OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER OF CUSTOMS (IV) AIR CARGO COMPLEX, SAHAR, ANDHERI (EAST), MUMBAI-400099 F. No.S/3-Misc/EGM/SS/2016-17-EGM Date: 03.09.2016 PUBLIC NOTICE NO. 34/2016 Sub: Procedure for Removal of EGM Error-reg. Kind attention of the members of Trade/Airlines/Exporters is invited to the procedure of filing of EGM. As per Section 41 of the Customs Act, 1962, the person-in-charge of a conveyance carrying export goods shall, before departure of the conveyance from a Customs station, deliver to the proper officer in the case of a vessel or aircraft, an export manifest, and in the case of a vehicle, an export report, in the prescribed form. 2. It has been observed that a large number of shipping bills processed at the Indian Customs EDI (Electronic Data interchange) System get stuck either because of wrong or incorrect entry of the Airway Bill Number at the time of Goods Registration of export cargo, or due to incorrect feeding of data in the ICES EDI system either at the service centre or at ICEGATE. Further, it is observed that 'L' i.e LEO error occurs when the system is down or slow and print is delayed but LEO had been given and this needs to be cleared in the ICE gate forcefully with update. 3. In order to facilitate quick removal of EGM Errors in the EDI System, henceforth Error L i.e., LEO Error will be removed by the Batch Officer posted in Export Shed. The representative of the Airline/CHA should approach the Batch Officer with the request letter for removal of Error L i.e., LEO Error and thereafter the Batch Officer will remove the error in the EDI system after verifying the details in the S/Bill and the EGM. 4. The procedure for removal of other EGM errors such as 'P' or 'H' will continue to be followed in the same way as is being done at present. The Airline/CHA/Exporter Will approach the EGM co-ordination Section for removal of other errors. 5. Difficulty, if any faced in the implementation of this Public N tice may be brought to the notice of the under signed. (ANIL KUMAR GUPTA) COMMISSIONER OF CUSTOMS (IV) ACC, SAHAR, MUMBAI
