Customs Circular 17/2026 Dated 31/03/2026 – Removal of Value Limit of Rs 10 Lakh for Commercial Export through Courier 

The circular removes the Rs 10 lakh value cap on courier export consignments, enabling greater flexibility for exporters, including non-e-commerce goods. It also introduces a Return to Origin (RTO) mechanism allowing re-export of uncleared or unclaimed imported goods after 15 days, thereby reducing congestion at courier terminals and improving logistics efficiency. Also, the process for re-import of returned or rejected goods has been simplified through a risk-based framework, replacing cumbersome verification requirements.
