Powder

Feldspar in powder form

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 2529 10 20 (feldspar 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. Other mineral-based materials within Chapter 25 — including fluorspar and nepheline syenite classified under adjacent headings — may carry distinct compliance obligations depending on their form and intended use.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

The principal risk for feldspar powder imports lies in misclassification: lump or granular feldspar falls under a separate tariff line within Chapter 25, and ceramics-grade versus glass-grade specifications sometimes prompt customs officers to query the correct sub-heading. A re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance and detention pending resolution. Verify the physical form and purity specification of the consignment against the customs tariff before shipment.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 2529 10 20 require any pre-import registration?

A valid Importer-Exporter Code is required for any commercial import; no product-specific registration applies to this tariff line.

What changes if the feldspar is imported in lump or granular form rather than as powder?

Lump or granular feldspar is classified under a different sub-heading within Chapter 25 and the applicable tariff treatment, including any compliance obligations, must be verified independently for that form.
