The new regulation prohibits the import of specific textile items, including flax tow and waste, jute and other textile bast fibres (raw or retted), various jute and flax yarns, and woven fabrics of flax or unbleached jute, from Bangladesh through any land port on the India- Bangladesh border. Instead, these goods are now only permitted for import into India via the Nhava Sheva Seaport. These restrictions do not apply to Bangladeshi exports transiting through India to Nepal or Bhutan, but re-export of these specific goods from Nepal or Bhutan back to India is not permitted. The instruction directs customs officers to be aware of these new import regulations.
