Once the cargo crossed border of the country, carrier intimates customs department by filing necessary documents regarding the departure of the goods with details of vessel/aircraft, date of sailing/flying etc. EGM is one of the proofs taken by customs department as proof of export while certifying the export promotion copy of shipping bill.
