Customs brokers must register online: CBIC

The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has made it mandatory for the customs brokers to register themselves online to integrate them in the "paperless" Customs regime. The CBIC recently launched an online portal called Customs Brokers Licence Management System (CBLMS) and has asked all customs zones to register all customs brokers on it by October 31. With the implementation of CBLMS, the process of management of customs brokers will become completely online.
