Preface
This book provides crucial information and explains in a lucid, professional manner the basic elements
of the Customs Act. It also plays an important role in developing knowledge in Customs Rules and
Regulations, especially to improve knowledge the candidates who seek to make excellent career in
Clearing & Forwarding sector. Though the regulation examinations are very critical to clear, the book
is designed in a such way that one can easily understand the Act, Rules and Regulations of Customs.
As we all know that through reading and clear understanding of the Customs Act, 1962 is fundamental
to pass through the regulation examinations. The rules are complex. This book highlights the relevant
Sections and Rules contained in the Customs Act.
To study outlines the various tools, such as Questions and Answers and suggested answers for the
past examination papers which are at the disposal of the Candidates wishing to improve their knowledge.
We believe it is essential that a qualified CHA has a thorough knowledge of certain profession specific
subjects plus a sufficient knowledge of the Act, Rules, Regulations etc., so that they can communicate
with a specialist professional. This results in less confusion, misunderstanding and hopefully less
contractual risk. Professionally qualified personnel are consequently ideally placed to undertake the
key executive roles in the shipping service sector.
This timely book makes an effort to peel back some the complexities, and helps developing knowledge
and may assist them in their efforts to grow their career though EXIM trade.
The true value of this book is only gained if the candidate reads the entire book thoroughly.
Though I faced innumerable odds during compilation of this compendium, I did not give up and I
sincerely hope that you will receive it very warmly as a tool to help you in passing regulation
examinations by aiding you in serving as a ready reckoner of data on the Customs Act, Rules and
Regulations.
To acknowledge a debt is not to pay it, but merely to admit you owe it. It this context, I owe so much
to the people who provided valuable support for this venture. Some participated actively; others
helped to lay a foundation over the years. I have been fortunate in my career, having the opportunity
to work with some successful and wise superiors and colleagues.
I sincerely express my thanks to Mr. K.V.Sagar, Mr. K.Venugopal, Ms. V. Gayatri, Ms. Asha, Mr.
Ananth, Ms. P.Latha, Mrs. Hemalatha, Mrs. Lalitha, Mr. Manoj Sharma, Mr.Vicky Chand, Mr.
Dharmarao, Mr. Das, Mr. Dinesh and Mr. Appa Rao for their able assistance in bringing out this
book. With out their enthusiastic support, it would not have been possible for me to complete this
project. I am very much thankful to each of them.
I would like to acknowledge with grateful thanks the generous secretarial help of my Colleagues and
Friends. They all have provided me with encouragement, forbearance and above all, complete
professionalism to enable this enlarged and enriched book to be possible, for which I am greatly
indebted.
Finally, I would like to acknowledge with grateful thanks the generous help of Shri. G.J. Prasad Garu

F o r e w o r d
The Customs Act is like a veritable Bhagavad-Gita every time you
read a Section, you were likely to get a new meaning out of it. The
procedures are evolving on a day to day basis keeping pace with the
changing trade patterns and need of importing and exporting community.
It is therefore very difficult for a new comer who understands the Act and
gets a grip on the procedures. This compilation by Sri Srinivasa Rao
would be of immense help to the aspirants of CHALR Examinations.
Especially the Question Bank and the Examination papers will be very
useful to the applicants.
Many concepts are clarified in a very lucid language. The book would
also be very useful to new officers joining the departments who are yet to
get clear concepts. I specially commend this book to young Preventive
Officers, Examiners and Appraisers.
I am sure the readers of this Book would benefit immensely from
this.
