FAQ :

The main purpose is to expedite customs clearance for COVID-related imports handled by the Indian Red Cross Society.

The imports are facilitated by the Ministry of External Affairs and/or imported by the Indian Red Cross Society.

Permissions, licenses, or authorizations from other government departments are deemed to have been given and do not need to be referred to those agencies.

This applies to COVID-related imports, including medical oxygen, equipment for oxygen production and distribution, oxygen therapy equipment, COVID-19 vaccines, and other relief materials.

Customs formations are requested to give the highest priority to these consignments and facilitate their clearance in the shortest possible time.
