Good morning, Gopala Krishna!

You’re right—Section 149 of the Customs Act deals with amendment of bills of entry for importers.


For Exporters — Amendment of Shipping Bills

  • The corresponding section for exporters is Section 157 of the Customs Act, 1962.

  • Section 157 allows the amendment of shipping bills and export declarations before clearance.

  • This enables exporters to correct or modify the shipping bill details if needed, similar to how importers amend bills of entry under Section 149.
