A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is treating BEE labelling compliance as the sole clearance requirement and overlooking the Legal Metrology product approval obligation, which operates as an independent parallel regime. A consignment carrying a BEE-compliant label but lacking the Legal Metrology Registration and Product Approval Certificate will be held at port pending upload of document code 101lm1 in e-Sanchit; the proper officer is specifically directed to verify this document even on PGA-facilitated bills not routed through the PGA for NOC.
