25 April 2025 Dear Sir,

We would like to bring to your kind attention an issue related to a High Seas Purchase transaction carried out during the financial year 2016–17.

At the time of filing the Bill of Entry (BOE), our Customs House Agent (CHA) inadvertently inserted our AD Code (i.e., the buyer's AD Code) instead of the original importer’s AD Code. As a result, the BOE reflects our AD Code, although we were not the original importer.

Due to this discrepancy, our bank is reflecting pending entries in the ORM system, and is levying charges of Rs. 1,000 + GST per BOE for the same.

We kindly request your guidance on the following:

Whether it is possible at this stage to request an amendment in the BOE to reflect the correct (original importer’s) AD Code.

We would appreciate your support and direction on how best to proceed in order to resolve this issue and avoid further charges from the bank.
