Compliance steps
  1. 1
    Determine 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 shipment. Import of scheduled insecticides is restricted to places specified under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971.

  2. 2
    If the substance is an NDPS-scheduled item, import for medical or scientific purposes requires an import certificate under Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985; all other NDPS imports are governed by Appendix-I to the ITC (HS) Schedule. Mandatory e-Sanchit documents — certificate of analysis (0010dc), batch release certificate (0030dc), label of consignment (0110dc), registration certificate (101dc1), and import licence for drugs (9111dc) — must be uploaded before out-of-charge.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is filing a single-track import declaration assuming only the NDPS or only the CIB&RC overlay applies, without verifying whether the substance triggers both regimes simultaneously. A pyrazole-based carbonyl fluoride used as a pesticide intermediate may be scheduled under the Insecticides Act, 1968 and carry a concurrent NDPS classification; failure to present both the CIB&RC permit and the NDPS import certificate results in consignment detention and potential seizure under the respective Acts. Additionally, importers exceeding specified quantities of hazardous substances must also secure a public liability insurance policy under S.O. 227(E) dated 24-03-1992.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 2933 19 91 require BIS certification?
No. No BIS Quality Control Order covers this heterocyclic organic compound. Import is governed by the Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee under the Insecticides Act, 1968, with a concurrent NDPS Rules, 1985 overlay and DGFT ITC (HS) policy condition 2 to Chapter 29.
Which e-Sanchit document codes are mandatory at the bill of entry for this HSN?
The mandatory documents are: certificate of analysis — drug (0010dc), batch release certificate (0030dc), label of consignment (0110dc), registration certificate for drugs (101dc1), and import licence for drugs (9111dc), all to be uploaded in e-Sanchit before out-of-charge.
