Difficulty in closure of Advance Authorisation

Difficulty in closure of Advance Authorisation due to space constraints in the description column of the shipping bills – Trade Notice No 32/2024-25

It has came to the notice of this Directorate that in the process of closure of AA through the online system, certain issues are being faced by exporters due to inability of the system to capture complete description of the export items as per the export invoice. Item description with more than 120 characters, may not completely reflected in Shipping Bills. In such cases, deficiencies are raised by RA for non compliance of Para 4.42 (iii) of FTP 2023.

Therefore, it is directed that wherever such difficulties are encountered, RAs may corroborate the complete description of the export item and decide such cases on the basis of self attested copies of GST system generated e- invoices.

In such cases, the aforesaid documents may be uploaded along with all the other prescribed documents for Redemption/EODC of Advance Authorisations.
