DESCRIPTION

Customs Broker: New Paradigm New Opportunities New League The Convention is a great platform: 1. You get updates of the sector with insight from experts 2. The knowledge sessions give you an in depth overview of the business and will help you chart the course for future. 3. Networking opportunities in a structured format and Trade Fair are part of the convention 4. While we take our business sessions seriously, for the family, the accompanying person programmes and traditional hospitality means ... great Entertainment, Fine Spirits and multi cuisine meals with live counters. Even for breakfast you’ll relish one of the largest spread. As most of us are families in business, we’ll have session for entire family on topics related to wealth management and family business issues. ‘Customs Broker: New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League’ is the convention theme this time. The theme is both topical and apt for the phase we’re passing through as an industry. The business sessions will help you to help yourselves, unfold the emerging situation, get multiple perspectives with insight into global practices and will help you chart the way forward. One of the great paradoxes of life is that, though we as humans generally like stability and resist change, it is only through change and adversity that we can grow and progress. In a day and age when change is completely pervasive in life, the current norm will likely be obsolete in just a few years—sooner, in many cases. The new Avatar of the ‘Customs House Agent’ as ‘Customs Broker’ will not be namesake. As much as Change is inevitable, each Change brings New Opportunities, and the Customs Brokers will need to look for New Horizons. Historically, the Customs Brokers have been adaptive species with an aptitude for attitudinal change and courage to face the reality. They have equipped themselves with the capabilities including professional infrastructure of well-trained and professional staff. It is time ripe for each Customs Broker to ‘Create History’, and thus the theme - Customs Broker: New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League. The ‘Customs Broker’, aka ‘Custom House Agent’ has always been an important catalyst, playing a crucial role in facilitating trade around the World. Vast expansion in International Trade owes much to a revolution in transport sector and communications sector; equally, it owes to the international trade related professions, particularly those that facilitated the regulatory compliance as a bridge between the Customer and the Authorities. The Customs Broker has played a pivotal role, offering not just service of customs clearance, but in addition meeting every conceivable need of the customer by providing a wide array of complete logistics solutions packaged with other value- enhancing services and by assisting customers in duty drawback, trade and tariff matters, and further bringing about substantial synergies.

