Answer 1

ARE-1s for exports under bond.
Prerequisites
You have an excise bond from the government and have entered it in the system.
You have received a sales order from a customer located abroad. In the R/3 System, you have already created the delivery and the outgoing excise invoice. In the excise invoice, you have set the excise invoice type to Export Under Bond.
Process Flow
The excise clerk creates an ARE-1.
He then calls the local excise department and asks them to send an excise officer to check the goods.
The excise officer comes and checks that the goods match what is on the ARE-1. He fills out Part A of the form (Certification by the Central Excise Office).
The clerk then posts the ARE-1 and prints out the requisite number of copies.
The excise officer signs the ARE-1s and takes one copy with him.
The shipping department sends the goods to be exported, together with the excise invoice and the ARE-1.
Before the goods can leave the country, they have to go through the customs office, for example, at the airport or at the port.
When the goods arrive at customs, the customs officer checks whether the excise invoice and the ARE-1 match the goods.
If he finds that there are fewer goods than stated on the ARE-1, he enters the shortfall in the ARE-1.
He then fills out Part B of the ARE-1 (Certification by the Customs Officer) and sends it back to the excise clerk. One of the copies is in a sealed envelope.
When the excise clerk receives the ARE-1, he updates the ARE-1 in the R/3 System.
He fills out the various certification dates in the ARE-1 (for example, the date when the ARE-1 arrived back at your company).
If the customs officer noted a shortfall in the quantity of goods, the excise clerk enters the shortfall as well. Since the whereabouts of the missing goods cannot be accounted for, they no longer qualify for exemption from excise duty. Your company is therefore liable for the excise duty on the shortfall, plus interest, backdated to the date when you removed the goods from your premises. The clerk specifies which excise registers to pay the excise duty from.
The clerk sends the ARE-1 in the sealed envelope to the excise department.
The excise officer cross-checks this copy of the ARE-1 with his own copy. When he is satisfied that everything is correct, he sends the excise clerk a final confirmation.
When the excise clerk receives the confirmation, he closes the ARE-1.
The process is now complete.
