Subject : Implementation of Module for Transshipment of Cargo from a Seaport to

Another Seaport in ICES – Regarding.

1. Kind attention of Importers, Steamer Agents, Terminals, CHAs, Trade and all other
stakeholders is invited to the procedure of movement of containers to ICDs/CFSs. A new module
for sea to sea transhipment is being implemented in ICES 1.5 w.e.f. 07.02.2014

[Link], a Module exists for Transshipment of FCL cargo from Seaport to ICD/CFSs in
ICES. There will be no change in the procedure for transshipment movement to ICDs and
container movement to CFS.

3. A module for processing of Transshipment of FCL cargo from Seaport to another Seaport in
ICES is now proposed to be implemented in ICES. Transhipment movement may be through
Road, Rail or Sea. The salient features and detailed procedure for transshipment after the
implementation of this module is given below:

Gateway Port: The port in which the vessel arrived from other countries.

Destination Port: The Port for which the containers are transhipped from other sea port
(Gateway Port)

Destination CFS: The CFS attached to destination port.

4. Features of the Module :

The salient features of the module are as follows:
1. Declaration of Destination Port and CFS in IGM.
2. Filing of transshipment request at Service Center of the Gateway Port.
3. Approval of request by Customs Officer and generation of Transshipment Permit.
4. Option to transship cargo either to Destination Port or directly to a CFS associated with the
Destination Port.
5. Elimination of local IGM at the Destination Port Site.

5) Steamer Agents/Shipping Lines :

a) FRESH FILING OF IGM:
For sea to sea transshipment movement, Steamer Agents/Shipping Lines are requested to follow
the changes introduced for filing of IGM/Consol Manifest and their amendments at Gateway
Port Site as follows:
i) For transshipment of cargo, the field ‘Port of Destination’ was earlier restricted to ICD sites
only. Now it is open to other Sea Sites also. For sea to sea transshipment, in Port of Destination
column, the destination port code has to be furnished.

[ For Eg. For transshipment to a seaport XXX, Destination Port to be INXXX1]

ii) Earlier, CFS movement was allowed only to CFS attached to the local (gateway) port. Now, it
is possible to move cargo to a CFS attached to a remote port (destination) also. This will be
covered under Sea-to-sea transshipment with extended movement up to a remote CFS. Hence,
for cargo movement to CFS attached to remote port, system will allow to specify CFS Code
associated with the Destination Port as mentioned for that line. Thus, for a line, it is now possible
to specify both ‘Port of Destination’ and ‘Port of Discharge’ parameters.

[Port of Destination :INXXX1; port OF Discharge: INXXX1XXX1 which is CFS code]

iii) It is to be noted that the movement to CFS attached to destination port is allowed in this Sea
to Sea Transhipment module in ICES, only when transport is uni-modal i.e., transshipment is
either through road or rail. When transshipment is multimodal (i.e., it involves two different
transport modes i.e Gateway Seaport to Destination Seaport through Sea and destination Seaport
to destination CFS), this module will take care of transshipment only for Gateway Seaport to
Destination Seaport only. Further transshipment from Destination Port to Destination CFS will
continue to be through Non-EDI mode.

iv) For transshipment to any Indian Site, the parameter ‘Cargo Movement’ must be given as ‘TI’.
The code ‘TC’ which is meant for Overseas Transshipment cannot be specified for domestic
transshipment. For local discharge, ‘LC’ code to be specified.

b) AMENDMENT OF IGM/CONSOL FILING:

Above-mentioned changes will also apply for Amendment of Sea IGM, Filing of Consol
Manifest and Amendment of Consol Manifest.

Earlier, Sea IGM Amendment or Consol Filing was not allowed for any cargo line after approval
of TP. For sea-to-ICD transshipment, these restrictions will still continue. However, for sea-to-
sea transshipment, it is now possible to file amendment to IGM or submit Consol Manifest,
subject to the following conditions:

(i) If TP is already approved, modification of Transshipment related parameters like MLO Code
are not allowed.

(ii) If BE is submitted at the destination site, no change in the IGM at the Gateway Site is
allowed with respect to the parameters like Cargo Movement, MLO Code, Destination Port,
Destination CFS, Transporter Code, Mode of Transport, Bond No.

(iii) If BE goes past OOC stage at the destination site, no change in the IGM at the Gateway Site
is allowed with respect to any parameter.
6) TRANSHIPPER – BILL OF TRANSHIPMENT:

As per Section 54 of Customs Act, 1962, Transhipper (who may be MLO/SA or Custodian,
Transporter) has to file Bill of transshipment (TP) request for transshipment of cargo from
current sea site (Gateway Port) to another sea site (Destination Port) or to a CFS attached to the
destination site at Service Centre as given below.

(i) IGM must have been filed at the Gateway site by the SA. Although not mandatory, it is
suggested that Consol manifest may also filed before the filing of the Transshipment request.

