EOUs – Exemption – Import of Pharma Samples

By Vijay Kumar

GOVERNMENT has amended Notification No. 52/2003 – Cus to add the following to the list in Annexure -I.

“15B. Pharmaceuticals samples in retail packs (repacked from bulk packs exported by the unit) imported for retention or stability in terms of any statutory requirements.”

This would mean that the units can import without duty sample packets made from the bulk packs exported by them – if required statutorily.
