Custom Examination Procedure For Export In Pakistan

We received lots of emails asking the question about Custom Examination Procedure For Export In Pakistan, therefore in this ultimate guide we are going to discuss the complete procedure to clear container from customs examination.

Type of Consignment Mode in WeBoc

1. Single GD——- (Full Container Load)
2. Multiple GDs — (Part Container)
3. LCL Shipment— (Less Container Load)

Firstly, In the single GD container will gate-in through the Pre-gate,  Driver gets ER which is provided by Pre-gate representative then submit provided ER to the terminal (QICT/PICT/KICT etc..) and the terminal will complete gate in WeBoc. then Pakistan customs representative will decide whether to directly loading allow the container to load on the predetermining vessel or call examination to examine the container.

Q) How to find Container is Release Directly (Loading Allow) or Customs Mark Container for Examination?

A) When gate-in completed, There are two ways to find Container or Gd status:

1- Container or Gd status can be confirmed in WeBboc (As mention in above image) using WeBoc user id and password.

2-  In Qict Web Site, If hold description shows billing hold and release code shows NPCR (Non Paccs Container Released) or AL (Allow Loading ) it’s mean container is allowed to load on the vessel and If hold description shows customs hold then maybe a container in the examination.

When Pakistan Customs directly loading allow the container then take the remaining steps to clear it.

– Check your container `s status in Dp world `s website if hold description show Billing hold.  
– Send Form-E scan copy on following address (export.documents@qict.com.pk )
– Now finally pay your terminal charges at Dp World or NLC Karachi.
