Compliance steps
  1. 1
    Confirm whether the substance figures in the Schedule to the Insecticides Act, 1968; if so, obtain registration and an import permit from the Secretariat of the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee before filing the bill of entry. Import must be routed through a place notified under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971.

  2. 2
    Where the substance is imported for medical or scientific purposes under the NDPS regime, obtain an import certificate under Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 prior to shipment. Imports outside the medical and scientific category are governed by Appendix-I to the ITC (HS) Schedule.

  3. 3
    Submit mandatory Chapter 29 additional qualifiers in the import declaration in compliance with CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023, operative from 15 October 2023. Where import quantities of specified hazardous substances exceed prescribed thresholds, obtain a public liability insurance policy under S.O. 227(E) dated 24-03-1992.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is treating the CIB&RC and NDPS obligations as mutually exclusive tracks when both can apply to the same consignment simultaneously. A single shipment of para cresidine ortho sulphonic acid may trigger the Insecticides Act, 1968 registration and permit requirement, the NDPS import certificate under Rule 53, and the Chapter 29 CBIC qualifier mandate — omitting any one of these at the bill-of-entry stage results in detention and denial of out-of-charge until the missing clearance is produced.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 2922 29 36 require BIS certification?
No, no BIS Quality Control Order covers oxygen-function amino-compounds under this tariff line. Import is governed primarily by the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee under the Insecticides Act, 1968, with concurrent NDPS Rules, 1985 obligations and DGFT ITC (HS) policy condition 2 of Chapter 29.
Are there restrictions on the ports or places through which this substance may be imported?
Yes. Where the substance falls within the Schedule to the Insecticides Act, 1968, import is restricted to places specifically notified under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971; routing through any other port or place renders the consignment liable to seizure.
When does the public liability insurance requirement apply to this import?
The insurance obligation under S.O. 227(E) dated 24-03-1992 is triggered when imports of specified hazardous substances exceed the quantities prescribed by the Ministry of Environment and Forests; the importer must take out an insurance policy under the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991 before clearance.
