Customs Inland Container Depot at Kalinganagar

The customs department has plans to open an inland container depot at the Kalinganagar steel hub in Jajpur district of Odisha. This move has been planned in order to facilitate hassle-free clearance for imports and exports. Also, it will be convenient to obtain customs clearance at the new facility for manufacturers and suppliers of different goods. Kalinganagar was selected as an apt location because of good rail connectivity. Manufacturers of consumer goods will have to pay considerably less money than what they are currently paying.
