Roasted iron pyrites
Roasted iron pyrites, calcined iron sulphide ore
HSN 2601 20 00 (Roasted iron pyrites) 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. Iron ore concentrates and unroasted iron pyrites classified elsewhere under heading 2601 may attract distinct compliance; precise product-state description on the bill of entry is essential.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to roasted (calcined) iron pyrites; unroasted iron pyrites and iron ore concentrates under Chapter 26, and sulphur-bearing materials repurposed as inputs under Chapter 25 or Chapter 31, each sit in separate classifications that carry their own regulatory treatment. Customs re-classification on examination — where an officer determines the product is a concentrate or unroasted feedstock — triggers retrospective compliance and detention pending resolution. Importers should document roasting process confirmation and sulphur content analysis to defend the 2601 20 00 classification.
