Clearance from SEZ to DTA are to be in accordance with Section 30 of Special Economic Zones Act, 2005 which is as under:-

Section 30 Domestic clearance by Units.

Subject to the conditions specified in the rules made by the Central Government in this behalf:-

(a) any goods removed from a Special Economic Zone to the Domestic Tariff Area shall be chargeable to duties of customs including anti-dumping, countervailing and safeguard duties under the Customs Tariff Act, 1975, where applicable, as leviable on such goods when imported; and

(b) the rate of duty and tariff valuation, if any, applicable to goods removed from a Special Economic Zone shall be at the rate and tariff valuation in force as on the date of such removal, and where such date is not ascertainable, on the date of payment of duty.
