DGFT Extends Timelines for RELIEF Export Facilitation

What changed

The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has issued Notification 37/2026-27, amending previous notifications to extend timelines under Component II of the Resilience & Logistics Intervention for Export Facilitation (RELIEF) Intervention. This adjustment modifies Notification No. 65/2025-26 and 21/2026-27.

Why it matters for shipments

The extension of timelines under the RELIEF program may affect the scheduling and logistics planning for exporters relying on these interventions. This could impact documentation and filing processes for those involved in export activities, particularly in terms of compliance with the adjusted timelines. The specific changes in deadlines or procedures are not detailed in the notification summary, so it's crucial to verify how these adjustments might apply to your shipments.