(ii) The applicant (or its authorized agent) shall submit the request for transshipment in a paper
form annexed with this Public Notice as Annexure-I with the following information:

a. Agency Type of the Applicant (SL/SA/MLO/TR) (Mandatory)

b. Agency Code of the Applicant (As registered with ICES) (Mandatory)
c. Destination Port Site Code (Port of Destination as per IGM) (Mandatory)
d. Destination CFS Code (Port of Discharge as per IGM. This CFS Code) (Optional)
e. IGM No. and Date (Mandatory)
f. Nature of Cargo (Containerized/Packaged/Cont.+Package)
g. Bond Number (TP bond belonging to either MLO or Transporter)
h. Mode of transport (Road/Train/Sea)
i. Voyage No, IMO Code, Vessel Code, Owner Detail etc (if mode is Sea)
j. Transporter Code, Truck No, Seal No. (s) (if mode is Road)
k. Train No. and Date (if mode is Train)
l. List of line no. (mandatory) and sub-line no. (0 if all sub-lines to be included)
m. Line-wise invoice value (in case of non-containerized cargo)

7. The applicant must ensure the following before filing the request:
a. The above information as mentioned in the TP Request must match with the IGM declaration.
b. If the Mode of Transport is by Sea, then extended movement up to remote CFS is not
permissible.
c. The MLO/Applicant must have a valid TP bond registered at the gateway Port Site with
sufficient Bond and BG balance. This bond number should be specified in the Transshipment
Request and also in the IGM line detail. In case of transshipment by road, the specified bond can
be in the name of the Carrier Agency (Transporter). In this case, additionally bond authority to
the MLO must also be registered (one-time) with the system.
d. The MLO must have a PLA account with requisite balance registered at the Gateway Port Site.
e. BE should have not been filed at the current (Gateway Port) site against any of the lines
specified in the request.

8. The TP request (Annexure I) duly filled to be submitted at the Service Center for entering
into the system. The charges for entering the transshipment request and providing of the
Checklist, the Service Centre would charge ` 22/- including Service Tax for the first 30 line
numbers or 30 containers and for every additional 30 lines or 30 container the service Centre
would charge ` 11/- including service tax. The system will generate the Job No for the entry
made after saving the entered data. After job no generation, the checklist print will be taken and
handed over to the applicant for verification of the entry. The applicant will verify the checklist
and in case of any error, shall indicate the same on the checklist and resubmit the same to the
operator at the service centre for modification. The service centre operator will modify the
request and again generate the checklist. This process shall continue till the applicant approves
the checklist by putting his signature on it and returns it to the operator at Service centre for
submission of the job.

9. The TP request job number will then be submitted by the Service centre operator through the
Submission Option provided in the system. After submission, the TP request will move to the
ICES Primary System where it is validated and then integrated into the ICES Primary System
after necessary validation. The response from ICES Primary travels back to the Service Center
where the acknowledgement is displayed for the information of the Applicant who filed the TP
request.

10. If the validation at the Primary end was successful (that is, TP request was accepted), a
positive acknowledgement indicated by a message to that effect is displayed at the Service
Center. If the validation at the Primary end was unsuccessful (that is, TP request was rejected), a
negative acknowledgement (identified by Error Codes as per list given in Annexure II) are
displayed at the Service Center. A request may have multiple errors.

11. Service Center module also provides facility for re-submission of a rejected request after
necessary modification of the earlier job with modifications. This facility is provided by the
menu option “Replicate TP Job”.

12. If the request filed at the Service Center is successfully validated and accepted at the ICES
Primary, then same gets integrated and listed as a submitted TP request in the queue of the
Superintendent (Transshipment) at the Gateway Port Site after Inward Entry on the IGM is
granted. Each submitted requested is identified by a combination of Job No. and Job date which
is the same as generated in the Service Center. The Superintendent (Transshipment) can select
and open any submitted TP request for necessary processing. The detailed information as entered
at the Service Center can be seen in the system by the Superintendent (Transshipment). In case
of movement by truck, the parameters truck no., seal no. etc as furnished at the Service Center
can be updated if requested by the applicant.

13. The invoice value (if provided during request) can be increased by the Superintendent
(Transshipment)(but cannot be reduced) if so desired. System calculates the Bond and BG value
for the current request. For containerized cargo, the calculation is based on length of containers
and bond rates notified thereof. For non-containerized cargo the calculation is based on the line-
wise invoice value specified.

14. If satisfied, the AC (Transshipment) can proceed to approve the request by clicking on the
appropriate option button. System internally carries out a number of validation checks. These
include

a. Check the consistency of the request with respect to IGM with respect to lines, containers,
MLO Code, Bond No, Port of Destination, Destination CFS etc.
b. Check if transshipment permit or BE on any of the lines have already been filed/ granted.
c. Whether MLO has valid TP bond with requisite balance.
d. If MLO does not have a TP bond, then whether the Transporter has the necessary bond with
sufficient balance and also if the TP bond authority to the MLO is given or not.
e. Whether the MLO has a running PLA account with enough balance to pay for the TP fee.

