Bill of Entry on SB account, Customs - Exim - SEZ

[Mahesh Venkitachalam]

Hi,

I made a transaction worth USD 307 through the branch using my SB account to buy a tablet computer for personal reasons in Apr-2013. The bank is now asking for "Bill of Entry". I didn't have a clue about this document till they asked about it and I dont have the BOE now. The bank is asking me to get a declaration from a CA saying that I have lost my "Bill of Entry". CAs are not willing to give me such a document because they cannot vouch for me having lost this. Please note that this was a one time transaction and I haven't done any other transaction since.

Can the bank freeze my account, what can I do to now?

Presume you would have received through courier. If you have the bill, you can produce the same and explain to the bank about the transaction being genuine. Also presume it might be a DDP shipment.
