Customs Broker's Licence Exam Notified

THE DG, Inspection, Customs and Central Excise has announced the examination for issue of licence to act as Customs Brokers under the Customs Brokers Licencing Regulation, 2013. The examination is to be held on 31.01.2014 and the last date for receipt of application form is 15.11.2013.

This is fine, but what about the Custom House Agents who existed prior to the coming in to force of the Customs Brokers regime. Are they converted into Customs Brokers or are they illegally functioning in the Custom Houses?