15. If all the validation checks are satisfied, system carries out following steps:

a. Specified TP Bond is debited with the calculated bond and BG value. Bond records are
updated in system.
b. TP fee is debited from the MLO’s PLA a/c.
c. Specified IGM line and container records are marked so that they become accessible by the
destination Port Site for the purpose of BE processing.
d. TP Permit is granted and a unique TP (SMTP) number is generated.
e. The TP order can be printed from the system from the ACT menu.
f. TP messages will be introduced in due course in order to send EDI version of the TP to various
stakeholders.

16. The Transshipment Permit will allow the applicant to carry the cargo up to the specified
Destination Port. If Destination CFS Code is also specified, and the mode of transport is
Train/Road, then this TP will allow the transshipment directly to the specified CFS without
touching the Destination Port to which the CFS is attached, if possible.

17. As soon as the Sea to Sea TP request is approved the details of the container with TP Number
would be available in GAT role of the Preventive Officer at Gateway Port. By selecting the
container, the Preventive officer at Gateway Port shall enter the seal number if new seal is
affixed and the truck number in the system to generate the gate pass number.

18. TP messages will be introduced in due course in order to send EDI version of the TP to
various stakeholders. Likewise, the recredit of the TP Bond debited for the movement will also
be introduced in due course.

CHA/IMPORTER – B/E FILING:

19. As the Sea to sea transshipment module is being implemented, the existing Service Center
BE module has been modified slightly in order to let the BE get associated with remote IGM
filed at the Gateway Port Site. The Service Center Data Entry screen will ask for additional
parameters in the IGM section. The changes in this section will affect ALL BE filing (across
types of sites) and is not confined only to Sea-to- Sea transshipment cases alone.

20. In the BE IGM section, system will ask whether it is a case of Transshipment. If ‘No’, then
system will proceed with the normal flow of BE filing. There is no change in the subsequent part
of the form. If ‘Yes’, then there are 2 possibilities as of now – (a) Sea-to-ICD and (b) Sea-to-Sea.
System will internally determine the type of transshipment (based on whether the current site is a
Sea Site or ICD Site.)
21. (a) If the current site is a Sea Site, it is a case of Sea-to-Sea Transshipment and system will
capture the following parameters:
a. Gateway Port Site
b. IGM No. and IGM Date (This is same as the Gateway IGM No. and Gateway IGM Date)
c. Inward Date in Gateway IGM.

(b) If the current site is an ICD Site, it is a case of Sea-to-ICD Transshipment and system will
capture the following parameters:
a. Gateway Port Site.
b. IGM No. and IGM Date (Local IGM No. and Local IGM Date would be entered).
c. Gateway IGM No and Gateway IGM Date need to be provided.
d. Inward Date in Gateway IGM.

22. Rest of the form will remain same as before. Accordingly, the declaration form for filing of
Bills of Entries through Service Centre in ICES also modified(Sl. No 9 and Sl. No 10) and the
latest Appendix A for filing the documents through Service centre is annexed to this Public
Notice vide Annexure II. The Importers/CHAs are requested to submit the documents through
service centre with the new format of Appendix A.

23. Likewise, the existing EDI Message Format for filing of Bills of Entries will remain the same
except for minor changes in the instructions which are explained in Annexure III. Similarly,
there will be minor changes in the RES Package (EDI) package for BE Document preparation
also to incorporate the above requirement in BE IGM Section. Some of the parameter options in
BE IGM section will differ for different cases.

1. For Sea-to-Sea Transshipment cases, the parameter ‘Gateway Port Code’ must be provided.
For the fields ‘IGM No., IGM Date and Inward Date’, the Gateway IGM parameters are to be
given. The fields ‘Gateway IGM No. and Date’ are to be left blank.

2. For Sea-to-ICD Transshipment cases, the parameters ‘Gateway Port Code, Gateway IGM No.
and Gateway Inward Date’ are to be given. These are in addition to the local IGM parameters
‘IGM No. and IGM Date’ – which are also to be provided.

3. For non-transshipment cases there is no change.

24. Accordingly, the modified message format in BE IGM section for filing of BE is annexed
with this Public Notice vide Annexure III. Importers/CHAs, those who are all using their own
software for filing of Bills of Entries in ICES are requested to modify the software as per the
message format provided in the Annexure III for filing of Bills of Entries without any problem.
Those who are all using NIC software may download the latest patch available in
[Link] and install the same for filing of Bills of Entries.

25. It is informed that the implementation date of the above said module will be announced in
due course.
26. If any problem is noticed on the above procedure the same may be addressed to Asst
Commissioner (EDI), Custom House, Jawaharlal Nehru Custom House, Nhava Sheva for
necessary action.
