Roasted

Molybdenum ores and concentrates, roasted

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 2613 10 00 (roasted molybdenum ores and concentrates) 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, bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Unroasted (non-calcined) molybdenum ores and concentrates fall under a sibling tariff line within Chapter 26 and may attract differing treatment; classification turns on whether the material has been thermally processed.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

The principal importer risk at this tariff line is misclassification: customs examiners may re-assess whether the concentrate has been sufficiently roasted to meet the tariff definition, or whether downstream processing brings the material within a value-added chemical category under Chapter 28. Re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention pending resolution. Verify the processing state and molybdenum oxide content against laboratory certificates before relying on the absence of compliance here.

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