- 1Confirm whether the substance falls within the Schedule to the Insecticides Act, 1968. If scheduled, obtain registration and an import permit from the Secretariat of CIB&RC before shipment, and note that the ports at which insecticides may be imported are restricted under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971.Insecticides Act, 1968 · Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971 · ITC (HS) policy condition 2 of Chapter 29
- 2If the substance is an NDPS-scheduled material, obtain an import certificate under Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 for imports for medical or scientific purposes under Chapter VII-A. Imports outside that category are governed by Appendix-I of the ITC (HS) Schedule.Chapter VII-A and Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 · ITC (HS) policy condition 2 of Chapter 29
- 3Ensure mandatory additional qualifiers are included in the import declaration at the bill of entry as required for Chapter 29 commodities, effective 15 October 2023. Additionally, where specified hazardous substances exceed prescribed quantities, obtain a Public Liability Insurance policy under S.O. 227(E) dated 24-03-1992.CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023, para 4.1 and 4.2 · S.O. 227(E) dated 24-03-1992
The most common error on this tariff line is assuming that CIB&RC and NDPS controls are mutually exclusive — in practice a single substance can attract both regimes simultaneously, and failure to obtain the NDPS import certificate while holding a CIB&RC permit does not constitute lawful import. Importers should also confirm restricted port compliance under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971 before routing the consignment, as arrival at a non-designated port renders the import liable to seizure and prosecution irrespective of permit status.
