Kabuli chana

Kabuli chana (chickpeas, garbanzos), dried and shelled

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 0713 20 10 (Kabuli chana) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other dried leguminous vegetables and processed chickpea products within Chapter 07 and Chapter 11 may carry distinct compliance obligations depending on processing state and intended use.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to dried, shelled Kabuli chana in its unprocessed form; chickpea flour, splits, or roasted preparations are classified elsewhere and may attract separate requirements. Re-classification on customs examination — for instance, if the product is presented in a processed or value-added form — triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention. Verify product specification, processing state, and moisture content against the customs tariff before relying on this absence of compliance.
