Compliance steps
  1. 1
    Confirm the supplying country is a State Party to the Chemical Weapons Convention before placing the order. Within 30 days of import, notify consignment details to the National Authority CWC (Cabinet Secretariat, Ministry of External Affairs), the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, and DGFT, and submit a copy of the bill of entry to DGFT.

  2. 2
    Obtain CDSCO registration under G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020 if the substance is imported as a medical device or for a purpose listed therein. Where imported for insecticidal use, obtain CIB&RC registration or, for non-insecticidal end-use, an import permit from the Registration Committee; import is restricted to sources and ports specified on the certificate or permit.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is treating the ITC (HS) 'free' policy status under DGFT Notification 44/2025-26 as implying an unrestricted import — the CWC Schedule 1B controls operate as a parallel mandatory regime that survives the 'free' classification. Consignments arriving from non-State-Party origins are liable to confiscation and criminal liability under the Chemical Weapons Convention Act, 2000 regardless of whether all other documents are in order, and the 30-day post-import notification obligation to three separate authorities is a distinct compliance deadline that cannot be satisfied retrospectively without attracting penalty.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 2921 19 11 require BIS certification?
No, no BIS Quality Control Order covers amine-function compounds in this tariff line. Import is governed by CDSCO and MOHFW under G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020, CIB&RC under the Insecticides Act, 1968, and CWC Schedule 1B controls administered through the ITC (HS) import policy.
What are the post-import notification obligations under the CWC Schedule 1B regime?
Within 30 days of import the importer must notify the National Authority CWC (Cabinet Secretariat, Ministry of External Affairs), the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, and DGFT, and must submit a copy of the bill of entry to DGFT — per Appendix II to Schedule 1 of the ITC (HS) Import Policy.
Does the CIB&RC registration requirement apply even when the substance is not imported for use as an insecticide?
Where the importer's declared end-use is non-insecticidal, a separate import permit from the CIB&RC Registration Committee is still required under Section 9 of the Insecticides Act, 1968, and the permit will specify the permitted source and port of import.
