What is a customs bonded warehouse?
Your cargo lands. Your cash stays free.
A customs bonded warehouse is a customs-licensed facility where imported goods are stored without paying import duty on arrival. Duty and IGST are paid only when you clear the goods for use or sale in India, and no import duty is paid if they’re re-exported. In India, these warehouses are licensed under the Customs Act, 1962.
Units in Sonipat's Kundli and Rai industrial areas can use ICD Sonipat and ICD Barhi. File an into-bond bill of entry at the ICD and the cargo moves under customs seal to our bonded facility in Delhi NCR, with duty deferred until you clear it.

How it works
How a bonded warehouse works
Follow one container from the port to your customer. Four steps, one team.
-
Chapter 01
Arrival
A reach stacker lifts your container at ICD Sonipat or ICD Barhi. We file the into-bond bill of entry, so the cargo moves into bond instead of paying duty at the port.

Chapter 03
In bond
We unload the pallets into a customs-controlled warehouse zone and record every lot. Your duty stays deferred while the goods sit here.

Chapter 04
Release
When you need stock, the path splits. File an ex-bond bill of entry, pay duty only on what you clear, and we deliver it. Or file a shipping bill and re-export it with no import duty.

Customs bonded warehouse FAQs.
Still have questions? Talk to our bonded team
Can cargo from ICD Sonipat and ICD Barhi go into a bonded warehouse?
Yes. File an into-bond bill of entry at ICD Sonipat or ICD Barhi and the container moves under customs seal to our bonded facility in Delhi NCR, without paying duty at the ICD. Duty and IGST are paid later, at ex-bond clearance, and only on the quantity you take out.
Do I pay duty at ICD Sonipat if the cargo goes into bond?
No. With an into-bond bill of entry, duty and IGST are assessed but not paid at ICD Sonipat. You pay at ex-bond clearance, at the rate in force on that day, and only on the lots you clear. Goods you re-export from bond don’t attract Indian import duty.
Can you deliver cleared lots to customers in Sonipat?
Yes. Keep the full shipment in bond and clear it lot by lot as orders come in from Sonipat and the rest of NCR. For each lot we file the ex-bond bill of entry, you pay duty on that lot only, and we deliver it to the address you give us.
