Import journey · 7 stages

Step 01

Request Received

The importer sends a clearance request as soon as cargo is bound for port.

Share your invoice, packing list, and sailing schedule. Your file is opened the same day and a licensed agent is assigned — nothing sits waiting at the port.

Step 02

Laila and Co. Takes Over

A licensed agent from Laila and Co. C&F Pvt Ltd takes ownership of every customs formality.

One accountable handler coordinates the port, customs, and transport on your behalf. You get clear updates instead of chasing paperwork across counters.

Step 03

Documents & Declaration

Every document is verified, then the import declaration is filed.

Commercial invoice, bill of lading, packing list, and certificates are checked line by line before the declaration is submitted to customs electronically.

Step 04

Review & Examination

Customs validates the declaration and may examine the cargo.

Officers review the filing against your documents. If an inspection is called, your agent attends it and clears queries on the spot so the file keeps moving.

Step 05

Duty Decision

Assessment sets the route — duty-free straight through, or dutiable via the bank.

Customs classifies the goods and fixes the duty. The journey splits here into two paths, and both reunite at a single receipt before continuing as one.

Decision point

Does this shipment owe duty?

A
Duty Free

No duty payable

Exemption confirmed
Customs confirms the duty-free status.
Receipt issued
A nil-duty receipt is generated.
B
Dutiable

Settled through the bank

Duty fixed
The payable amount is assessed.
Paid at bank
Duty is deposited via the banking channel.
Receipt issued
The payment receipt is verified.

One receipt

Both routes arrive at the same receipt — the journey continues as one toward permit and release.

Step 06

Permit & Release

The permit is issued and your cargo is cleared to leave the port.

Receipt verified, permit in hand — release orders are processed and onward transport is arranged without delay.

Step 07

Delivered

Goods exit the port and roll toward your warehouse.

Delivery is coordinated to your door with proof of handover. File closed, cargo home.

OUT — cargo released

The importer takes delivery. Journey complete.
