Disperse orange 11 dye and preparations based thereon
HSN 3204 11 21 (Disperse orange 11, also known as Duranol Orange G) is subject to Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) mandatory additional-qualifier requirements in import declarations under CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023, effective 15 October 2023. All import declarations for Chapter 32 commodities must carry the stipulated chemical qualifiers at the bill-of-entry stage per Paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 of that Circular.
- Chapter 32 qualifiers declaration from CBIC
- Bill of entry with chemical descriptors from importer
- 1Include all mandatory additional qualifiers in the import declaration as stipulated under Paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2 of CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus. These qualifiers are required for all commodities under Chapters 28, 29, 32, 39 and CTH 3808, with effect from 15 October 2023.CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023, Paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2
- 2Verify at the bill-of-entry stage that the chemical descriptors and qualifier fields are populated accurately and completely. Incomplete or absent qualifiers render the declaration non-compliant and may trigger detention or customs query at the port of import.CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus dated 30-09-2023
The single most common error on this tariff line is filing the bill of entry without the Chapter 32 mandatory qualifiers, treating the declaration as a routine dyes import. CBIC Circular 23/2023-Cus applies across all Chapter 32 commodity entries from 15 October 2023 onwards; a declaration that omits the Paragraph 4.1 and 4.2 qualifier fields is liable to detention pending correction, with demurrage and ground rent accruing until the amended declaration is accepted.
