However, it may be clarified that the mandatory electronic submission of certain category of applications i.e. Advance Licence (excluding Para 4.7 and DFRC applications), Advance Licence for Annual Requirement, EPCG Licence and DEPB Licence (for EDI shipping bills from notified EDI Ports w.e.f. 01.10.2005) with digital signature on the DGFT website will continue.
