Customs Circular 16/2026 Dated 30/03/2026 – SCMTR Transition extended to June 2026 for system Development & Testing 

The implementation of the Sea Cargo Manifest and Transhipment Regulations (SCMTR) has been reviewed. While electronic filing of cargo movement messages between ports has been successfully implemented nationwide, uniform adoption of Stuffing (SF) messages remains incomplete. To address ongoing system development and testing requirements across ICDs, CFSs, SEZs, and gateway ports, the transitional provisions for SCMTR have been extended until 30th June 2026.
