About Us

In the State of Karnataka, we have one Customs Zone and two Central Excise Zones under the charge of Chief Commisioners who oversee performance of two Customs Commissionerates and six Central Excise Commissionerates,each headed by a Commissioner.

The present Bangalore Central Excise Commissionerate was originally known as the Mysore Central Excise & Customs Collectorate which later became the Karnataka Central Excise & Customs Collectorate after reorganization of the States in 1956. The Karnataka Central Excise & Customs Commissionerate, which came into effect from 18th July 1957, had the jurisdiction over the entire state of Karnataka. It comprised of four divisions viz., Bangalore, Mysore, Belgaum, and Castle Rock, which over a period of time increased to fifty divisions. In 1983, the Karnataka Customs and Central Excise Collectorate was trifurcated to form Bangalore Central Excise Collectorate, Belgaum Central Excise Collectorate and Karnataka Customs Collectorate. In July 1997, these formations were again reorganized to form Bangalore I, II, III, and Belgaum Central Excise Commissionerates. In January 2000, the Karnataka Central Excise and Customs Commissionerates were further reorganized to form five Central Excise Commissionerates, viz., Bangalore I, II, III, Mangalore and Belgaum Central Excise Commissionerates vide Notification No.59/99 NT dated 10.12.99. The jurisdiction of the entire Karnataka Central Excise and Customs Commissionerates have also been reorganized w.e.f. 01.04.2000 vide Notification No.22/2000 dated 23.02.2000.
