For silk regenerated and synthetic fibre machinery
Bamboo articles for silk and synthetic fibre machinery
HSN 4421 91 13 (bamboo articles for silk, regenerated and synthetic fibre machinery) is subject to phytosanitary controls administered by Customs under CBIC verification requirements, with a Phytosanitary Certificate mandatory at the bill-of-entry stage. No separate sectoral PGA licence is listed for this tariff line; the operative clearance requirement is the Phytosanitary Certificate uploaded in e-Sanchit before out-of-charge.
- Phytosanitary Certificate from exporting country authority
- e-Sanchit upload to CBIC
- 1Obtain a Phytosanitary Certificate (document code 851000) issued by the competent plant-protection authority of the exporting country. The certificate must accompany the consignment and be uploaded in e-Sanchit before the bill of entry is assessed.CCR requirement — document code 851000; e-Sanchit upload condition per CBIC PGA-facilitated bill verification
- 2At the bill of entry, confirm the Phytosanitary Certificate (document code 851000) is visible in e-Sanchit. The proper officer is required to verify the upload before granting out-of-charge; consignments without the uploaded certificate will be held pending compliance.CBIC PGA-facilitated bill verification instruction — document code 851000
The single most common failure on this tariff line is presenting the Phytosanitary Certificate in paper form at the port without completing the e-Sanchit upload. The proper officer's verification is triggered digitally — a paper original does not substitute for the document-code 851000 entry in e-Sanchit, and the consignment remains detained until the upload is completed, accumulating demurrage and ground rent.
