Compliance steps
  1. 1
    Secure a current FSSAI Import Licence (document code 911001) before the bill of entry is filed. Upload the Import Licence, Certificate of Analysis — food and supplement (document code 0010FS), and specimen copy of label (document code 0110FS) in e-Sanchit; the proper officer will verify all three before granting out-of-charge.
    FSSAI Import Licence — document codes 911001, 0010FS, 0110FS · CBIC Instruction 10/2022-Customs dated 28-06-2022
  2. 2
    Route the consignment through one of the designated food-import entry points compliant with General Note 4(D) of Schedule I of the ITC (HS) 2022. Arrival at a non-designated port renders the consignment liable to detention pending re-routing or re-export.
    General Note 4(D) of Schedule I of the ITC (HS) 2022 · CBIC Instruction 05/2023-Cus dated 08-02-2023
  3. 3
    Where label deficiencies exist at the port, rectification is permitted under FSSAI order dated 18-11-2022 and CBIC Instruction 09/2023-Cus dated 07-03-2023, by affixing a single non-detachable sticker on the principal display panel without altering original label information. Nutritional per-serve RDA contributions and expiry/best-before dates may be rectified at the Customs bonded warehouse before visual inspection by the authorised officer.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is treating label rectification as an alternative to pre-shipment label compliance. Rectification under CBIC Instruction 09/2023-Cus is a narrow dispensation covering enumerated deficiencies — per-serve RDA contributions and expiry/best-before dates — applied only before visual inspection at the Customs bonded warehouse. A consignment arriving without the FSSAI Import Licence or Certificate of Analysis uploaded in e-Sanchit cannot be cleared through rectification; absence of either mandatory document results in detention and potential re-export.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 1510 90 90 require BIS certification?
No, other olive-derived oils and their fractions are not covered by any BIS Quality Control Order. Import is governed by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, with an FSSAI Import Licence, Certificate of Analysis, and specimen label required at the bill of entry.
Which document codes must be uploaded in e-Sanchit for this tariff line?
Three documents are mandatory: FSSAI Import Licence (code 911001), Certificate of Analysis — food and supplement (code 0010FS), and specimen copy of label (code 0110FS); all must be uploaded before the proper officer grants out-of-charge.
What label deficiencies can be rectified at the port, and what cannot?
Per CBIC Instruction 09/2023-Cus and the FSSAI order dated 18-11-2022, per-serve RDA percentage contributions and expiry or best-before date information may be rectified at the Customs bonded warehouse by non-detachable sticker; missing PGA clearance documents such as the FSSAI Import Licence or Certificate of Analysis cannot be substituted through the labelling-rectification route.
