- The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has designated Haldia Seaport, West Bengal, as an Immigration Post.
- Haldia has become India's 41st seaport immigration post, facilitating the entry and exit of international passengers.
- The Haldia Dock Complex was built in 1968 to reduce the load on Kolkata Port, and international operations began in 1977.
- Earlier, Dahej, Sikka, and Tuna Tekra ports in Gujarat were also designated as immigration posts.
- The move aims to boost maritime trade, international connectivity, and tourism through the eastern coast.
