Customs department urges exporters to be tolerant
PTI - Kolkata
The customs department has urged local exporters to be more tolerant with revenue
officials dealing with disputed cases. The chief commissioner of customs (east
zone) Mr Subrata Basu told exporters at a meeting organised by the Federation
of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) here that there should exist mutual respect
between customs officials and the exporters.
He said that export bodies should not utilise open house sessions arranged occasionally
to exert pressure on the customs officials.
Saying that there was a need to create an atmosphere of trust, Mr Basu said
that exporters should avoid going to appellate tribunals. He said that the customs
department had also installed an electronic data interchange (EDI) terminal
at Haldia for better trade facilitation.
