The single most common error on this tariff line is misclassifying the consignment into an adjacent 'Restricted' CTI to circumvent the Prohibited status of 1502 90 20. A Prohibited classification means the import bar is absolute in the absence of a specific policy relaxation; misdeclaration of the tariff line to evade the Prohibited status constitutes a customs offence under the Customs Act, 1962, attracting confiscation, monetary penalty, and potential prosecution.
