- 1Verify whether the specific substance falls within the Schedule to the Insecticides Act, 1968.

- 2If the substance qualifies as a narcotic drug or psychotropic substance, secure an import certificate under Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 for medical or scientific purposes, or establish compliance with Appendix-I of the ITC (HS) Schedule under ITC (HS) policy condition No. 2 to Chapter 29 for other imports.Chapter VII-A of the NDPS Rules, 1985 · Rule 53 of the NDPS Rules, 1985 · ITC (HS) policy condition No. 2 to Chapter 29
- 3Upload mandatory documents in e-Sanchit before the bill of entry is filed, including document codes 0010dc (certificate of analysis), 0030dc (batch release certificate), 0110dc (label of consignment), 101dc1 (registration certificate for drugs), and 9111dc (import licence for drugs), and include the mandatory Chapter 29 additional qualifiers in the import declaration per CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023.CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023 · Para 4.1 and 4.2 (effective 15-10-2023)
The most common error on this tariff line is assuming that because the substance does not carry an explicit insecticide label, CIB&RC registration is not required. Items falling under this CTI may figure in the Schedule to the Insecticides Act, 1968 regardless of commercial labelling; failure to check the Schedule before import results in consignment detention at the port of entry and potential confiscation. The port restriction under Rule 45 of the Insecticides Rules, 1971 is an independent obligation — routing a Schedule-listed substance through an unnotified port is itself a separate contravention.
