Jaipur Customs has issued Public Notice No. 15/2025 announcing the rollout of Ekal Anubandh – the Single All-India Multi-Purpose Electronic Bond (SEB) and Electronic Bank Guarantee, in line with CBIC Circular No. 04/2025-Cus dated 17 February 2025.

The new system replaces multiple port-wise bonds with a single electronic bond applicable across India. Importers and exporters will now be able to submit one unified bond through ICEGATE, with provisions for electronic stamp duty payment, digital signatures, and online linking of electronic bank guarantees.

The initiative aims to cut costs, save time, and simplify compliance by eliminating repetitive paperwork and administrative delays. According to Jaipur Customs, the phased rollout will be supported by advisories issued by DG Systems, and user feedback will be factored into implementation.

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.
