I am directed to refer to this Department’s Office Memorandum F.No.467/104/2001 – Cus-V dated 12th December, 2001 (Circular No. 81 of 2001) wherein guidelines for considering requests for ad-hoc exemption from payment of customs duty under Section 25(2) of the Customs Act, 1962 have been issued. It has generally been observed that the importers are not aware of the correct procedure for seeking ad-hoc exemption as also the details of the documents/information that are required to be submitted along with the request. The importers invariably approach this Ministry only after the goods have arrived at the port of import resulting in payment of heavy demurrage charges.
