second Saturday and holidays).
Now as a measure of further trade facilitation and
speedy clearance of the imported cargo, and in supersession of the earlier
instructions, the Import Docks would work from 11.00 AM to 7.30 PM in general
and up to 10.00 PM in those CFSs where more than one Supdt./ Appraisers are
posted, if needed. The registration of the Bills of Entry and examination of
the imported goods will be done as per timings given below:
| Table | ||
| Shift | Time  | Activity  |

  12.30 PM | Registration
  of B/E by the Officers  |

  of examination report and giving ‘out of charge’ by the officer. | |
| Second | 3.30PM to 5.30

  no examination is required as per systems instruction will be allowed upto
  7:00 PM. In case of any urgency, it can be allowed even after 7.00 PM by the

The trade is being requested to make full use of
this facility by ensuring that the registration of the Bills of Entry for
examination is uniformly spread throughout the shift, instead of being
concentrated in the second shift.  This
will enable smooth clearance and avoidance of congestion during evening hours.
Any difficulty noticed in the implementation and/or
suggestions may be brought to the notice of the Department.
