The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs simplified procedures for handling SEZ export cargo affected by disruption at the Strait of Hormuz. Exporters can cancel LEO/Shipping Bill, and cargo can be returned or re-routed from gateway ports without sending it back to SEZ. The process is quick, mostly electronic, and valid till 30 April 2026.
