A ‘Workshop on ATA Carnet’ is being organised by Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) in co-operation with Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Government of India, and is slated to be held on February 26, 2009 at Mayfair Banquets, Worli, Mumbai. The workshop aims at familiarising the industry representatives with operational aspects of using an ATA Carnet. The Carnet holder will also be briefed about his/her Rights and Obligations.
The workshop is being promoted by the organisers as an effective platform for the industry to discuss issues involved in temporary import/export of goods and hence benefit from the deliberations of the session.
The ATA Carnet is an internationally accepted customs document used by members of the exporting community from India, to travel abroad with commercial samples for participating in an exhibition / trade fair, business promotion tour or for a film shoot.
Dr Vaijayanti Pandit, Director of FICCI, said “FICCI has been organising several workshops to create awareness about this important international instrument. In the recent past, such workshops were organised in Vadodara, Chennai & Hyderabad. In continuity with the task of capacity building through spreading general awareness, it has been decided to organise next workshop on ATA Carnet in Mumbai.”
FICCI, as the apex chamber, is the National Issuing and Guaranteeing Association (NIGA) for issuing and guaranteeing ATA Carnets in India.