Vast expansion in International Tradeowes much to a revolution in transport sector and communications sector; equally, it owes to theinternational trade related professions, particularly those that facilitated the regulatory compliance asa bridge between the Customer and the Authorities. The Customs Broker has played a pivotal role,offering not just service of customs clearance, but in addition meeting every conceivable need ofthe customer by providing a wide array of complete logistics solutions packaged with other value-enhancing services and by assisting customers in duty drawback, trade and tariff matters, and furtherbringing about substantial synergies.The Global Trade Stakeholders, including the Government Authorities, in the past few years, havebeen compelled to give prime importance to Secure, Safe, Environmental Friendly, Resilient, andyet Cost Efcient & Speed Optimized Global Supply Chains. These developments, have not justchanged the structure of transport but in addition have also inuenced the Regulatory Framework,leading to the law makers introduce new standards such as KYC (Know Your Customer guidelinesso that the service providers are not used intentionally or unintentionally by importers / exporterswho indulge in fraudulent activities), AEO (Authorised Economic Operator with authorizing criteria ofLaw Compliance, Internal Control System, Financial Solvency and Security Management), and SelfAssessment with Audit Based Control.The term globalization is really a complex set of changes. The World Trade Organization gives primeimportance to trade facilitation. Minimisation of transaction costs is of utmost importance to both toManufacturers & Customers, right up to Individual consumers. The Governments therefore cannotbe indifferent to keeping transaction costs at the lowest level. The WCO agrees that the role ofCustoms is becoming more complex and that there is a need for increased collaboration betweenCustoms administrations, with other government agencies, and with the trade. The WCO thereforehas initiatives such as MRA (Mutual Recognition Arrangement is accepting counter-partys AEOprogram in the same manner as Countrys own AEO program) and Capacity Building (collaborativewith trade participation). Strategically important initiatives include Coordinated Border Management,the Economic Competitiveness Package, Information Management And Data Quality, and the GloballyNet-worked Customs.With all these changes, it will be nave to expect that the Customs Brokers can continue to conductthe business in the same manner as they did for past 50 years i.e. after enactment of the Customs Act62. The Customs Brokers need to consider the prevailing situation in the international market place, 6. a playground for intermediaries like Customs Brokers and the current thinking of the policy makers;and how the roles and services of Customs Brokers need to be met with capabilities to change to facethe challenges.Healthy competition is said to increase efciency and ultimately benet the consumers. But cancompetition in a fragmented market, particularly where the intermediaries lack the bargaining powercan be healthy? What would happen to the Customs Broker, who suffers the Regulation Fatigue morethan anyone else?The Customs Brokers are more Globally integrated than ever before; hence, addressing the multitudeof technical, regulatory and futuristic issues involved in the international trade, an equivalent themecould be- Customs Broker: Dening The Supply Chains Of Tomorrow.The convention will deal with these newly emerged trends and changes, not just with the nationalperspective but also in a global perspective, mapping the practices in the rest of the world. Othertopics for consideration in the convention are sustainable and inclusive growth aspects of the businesswith special focus on MSME Sector along with important issue such as Scenario at ICDs/CFSs &Gateway issues, with reference to the most critical interventions required.The Speakers will highlight the role of Customs Brokers and Customer expectations in the contextof total service concepts; they will also deal with how to fulll the regulatory requirements to theexpectation of the concerned authorities, particularly the Customs Department. The speakers willdiscuss the ground level issues with respect to the above with special reference to the policies andimplementation, following the methodology of building awareness to build capabilities.The Finance Minister introduced the Finance Bill, 2013 in Lok Sabha on 28thFebruary, 2013. In theNon Tariff Changes in Customs law proposed through the Finance Bill, 2013, the Section 146 of CA62 is being substituted to change the nomenclature of customs house agents to customs brokersconsidering the global practice and internationally accepted nomenclature.One of the great paradoxes of life is that, though we as humans generally like stability and resistchange, it is only through change and adversity that we can grow and progress. In a day and agewhen change is completely pervasive in life, the current norm will likely be obsolete in just a fewyearssooner, in many cases. The new Avatar of the Customs House Agent as Customs Brokerwill not be namesake. As much as Change is inevitable, each Change brings New Opportunities,and the Customs Brokers will need to look for New Horizons. Historically, the Customs Brokers havebeen adaptive species with an aptitude for attitudinal change and courage to face the reality. Theyhave equipped themselves with the capabilities including professional infrastructure of well-trained andprofessional staff.It is time ripe for each Customs Broker to Create History, and thus the theme - Customs Broker:New Paradigm, New Opportunities, New League. 7.

Old Delhi,once the capital of Islamic India, is a labyrinth of narrowlanes lined with crumbling havelis and formidable mosques. Incontrast, the imperial city of New Delhi created by the BritishRaj is composed of spacious, tree-lined avenues and imposinggovernment buildings. Delhi has been the seat of power forseveral rulers and many empires for about a millennium. Manya times the city was built, destroyed and then rebuilt here.Interestingly, a number of Delhis rulers played a dual role, rstas destroyers and then as creators.In Delhi, you will discover that the city is sprinkled withdazzling gems: captivating ancient monuments, fascinatingmuseums and art galleries, architectural wonders, a vivaciousperforming-arts scene, fabulous eating places and bustlingmarkets. 14. ClimateThe climate of Delhi is a monsoon-inuenced humidsubtropical climate with high variation between summerand winter, in terms of both temperatures and rainfall. Thetemperature varies from 46 C in summers to around 0 C inwinters. Summers are long, from early April to October, withthe monsoon season in the middle of the summer. Winterstarts in November and peaks in January. The average annualrainfall is 714 mm, most of which is during the months in Julyand August.CuisineDelegates will enjoy a wide spread of Indian & Global cuisinefor break fast and dinner with live counters & deserts with eachmeal having different dishes. For cocktails premium liquors willbe served during the evening entertainment programs alongwith hot Hot Devours.TravelDelhi is very well connected to international airports.
