Documentation plays a key role in effecting imports as well as exports of the cargo. Especially in case of imports, the availability of right documents, the correctness of the information available in the documents as well as the timeliness in submitting the documents and filing the necessary applications for the Customs Clearance determines the efficiency of the Customs Clearance process. Any delay in filing or non-availability of documents can delay the process and thereby importer stands not only to incur demurrage on the imported cargo but also stand to lose business opportunities.

Bill of Entry is the main key document for imports on which the Customs approves clearance of the cargo and the document is crucial for availing duty credits if any by the Importer post clearance and Shipping Bill is the main key documents for exports on which approves for exportation of the cargo and the document is crucial for any exporter.
