Containing tetra-, penta-, hexa-, hepta- or octabromodiphenyl ethers
Chemical preparations containing polybrominated diphenyl ethers
HSN 3824 88 00 covers chemical preparations containing tetra-, penta-, hexa-, hepta-, or octabromodiphenyl ethers and is subject to ITC (HS) import policy conditions administered by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT). Policy condition nos. 1, 2, and 3 of Chapter 38 apply at the bill-of-entry stage.
- Policy compliance declaration from DGFT
- Chapter 38 qualifiers from CBIC
- 1Confirm applicability of ITC (HS) Chapter 38 policy condition nos. 1, 2, and 3 before filing the bill of entry. Each condition may impose a licence, permit, or end-use restriction; verify the current text of the ITC (HS) Schedule I policy conditions against the specific preparation being imported.ITC (HS) 2022, Chapter 38, policy condition nos. 1, 2 and 3
- 2Upload all mandatory documentation in e-Sanchit at the bill-of-entry stage and ensure the customs documentation reflects compliance with every applicable Chapter 38 policy condition. Failure to satisfy any one of the three conditions renders the consignment liable to detention pending regularisation.ITC (HS) 2022, Chapter 38, policy condition nos. 1, 2 and 3
The most common error on this tariff line is treating the three Chapter 38 policy conditions as a single composite requirement and verifying only one. Each condition is independently operative: a consignment that satisfies conditions 1 and 2 but fails condition 3 remains in violation, exposing the importer to detention, demurrage, and potential confiscation. Confirm the current text of all three conditions with DGFT before the shipment departs, as policy conditions may be amended by notification.
