DEAR EXPERTS,
ACTUALLY, We are a company engaged in the manufacture of electric components. We have availed of the services of a courier company for importing samples.
Such goods were cleared at nil rate of duty, availing of apparent exemption from customs duty. There were no instructions to the courier company from our side to this effect and requirement for the necessary documentation was of the courier. It has been brought to our notice that exemption from customs duty would not be available for the goods imported. We seek your advice as to whether we can be held responsible for the non-payment of customs duty on the said goods.

The courier company files import documents on behalf of the consignee and all applicable duties are payable by the consignee. If any duty is not levied, department can demand such duty from the consignee within 6 months as provided under section 28 of the Customs Act.
