CBIC prescribes measures for smooth implementation of Faceless Assessment under Customs NEW DELHI: The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has issued the circular prescribing measures for smooth implementation of faceless assessment under customs. The CBIC has reviewed the implementation of Faceless Assessment. While the implementation has been largely smooth, the Board’s attention has been drawn to some issues impacting the pace of assessment and clearances of consignments. As the prompt and timely assessment of Bills of Entry and clearance of imported consignments are key objectives of Turant Customs, these issues have been examined and remedial measures have been identified.

Accordingly, the Board prescribes the various measures for Faceless Assessment. Firstly, while addressing the aspect of Continuous Assessment, the Board said that one of the five Working Groups established under the NACs is responsible for timely assessments including resolving related IT issues. The Board further said that in the event of increase in the pendency for a particular NAC/FAG, the NAC Commissioners heading this Working Group shall take urgent measures for co - ordination with other NAC Commissioners/DG Systems for early disposal and resolution of the issues.
