Circular No 19/2019-Customs
F.No. 450/148/2015-Cus-IV
Government of India
Ministry of Finance, Department of Revenue
Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs
Dated: 16" July, 2019
To
All Principal Chief Commissioners/Chief Commissioners of Customs, Customs &
Central Taxes and Customs (Preventive).
All Principal Commissioners/Commissioners of Customs, Customs & Central
Taxes and Customs (Preventive)
Madam / Sir,
Sub: Implementation of PGA eSANCHIT— Paperless Processing under SWIFT-
Uploading of Licenses/Permits/Certificates/Other
Authorizations (LPCOs)
by PGAs — reg.
‘eSANCHIT” application is successfully in operation since 01.04.2018. with the
objective of further reducing physical interface between Customs/regulatory agencies
and the trade and to increase the speed of clearance in both imports & exports, a facility
to upload digitally signed Licenses/Permits/Certificates/Other Authorizations (LPCOs)
by Participating Government Agencies (PGAs) on eSANCHIT at all ICES locations
across India was introduced from 16.11.2018 vide Circular No. 44/2018-Cus. dated
13.11.2018. In this regard, kindly refer to Board’s Circular No. 13/2019-Cus. dated
03.06.2019 also. Already 27 PGAs have been enabled for uploading their LPCOs on
eSANCHIT.
2. Now, 16 more PGAs with their LPCOs as detailed in the Annexure-I are being
brought onboard eSANCHIT platform. With this, the total number of PGAs brought on
Board becomes 43 as on date. Further, the Council of Leather Export which is already
onboard shall also start uploading their remaining LPCO namely Certificate of Import
Clearance for Textile and Textile Articles.
3; Since the facility to upload the LPCOs is now being fully made available to these
16 new PGAs, therefore, the beneficiaries i.c. importer/exporters/customs brokers would
not be allowed to upload the previously issued LPCOs on eSANCHIT w.e.f 01/08/2019.
Further, to facilitate the members of the trade (beneficiaries), the PGAs are required to
upload the LPCOs issued by them during the last 15 days from above cut-off date. Any
LPCOs issued on a prior date may also be uploaded by the PGAs on eSANCHIT, in
order to enable the beneficiary to utilize the same.
4. It is reiterated that the PGAs will be communicating with the beneficiaries through
the email addresses registered in the ICEGATE. Board had also introduced simplified auto
registration process in ICEGATE based on email ids already provided by them for
registration under GST without the use of digital signatures for limited purposes of
eSANCHIT (communication and viewing) and the IRNs will be communicated to such
email ids. In this regard, kindly refer to Board’s Circular No 14/2019 -Cus. dated
03.06.2019. Since the facility of beneficiary uploading these documents through
eSANCHIT will be deactivated from 01.08.2019, beneficiary registration is of utmost
importance. Hence, all the formations are requested to reach out to the beneficiaries to
ensure that correct email addresses are reflected in the ICEGATE. Special efforts may be
taken for wide publicity in this regard.
4. All Chief Commissioners of Customs are requested to issue public notices.
Feedback and queries, if any, may be sent by email to icegatehelpdesk(@icegate.gov.in.
6. Any difficulties, in this regard, may be brought to the notice of the Board.
Yours sincerely,
\ ht
