Compliance steps

1
Obtain either a Certificate of Registration or an Import Permit from the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee before shipment. Where the substance is imported for a non-insecticidal purpose, an import permit from the Registration Committee under the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation is mandatory; no import may proceed from a source not specified on the certificate or permit.

2
Route the consignment through a port notified under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971. Ensure mandatory e-Sanchit uploads before the bill of entry is filed: certificate of analysis (document code 0010dc), batch release certificate (0030dc), label of consignment (0110dc), registration certificate (101dc1), and import licence (9111dc).

Comply with CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023 by including mandatory additional qualifiers in the import declaration for Chapter 28 commodities, as stipulated in Paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2, with effect from 15 October 2023. Where the imported quantity of specified hazardous substances exceeds the prescribed threshold, obtain a public liability insurance policy under the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991.

A word of counsel

The dual-track structure of the CIB&RC regime is the most frequent trap on this tariff line: a full Certificate of Registration is required when the substance is to be used as an insecticide, but a separate Import Permit — not the registration certificate — is required for non-insecticidal end-use. Presenting the wrong credential at customs results in detention and ground rent while the correct document is procured, because the port of import restriction under Rule 45 compounds any re-routing delay.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 2825 10 90 require BIS certification?

No, this tariff line falls outside the BIS Quality Control Order regime; no BIS QCO covers hydrazine or hydroxylamine inorganic salts. Import is governed by the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee under Section 9 of the Insecticides Act, 1968, with CBIC Chapter 28 qualifier obligations at the bill of entry.

Which document codes must be uploaded in e-Sanchit for this tariff line?

The mandatory e-Sanchit uploads are certificate of analysis (0010dc), batch release certificate (0030dc), label of consignment (0110dc), registration certificate (101dc1), and import licence (9111dc); all must be present before customs out-of-charge.

Does the public liability insurance requirement apply to every import under this CTI?

No. The insurance obligation under the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991 is triggered only when the import of a specified hazardous substance exceeds the quantities prescribed in S.O. 227(E) dated 24-03-1992; importers below those thresholds are not required to take out a policy.
