2. Introduction
Imports and exports through courier are becoming
increasingly popular. At present, the courier clearances
are allowed both under manual mode as well as
electronic mode. The courier clearances under the
manual mode are governed by Courier Imports and
Exports (Clearance) Regulations, 1998, and courier

Courier Imports and Exports (Electronic Declaration
and Processing) Regulations, 2010.

3. Introduction
The courier goods are cleared through a fast track
basis on observance of simple formalities by
courier companies. Examination of parcels is kept
to the minimum and clearance is allowed on the
basis of selective scrutiny of documents. The duty,
where leviable, is paid by the courier company on
behalf of importers / exporters before taking
delivery of the parcels.

4. Mode of Transport
The facility of imports and exports through courier
mode is allowed only to those courier companies
which are registered by the Customs. These courier
companies are called "Authorized Couriers".
The courier parcels are normally carried by passenger /
cargo aircrafts. In the case of clearance through Land
Customs Stations (LCS), other mode of transport is
used. Both of them are allowed to file the Courier
Import Manifest.

At present, the facility of courier clearance under
the manual mode is available at Customs airports in
Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Calcutta, Bangalore,
Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Trivandrum, Cochin,
Coimbatore and Land Customs Stations at Petrapole
and Gojadanga. The courier clearances under the
electronic mode of Customs clearance will be soon

6. Goods allowed import through courier
Except for certain excluded categories, all goods are allowed to
be imported through the courier mode. The exclusion of certain
categories of goods is based upon the fact that these broadly
require specific conditions to be fulfilled under any other Act or
rule or regulation such as testing of samples etc. on reference to
the relevant authorities or experts before their clearance. In
these cases, due to additional compliance requirements, the
assessment and clearance takes time. These goods, therefore, do
not fit into the scheme, which envisages Customs clearance on a
fast track basis. Further, air terminals and LCS are not equipped
to handle certain goods
