Mumbai’s SEEPZ-SEZ launches postal export facility with new FPO extension
Exporters in the Mumbai SEEPZ Special Economic Zone (SEZ) can now use postal channels for international shipments following the establishment of a Foreign Post Office (FPO) extension within SEEPZ.
The move, notified through Public Notice No. 9/2025 by the Development Commissioner’s office, comes in response to long-standing requests from trade stakeholders. The new facility allows units to file shipping bills online via the SEZ-Online system and complete customs clearance directly at the FPO extension.
As per the notification, parcels will be cleared primarily through examination of marks and numbers, minimizing delays. Once assessed and endorsed by customs, the parcels will be booked by India Post, which will provide tracking details. The process ensures streamlined handling of e-commerce exports while retaining safeguards such as customs oversight and proof of export submission.
The introduction of this facility is expected to give a major fillip to small-value and e-commerce exports from SEEPZ, making global market access quicker and more cost-efficient for exporters, especially MSMEs.
