Customs Broker: New Paradigm New Opportunities New League The Convention is a great platform: 1. You get updates of the sector with insight from experts 2. The knowledge sessions give you an in depth overview of the business and will help you chart the course for future. 3. Networking opportunities in a structured format and Trade Fair are part of the convention 4. While we take our business sessions seriously, for the family, the accompanying person programmes and traditional hospitality means ... great Entertainment, Fine Spirits and multi cuisine meals with live counters. Even for breakfast you’ll relish one of the largest spread. As most of us are families in business, we’ll have session for entire family on topics related to wealth management and family business issues. ‘Customs Broker: New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League’ is the convention theme this time. The theme is both topical and apt for the phase we’re passing through as an industry. The business sessions will help you to help yourselves, unfold the emerging situation, get multiple perspectives with insight into global practices and will help you chart the way forward. One of the great paradoxes of life is that, though we as humans generally like stability and resist change, it is only through change and adversity that we can grow and progress. In a day and age when change is completely pervasive in life, the current norm will likely be obsolete in just a few years—sooner, in many cases. The new Avatar of the ‘Customs House Agent’ as ‘Customs Broker’ will not be namesake. As much as Change is inevitable, each Change brings New Opportunities, and the Customs Brokers will need to look for New Horizons. Historically, the Customs Brokers have been adaptive species with an aptitude for attitudinal change and courage to face the reality. They have equipped themselves with the capabilities including professional infrastructure of well-trained and professional staff. It is time ripe for each Customs Broker to ‘Create History’, and thus the theme - Customs Broker: New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League. The ‘Customs Broker’, aka ‘Custom House Agent’ has always been an important catalyst, playing a crucial role in facilitating trade around the World. Vast expansion in International Trade owes much to a revolution in transport sector and communications sector; equally, it owes to the international trade related professions, particularly those that facilitated the regulatory compliance as a bridge between the Customer and the Authorities. The Customs Broker has played a pivotal role, offering not just service of customs clearance, but in addition meeting every conceivable need of the customer by providing a wide array of complete logistics solutions packaged with other value- enhancing services and by assisting customers in duty drawback, trade and tariff matters, and further bringing about substantial synergies.

3. Dear Members,
Biennial Convention of FFFAI is not only the most important event
in the industry, but it is also an event with widest participation
from the stakeholders in the EXIM Trade, including from government
authorities.
The Convention Committee and the Executive Committee members
put in hard efforts so that each time the Convention sets a higher
standard from the previous. We will, for this convention as well, do our
every bit best to ensure that the participation in the convention is fruitful
and a memorable experiance both for the delegates and the family.
This convention will be very special, for the first time the IFCBA will hold
it’s AGM and Board Meeting in India. IFCBA has consented to hold
two sessions for the delegates to give an international perspective.
The delegates will have the opportunity to interact with the leaders
from about 30 countries, including from the neighbouring counties, this
international exposure is not an opportunity to be missed.
CHAs have been over zealously guarding their customers’ interests,
fighting their battle as own, in course of which the CHAs sidelines his
own interests, in fact own necessities; Convention is the time to think
about our own future, or survival, our livelihood, and our well-being.
The Convention is a great platform:
1. You get updates of the sector with insight from experts
2. The knowledge sessions give you an in depth overview of the
business and will help you chart the course for future.
3. Networking opportunities in a structured format and Trade Fair are
part of the convention
4. While we take our business sessions seriously, for the family, the
accompanying person programmes and traditional hospitality
means ... great Entertainment, Fine Spirits and multi cuisine meals
with live counters. Even for breakfast you’ll relish one of the largest
spread. As most of us are families in business, we’ll have session
for entire family on topics related to wealth management and family
business issues.
‘Customs Broker: New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New
League’ is the convention theme this time. The theme is both topical
and apt for the phase we’re passing through as an industry. The
business sessions will help you to help yourselves, unfold the emerging
situation, get multiple perspectives with insight into global practices
and will help you chart the way forward.
If you consider the cost of stay with cocktails and meals in a premium 5
Star hotel, the participation costs you less than what’s the cost of stay
itself. Your participation is important, not just for your organisation but
also for your Fraternity, as what you share is important to all.
We look forward to seeing you at the convention.

CONVENTION THEME - Customs Broker: New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League
The ‘Customs Broker’, aka ‘Custom House Agent’ has always been an important catalyst,
playing a crucial role in facilitating trade around the World. Vast expansion in International Trade
owes much to a revolution in transport sector and communications sector; equally, it owes to the
international trade related professions, particularly those that facilitated the regulatory compliance as
a bridge between the Customer and the Authorities. The Customs Broker has played a pivotal role,
offering not just service of customs clearance, but in addition meeting every conceivable need of
the customer by providing a wide array of complete logistics solutions packaged with other value-
enhancing services and by assisting customers in duty drawback, trade and tariff matters, and further
bringing about substantial synergies.
The Global Trade Stakeholders, including the Government Authorities, in the past few years, have
been compelled to give prime importance to Secure, Safe, Environmental Friendly, Resilient, and
yet Cost Efficient & Speed Optimized ‘Global Supply Chains’. These developments, have not just
changed the structure of transport but in addition have also influenced the Regulatory Framework,
leading to the law makers introduce new standards such as KYC (‘Know Your Customer’ guidelines
so that the service providers are not used intentionally or unintentionally by importers / exporters
who indulge in fraudulent activities), AEO (‘Authorised Economic Operator’ with authorizing criteria of
Law Compliance, Internal Control System, Financial Solvency and Security Management), and Self
Assessment with Audit Based Control.
The term globalization is really a complex set of changes. The World Trade Organization gives prime
importance to trade facilitation. Minimisation of transaction costs is of utmost importance to both to
Manufacturers & Customers, right up to Individual consumers. The Governments therefore cannot
be indifferent to keeping transaction costs at the lowest level. The WCO agrees that the role of
Customs is becoming more complex and that there is a need for increased collaboration between
Customs administrations, with other government agencies, and with the trade. The WCO therefore
has initiatives such as MRA (Mutual Recognition Arrangement is accepting counter-party’s AEO
program in the same manner as Country’s own AEO program) and Capacity Building (collaborative
with trade participation). Strategically important initiatives include Coordinated Border Management,
the Economic Competitiveness Package, Information Management And Data Quality, and the Globally
Net-worked Customs.
With all these changes, it will be naïve to expect that the Customs Brokers can continue to conduct
the business in the same manner as they did for past 50 years i.e. after enactment of the Customs Act
’62. The Customs Brokers need to consider the prevailing situation in the international market place,

