Alternatively, the same information can be obtained as a Report by entering the PAN number on the ICEGATE website with the following URL: http://www.icegate.gov.in/CHAReport/index.html . 3. Both the Check List and the Report from the URL require the entry of the only 10 digit PAN number. The Check List/Report has 3 parts to it. The first part provides the CHA licensing details. The license information includes the following fields: (i) CHA license number (ii) Policy Section of Registration (iii) Registration date (iv) Validity (expiry) date. 4. It is possible that some CHAs have original licenses issued from more than one Custom House. CHAs cannot maintain multiple registrations for operation on an all-India basis, since the centralized database would require one registration date and one validity date against their license, which will be valid on an all India basis. They may choose one of the registrations as their Principal registration and the associated Policy Section will be termed as the Principal Policy Section.

The application should include the following documentation: (i) His current Check-list /Report taken from the ICEGATE website. (ii) Copy of his License (iii) Copy of proof of Reg. 9(2) intimation for the site (if it is not the Original Policy section). (iv) Copy of a sample signed bill of entry or shipping bill from the ICES location in question (this will give help the policy section enter the exact old registration number). The reference of the old ICES registration number is a must since a link has to be established in the data base between the PAN based registration number and Old CHA registration number on ICES. 7. Once the Principal Policy section is chosen by the CHA, all updation on the directory shall take place from this Policy Section alone. The updation of intimations under Regulation 9(2) will however be done in the Policy Section of the location where a CHA intends start operations on the basis of license issued elsewhere.

As the registration would be PAN based in the CHA directory, the CHA will have to necessarily provide a copy of PAN along with the other documents for this purpose. The Principal Policy section would carry out the formality of registration by entering all particulars of the CHA and thereafter give the necessary intimation to the non-EDI Centre. The Licensing Policy section in the non-EDI location will thereafter intimate changes in the CHA license status with regard to extension of validity, suspension or any other change in the registration status to that Policy Section. This arrangement will continue until the non-EDI Centre gets covered under EDI. Authorized signatories of such CHAs may therefore apply on their letter heads seeking registration under Reg. 9(2) with intimation to their License issuing Policy Section. The Policy section should forthwith register them on PAN based database with an intimation to the concerned non-EDI Policy section.
