DPD / DPE Registration Services

Expert Support for Direct Port Delivery & Direct Port Entry

At DGFT EXIM, we offer expert advisory and complete handholding support for businesses seeking registration under Direct Port Delivery (DPD) and Direct Port Entry (DPE) schemes — designed to simplify customs clearance, reduce dwell time, and lower logistics costs for importers and exporters at Indian ports.

What is Direct Port Delivery (DPD)?

Direct Port Delivery (DPD) allows approved importers to take delivery of their containers directly from the port terminal, bypassing the traditional Container Freight Station (CFS) process. This significantly reduces clearance time and logistics expenses.

What is Direct Port Entry (DPE)?

Direct Port Entry (DPE) enables exporters to deliver their cargo directly to the port terminal for immediate loading onto vessels, avoiding interim CFS handling and thereby minimizing transit delays and costs.

Benefits of DPD / DPE Registration

  • Faster customs clearance
  • Reduced port handling charges and logistics costs
  • Shorter container dwell time
  • Direct coordination with terminal operators
  • Improved supply chain efficiency
