Sample Testing Shifted to JNPT Lab Instead of New Customs House

[Jawaharlal Nehru Customs House Standing Order No. 61 dated 17th October 2016]

Sub: - Testing of Sample at DYCC Lab.

Attention of all the Staff members is invited to the procedure followed for testing of samples at DyCC Lab. In light of the “Ease of Doing Business” initiative by Government of India and in order to reduce dwell time and speedy clearance of cargo, the procedure for testing of samples is simplified.

2.  In this regard, it is noticed that the samples are being sent to the DyCC, New Customs House, Mumbai inspite of facility for testing the same being available at DyCC Lab, JNCH, Nhava Sheva. In order to reduce time taken for testing and Test Report submission, it has been decided that henceforth testing of samples will be done by DyCC, Jawaharlal Nehru Customs House, Nhava Sheva only.

3.  In case testing facility for a particular product being not available in DyCC Lab, JNCH Nhava Sheva, then only the same will be sent to any other Government approved laboratory.

4.  Difficulties, if any, in implementation of this Public Notice may be brought to the notice of the undersigned.
