KARACHI: Chief Collector Enforcement South Zahid Khokhar has said the Pakistan Customs is trying its best to provide best facilities to the exporters and the examinations of export consignments are cleared at the earliest.
“There is no refund and rebate claims pending with the Enforcement South Collectorate, however, if any, exporter identifies the issue, the same would be paid at the earliest,” he said this while addressing exporters at Pakistan Hosiery Manufacturers Association.
Collector MCC Exports Dr Saifuddin Junejo, Collector Exports Port Qasim Agha Shahid Majeed and Deputy Collector Ali Aijaz were also present on the occasion.
Zahid Khokhar said that smugglers involved in gold smuggling caused major loss to the national exchequer and these smugglers got memberships of the Pakistan Gems and Jewelry Association by changing their pictures. And, after that these people imported gold by using fake or forged E-form through Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP).
“The scanners have been installed for the clearance of consignments, but the staff is not much trained,” Zahid Khokhar added.
