The Commerce Ministry has come out with FAQs on policy to keep control on exporters using self-certified system for EU-GSP Registered Exporter System.

In a notification to all in Regional Authorities, Customs Commissionrates and Members of Trade, Customs and Central Board of Excise and Customs, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has sent the FAQs regarding this policy.

Under the Policy, the exporters are supposed to submit fortnightly statements in prescribed format on Statement of Origin issued.

The exporters have also been requested by the DGFT to respond to verification requests by European Union (EU) within prescribed time limit, failing which the Registered Exporter Number (REX) may be annulled.
