Anisic aldehyde (Anisaldehyde)
Anisic aldehyde (anisaldehyde), aromatic aldehyde organic chemical
HSN 2912 49 10 (Anisic aldehyde / Anisaldehyde) is subject to registration and import permit requirements of the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee (CIB&RC) under the Insecticides Act, 1968, where the substance figures in the schedule to that Act. Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) controls under Chapter VII-A of the NDPS Rules, 1985 apply concurrently, and the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) ITC (HS) policy condition 2 of Chapter 29 governs the broader import policy overlay. Mandatory Chapter 29 qualifiers under CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus apply at the bill of entry stage.

- 1Where anisaldehyde is listed in the schedule to the Insecticides Act, 1968, obtain registration and an import permit from the Secretariat of the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee before filing the bill of entry. Note that import of insecticides is restricted to specified places under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971; consignments routed through non-notified ports are liable to detention.Insecticides Act, 1968 · Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971 · ITC (HS) policy condition 2 of Chapter 29
- 2If the consignment falls under the NDPS regime, obtain an import certificate under Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 for medical and scientific purposes as per Chapter VII-A. Imports outside the medical/scientific category are governed by Appendix-I to the ITC (HS) Schedule and must comply with the applicable policy conditions.Chapter VII-A and Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 · ITC (HS) policy condition 2 of Chapter 29
- 3Ensure mandatory additional qualifiers for Chapter 29 commodities are declared in the import bill of entry as stipulated in paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 of CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023, with effect from 15-10-2023. Upload the certificate of analysis (document code 0010dc), batch release certificate (0030dc), label of consignment (0110dc), registration certificate for drugs (101dc1), and import licence for drugs (9111dc) in e-Sanchit before customs out-of-charge.CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023 · e-Sanchit document codes 0010dc, 0030dc, 0110dc, 101dc1, 9111dc
The dual-regime trap on this tariff line is the most frequent source of detention: importers who secure only the CIB&RC registration and overlook the independent NDPS import certificate under Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 find their consignment detained at the port pending NDPS clearance, which cannot be obtained retrospectively at the bill of entry stage. Additionally, the insecticide-port restriction under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971 is absolute — routing a scheduled-substance consignment through a non-notified port voids the CIB&RC permit and exposes the importer to seizure and prosecution under the Insecticides Act, 1968.
