Mica powder, other than pearlescent pigment grades
HSN 2525 20 90 (Other mica powder) 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. Mica in other forms — splittings, built-up mica, or mica waste — may be classified under sibling lines within Chapter 25 that carry their own classification requirements.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line is specific to mica powder: mica splittings, waste mica, and fabricated mica products each sit under different tariff lines within Chapter 25 and Chapter 68, and some fabricated forms attract distinct obligations. Customs re-classification — from powder to a more processed or application-specific mica form — triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending resolution. Importers should confirm particle size, surface treatment, and intended end-use against the customs tariff before relying on this absence of compliance.
