Representation Before Customs, CBIC & DGFT Authorities

Customs-related proceedings — whether involving the assessment of a consignment, a departmental audit, a dispute over classification or valuation, or a licensing matter with the DGFT — require experienced representation by advisors who understand both the law and the practical workings of customs administration. We represent clients before Customs Officers and Commissionerates across all phases of assessment and inquiry, before the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) on policy and procedural matters, and before the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) on licensing and export entitlement issues. Our representations are thorough, well-prepared, and focused on achieving the best available outcome for the client.

Key highlights:

• Representation before Customs Officers and Customs Commissionerates
• Liaison with CBIC on policy matters and complex classification or valuation issues
• DGFT representation for import/export licensing and entitlement matters
• Preparation of written submissions for hearings and departmental proceedings
• Coordination with customs brokers, logistics partners, and port authorities
