Customs eases import process at Bhairahawa border over MRP rule

Importers can now clear goods after submitting written self-declarations stating they will affix labels with MRP, brand and expiry details before market distribution.

The import process at the Bhairahawa border, which had become difficult due to the mandatory requirement to mention the Maximum Retail Price (MRP) at the customs point, has started easing following facilitation measures introduced by the Department of Customs.
