Calcined or sintered dolomite

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 2518 20 00 (calcined or sintered dolomite) 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. Raw or untreated dolomite, and dolomite cut into blocks or slabs, are classified under sibling lines within Chapter 25 that may carry distinct compliance considerations.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to calcined or sintered dolomite; raw dolomite, roughly trimmed dolomite, and dolomite in block or slab form each occupy separate tariff lines within Chapter 25 with potentially different treatment. Where customs examination determines that the product does not meet the calcined or sintered specification, re-classification to a more specific line may trigger retrospective compliance and detention pending resolution. Confirm the thermal processing state and intended use in the commercial documentation before relying on the absence of compliance here.
