MOOWR Scheme

What is the MOOWR Scheme?

The MOOWR Scheme (Manufacturing and Other Operations in Warehouse Regulations, 2019) is a revolutionary initiative by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes & Customs (CBIC) that allows companies to import raw materials and capital goods without paying import duty upfront.

It is ideal for manufacturers and exporters who want to defer or entirely waive customs duties while operating from a bonded warehouse.


Key Benefits of MOOWR Scheme

Duty Deferment
Customs duty on imported capital goods and raw materials is deferred until removal into the domestic market.

No Export Obligation
Unlike other schemes (e.g., EPCG or Advance Authorization), MOOWR does not require you to export to avail the benefits.

100% Custom Duty Exemption on Exports
If finished goods are exported, no customs duty is ever paid.

No Time Limit on Warehousing
Goods can be stored indefinitely without any interest or penalty.

Simplified Compliance
Single-point approval from the jurisdictional Commissioner of Customs.

GST Input Credit Available
GST paid on local procurement is fully claimable.
