Courier bills of entry in India cover express shipments filed through authorized courier companies, often on consolidated manifests, with simplified procedures below full commercial BoE thresholds.
Courier imports in India
Authorized couriers file courier bills of entry on consolidated manifests for express shipments. E-commerce and B2C importers must know whether the courier clears or the buyer must appoint a CHA for formal BoE.
Thresholds and simplified procedures
Low-value shipments may use simplified channels; above statutory limits a full commercial BoE on ICEGATE is required. Confirm current CBIC notifications and courier policies.
Compliance
Provide accurate description, value, and HS to avoid misdeclaration. Link to home consumption for containerized trade.
