June 16, 2003

The Head/Principal Offices of
All Authorized Dealers in Foreign Exchange.

Dear Sirs,

EXEMPTION FROM ‘E’ FORM PROCEDURE FOR
EXPORT OF EDUCATIONAL BOOKS

With a view to further liberalize the Foreign Exchange regime, it has now been decided that export of educational course books for schools and colleges for Pakistani students and other running under respective Embassies abroad are exempt from ‘E’ Form procedure.

2. In this connection, following paragraph may be added as new para in Chapter XII, Foreign Exchange Manual (Eighth Edition, 2002): -

Para ‘15-A’.
i) Export of educational course books for schools and colleges for Pakistani students and other running under respective Embassies abroad are exempt from ‘E’ form procedure. While making such transactions, Exchange Policy Department, SBP BSC (Bank) will issue a No Objection Certificate with the condition that exporter will obtain an endorsement from the Customs Authorities on reverse of the NOC about Name/Title, Number of books exported and their invoice value. The date of export should also be mentioned specifically. The Exporters will submit a statement on monthly basis to Exchange Policy Department, SBP BSC (Bank) showing the amount due and receipts on account of foreign exchange arising therefrom.
The NOC issued in view of above exemption would be initially valid for a period of one year only which may be renewed subject to satisfactory performance. However, if exporter fails to submit the required statement or keeps large balances abroad, the facility should not be renewed and the case should be submitted to Exchange Policy Department, SBP BSC (Bank), Enforcement Section for necessary action at their end.

ii) While issuing NOC, Exchange Policy Department, SBP BSC (Bank) should advise the Customs Authorities that the items are exempt from ‘E’ form procedure.

iii) The export of above-mentioned items being exempt from E-form procedure will be reported on schedule A-1/O-1 with authentication of exempted “E-form”.

The specified code for the same whichever is applicable, mentioned under the Section X, Chapter 49 of HS Classification of coding system may be used.
