Madam/Sir,
De-notification of Inland Container Depots/Container Freight Stations/Air Freight Stations
It has come to the notice of the Board that difficulties are being faced by the custodians of Inland Container Depots (ICDs) and Container Freight Stations (CFSs) when they intend to wind up the operations in the facility and approach Customs formations for de-notification of the same. Reportedly, there is inordinate delay in the de-notification in the absence of a specified procedure for de-notification. It is also reported that in such cases, the Customs field formations face challenges while ensuring timely payment of Cost Recovery Charges and disposal of un-cleared, seized and confiscated goods which are prerequisites for the de-notification.

The Board has examined the matter. The