6. a playground for intermediaries like Customs Brokers and the current thinking of the policy makers;
and how the roles and services of Customs Brokers need to be met with capabilities to change to face
the challenges.
Healthy competition is said to increase efficiency and ultimately benefit the consumers. But can
competition in a fragmented market, particularly where the intermediaries lack the bargaining power
can be healthy? What would happen to the Customs Broker, who suffers the Regulation Fatigue more
than anyone else?
The Customs Brokers are more Globally integrated than ever before; hence, addressing the multitude
of technical, regulatory and futuristic issues involved in the international trade, an equivalent theme
could be- Customs Broker: Defining The Supply Chains Of Tomorrow.
The convention will deal with these newly emerged trends and changes, not just with the national
perspective but also in a global perspective, mapping the practices in the rest of the world. Other
topics for consideration in the convention are sustainable and inclusive growth aspects of the business
with special focus on MSME Sector along with important issue such as Scenario at ICDs/CFSs &
Gateway issues, with reference to the most critical interventions required.
The Speakers will highlight the role of Customs Brokers and Customer expectations in the context
of total service concepts; they will also deal with how to fulfill the regulatory requirements to the
expectation of the concerned authorities, particularly the Customs Department. The speakers will
discuss the ground level issues with respect to the above with special reference to the policies and
implementation, following the methodology of building awareness to build capabilities.
The Finance Minister introduced the Finance Bill, 2013 in Lok Sabha on 28th
February, 2013. In the
Non Tariff Changes in Customs law proposed through the Finance Bill, 2013, the Section 146 of CA’
62 is being substituted to change the nomenclature of “customs house agents” to “customs brokers”
considering the global practice and internationally accepted nomenclature.
One of the great paradoxes of life is that, though we as humans generally like stability and resist
change, it is only through change and adversity that we can grow and progress. In a day and age
when change is completely pervasive in life, the current norm will likely be obsolete in just a few
years—sooner, in many cases. The new Avatar of the ‘Customs House Agent’ as ‘Customs Broker’
will not be namesake. As much as Change is inevitable, each Change brings New Opportunities,
and the Customs Brokers will need to look for New Horizons. Historically, the Customs Brokers have
been adaptive species with an aptitude for attitudinal change and courage to face the reality. They
have equipped themselves with the capabilities including professional infrastructure of well-trained and
professional staff.
It is time ripe for each Customs Broker to ‘Create History’, and thus the theme - Customs Broker:
New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League.

13. India is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-
most populous country with over 1.2 billion people, and
the most populous democracy in the world. Indian cultural
history spans more than 4,500 years. According to the World
Bank, as of 2011, the Indian economy is nominally worth
US$1.848 trillion; it is the tenth-largest economy by market
exchange rates, and is, at US$4.457 trillion, the third-largest
by purchasing power parity. With its average annual GDP
growth rate of 5.8% over the past two decades, and reaching
6.1% during 2011–12, India is one of the world’s fastest-
growing economies. India’s telecommunication industry, the
world’s fastest-growing, added 227 million subscribers during
the period 2010–11. At the end of 2011,
Delhi is a city that bridges two different worlds. Old Delhi,
once the capital of Islamic India, is a labyrinth of narrow
lanes lined with crumbling havelis and formidable mosques. In
contrast, the imperial city of New Delhi created by the British
Raj is composed of spacious, tree-lined avenues and imposing
government buildings. Delhi has been the seat of power for
several rulers and many empires for about a millennium. Many
a times the city was built, destroyed and then rebuilt here.
Interestingly, a number of Delhi’s rulers played a dual role, first
as destroyers and then as creators.
In Delhi, you will discover that the city is sprinkled with
dazzling gems: captivating ancient monuments, fascinating
museums and art galleries, architectural wonders, a vivacious
performing-arts scene, fabulous eating places and bustling
markets.

14. Climate
The climate of Delhi is a monsoon-influenced humid
subtropical climate with high variation between summer
and winter, in terms of both temperatures and rainfall. The
temperature varies from 46 °C in summers to around 0 °C in
winters. Summers are long, from early April to October, with
the monsoon season in the middle of the summer. Winter
starts in November and peaks in January. The average annual
rainfall is 714 mm, most of which is during the months in July
and August.
Cuisine
Delegates will enjoy a wide spread of Indian & Global cuisine
for break fast and dinner with live counters & deserts with each
meal having different dishes. For cocktails premium liquors will
be served during the evening entertainment programs along
with hot Hot Devours.
Travel
Delhi is very well connected to international airports. Given
the modern infrastructure and tourism, transportation has
become easy and more convenient. One can choose to travel
by road, rail or air from any destination in India. The Delhi
Metro, a mass rapid transit system built and operated by Delhi
Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), serves many parts of Delhi as
well as the satellite city of Gurgaon and Noida.
