Specialized Advisory and Operational Support for Customs Compliance
DGFT EXIM offers specialized advisory and operational support for businesses handling customs notices, import licensing procedures, and Indian Trade Classification (Harmonized System) [ITC (HS)] classification challenges in Delhi and across India.
Importance of Addressing Customs Notices
Customs authorities issue notices to notify businesses of discrepancies, misdeclarations, classification errors, or regulatory non-compliance identified during customs processes.
Prompt, accurate, and well-documented replies are essential to avoid penalties, clearance delays, or legal complications.
Role of Accurate ITC (HS) Classification
Correct classification under ITC (HS) codes is vital for:
- Determining applicable duties and regulatory restrictions
- Ensuring eligibility under trade agreements and duty exemptions
- Preventing misclassification-related customs notices and disputes
DGFT EXIM provides expert assistance in precise HS code determination, reducing risks of non-compliance and duty disputes.
