During his inspection of the dry port and Birgunj customs office, Minister Adhikari underscored the significance of an agile customs clearance process, particularly for the import of chemical fertilizers.
Chemical fertilizers imported into Nepal must undergo technical examination in a laboratory as such fertilizers cannot be distributed to farmers without a lab test. Once the report is ready, the process is swift.
The chemical fertilizers are transported from India via the Integrated Checkpoint, with trailers ferrying the heavy equipment and necessary facilitation is in place for the tests at the checkpoint informed Dhan Bahadur Baruwal, Chief of the Customs Office.
