Revalidation of Import Authorisation for Restricted Items (except SCOMET items).
Attention is invited to Para 2.13 of Handbook of Procedures (Vol.I) 2009-2014
which provides that RA concerned may revalidate Import Authorisation on merits
for six months from date of expiry of validity. Para 2.13.3 further provides
that an application for revalidation (including for restricted items), may be
made to Regional Authority (RA) concerned. RA would consider such application as
per Government rules/notifications and where DGFT is concerned authority,
original application shall be submitted to RA concerned and self-attested copy
of same shall be submitted to DGFT.
2. It is clarified that the first revalidation of six months of Import
Authorization for restricted items (except SCOMET items) from the date of expiry
of initial validity period, will be endorsed by the Regional Authorities at
their level without making reference to DGFT(Hqrs). But, the applications for
revalidation of import authorizations beyond six months from the date of its
expiry shall be forwarded to DGFT (HQ) for consideration.
3. This issues with the approval of Competent Authority.
