Shipping bill for Chad: what and why
The shipping bill is India's customs export declaration. It proves that the goods were cleared for export from India and shows the port, value and description of the cargo. It is filed electronically through ICEGATE and printed by the exporter or customs broker.
Many African customs authorities and banks ask for legalised commercial invoices and certificates of origin, especially for shipments paid by letter of credit.
Companies dealing with Chad are most often asked for a legalised shipping bill during proof of export from India, as well as for tender and contract compliance and duty or origin verification by the importer.
A shipping bill issued in India is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Embassy of Chad in New Delhi.
