Subject: Implementationof RMS for processing of Duty Drawback Claim- reg.

Kind attention of all the Importers, Exporters, Custom Brokers and all other stakeholders is invited to CBIC Advisory No. 20/2021 dated 26.07.2021 issued by Directorate General of Systems, ICES on the above mentioned subject. In this regard, kind reference is also invited to CBIC Circular No. 15/2021-Customs dated 15.07.2021 enabling the RMS based processing of drawback claims. Accordingly, the risk-based processing of the shipping bill claims of duty drawback under Section 75 of Customs Act, 1962 is enabled after the corresponding EGMs have been filed. Under the new mechanism of risk-based processing of drawback claims for shipping bills, the shipping bills will be routed to RMS post successful filing of EGM. Based on RMS risk-based processing, the SBs would either be facilitated for drawback or be routed to the proper officer of Customs for verification and processing. For the facilitated claims, the shipping bill would automatically come to Scroll-in queue after successful EGM filing for generation of scroll. For the non-facilitated cases, the SBs would be routed to the proper officer for processing the drawback claims as being done presently. These non-facilitated SBs will also have RMS instructions for verifications related to Drawback processing. 2. Reports have been made available in the Dbk_AC and Dbk_SUP roles listing the SBs which were facilitated by RMS for Drawback scroll. The same will also be indicated in the temporary Dbk scroll with a special flag.
