Central Excise Duties suffered on the inputs used in the
manufacture of export product is allowed to Exporters. The admissible
duty drawback amount is paid to exporters by depositing it into their
nominated bank account. Section 75 of the Customs Act, 1962 and
Section 37 of the Central Excise Act, 1944, empower the Central
Government to grant such duty drawback. Customs and Central Excise
Duties Drawback Rules, 1995 have been framed outlining the procedure
to be followed for the purpose of grant of duty drawback (for both kinds
of duties suffered) by the Customs Authorities processing export
documentation.
2. Duty Exemption Scheme: Duty Exemption Scheme is an export
promotion scheme and it enables import of inputs required for export
production free of Customs duty. Advance Licences are issued under
Duty Exemption Scheme to allow import of inputs, which are physically
incorporated in the export product (after making normal allowance for
wastage). In addition, fuel, oil, energy catalysts, etc., which are consumed
in the course of their use to obtain the export product can also be allowed
under the scheme. Value and quantity of each item permitted duty free
134 import are specified in the Advance Licence. Standard input-output
norms (SIONs) notified by the DGFT under para 7.8 of the Handbook of
Procedures (Vol.I) or as modified under para 7.10 of the said Handbook
facilitate determination of the proportion of various inputs which can be
used or are required in the manufacture of different resultant products.
Advance Licences are issued for Physical exports, Intermediate supplies
and Deemed exports. Advance Licences are also issued on the basis of

annual requirement for exports/supplies. This enables the exporter to plan
out his manufacturing/export programme on long term basis. Advance
Licences for deemed exports are issued to (i) manufacturer exporter or
main contractor in case of deemed exports, and (ii) Merchant exporter
having supporting manufacturer.
3. Export Promotion capital Goods (EPCG) Scheme: Under EPCG
Scheme import of capital goods which are required for the manufacture
of resultant export product specified in the EPCG Licence is permitted at
concessional rate of Customs duty. This Scheme also enables upgradation
of technology of the indigenous industry. For this purpose EPCG
Licences are issued on the basis of approval granted by EPCG
Committee. The EPCG Committee comprises of officers from DGFT,
MOF and concerned Administrative Ministry. At present the EPCG
licence holder is permitted to import capital goods at 5% or 10% Customs
duty. Whereas under 5% duty EPCG Scheme the licence holder is
required to undertake to fulfil export obligation equivalent to 5 times the
CIF value of imported capital goods within a period of 8 years reckoned
from the date of issue of licence, under 10% duty EPCG Scheme, the
licence holder has to fulfil export obligation equivalent to 4 times the CIF
value of imported capital goods in five years. EPCG licences are issued to
manufacturer exporters and merchant exporter with or without supporting
manufacturer, and service providers. The licence specifies the
value/quantity of resultant export product to be exported against it. In the
case of manufacturer/merchant exporters, such Export Obligation (EO) is
required to be fulfilled by exporting resultant products manufactured with
the help of imported capital goods. In the case of service providers the
export obligation is required to be fulfilled by earning foreign exchange
through rendering service. In order to ensure fulfilment of specified
export obligation as also to secure 139 interest of revenue, the licence
holder is required to file bond with or without bank guarantee with the
Customs Authority prior to commencement of import of capital goods.

CALCULATION OF TERIFF
An import tariff is a tax placed by governments on commodities
that are shipped into a country from a foreign country. These taxes
are often a way to discourage a country's consumers from buying
products from another country and to support domestic products
and services. Governments generally have the right to determine
what products will have a tariff and how much that tax will be.

 Demurrage relates to cargo (while the cargo is in the container)
Imports – A container is discharged off a ship on the 2nd July –
Consignee approaches the shipping line to take delivery of the cargo
around 12th July.. Working off a standard 7 free days from date of
discharge, the line free days (different to port free days) expires on the
8th July.. So, the line will charge the consignee DEMURRAGE for4
days from 9th to 12th July at the rate fixed by the line..
 Detention relates to equipment (while the container is empty after
unpacking or before packing)
After the full container has been picked up by the client, for example if
they take another 7 days to return the empty container, then it is known
as DETENTIONwhich again will be charged at the rate fixed by the
line..
