DGFT has amended Para 10.12(D) of the Handbook of Procedures 2023 to introduce General Authorization for Export after Repair (GAER) for SCOMET items. The amendment allows exporters to re-export imported SCOMET items to related entities and repair supply chain partners after repair in India under a one-time authorization valid for one year, subject to quarterly post-reporting requirements. Key conditions include: no change to original specifications during repair, compliance with Internal Compliance Programme requirements, mandatory AEO certification for certain transfers, and prohibition of exports to UNSC-sanctioned destinations. The revised procedure eliminates the need for separate authorizations for each shipment, streamlining the process for compliant exporters while maintaining export control safeguards.
