Acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber latex, in primary forms

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 4002 51 00 (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber latex) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other synthetic rubber products under Chapter 40 — particularly those used in finished articles such as gloves, tyres, or industrial components — may attract compliance under sibling tariff lines or under separate Quality Control Orders that apply to the finished rubber article rather than the raw material.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber latex in primary form; compounded rubber, vulcanised rubber articles, and rubber-based finished goods within Chapter 40 carry their own regulatory regimes. Customs re-classification — for example, if the product is assessed as a rubber compound rather than a latex — triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention pending resolution. Confirm that the product specification, including solids content, intended use, and physical form, maps precisely to this tariff line before import.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 4002 51 00 require any pre-import registration?
A valid Importer-Exporter Code is required for any commercial import; no product-specific registration applies to this tariff line.
What changes if the acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber is in a compounded or vulcanised form rather than as latex?
Compounded or vulcanised rubber products are classified under separate tariff lines within Chapter 40 and may attract Quality Control Order compliance applicable to the specific processed or finished form.
