Obtain a Pre-Shipment Inspection Certificate from an accredited laboratory of the exporting country, or a valid test report from a Textile Committee or CSRTI laboratory, certifying absence of prohibited hazardous azo dyes. Testing for azo dyes is exempted only for imports originating from the EU, Serbia, Poland, Denmark, Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, and the United Kingdom.

If importing from Bangladesh, confirm that the consignment qualifies under the exemptions in paras 2 and 3 of DGFT Notification 7/2025-26, or route the consignment through a port permitted under para 1 of General Note para 19. Non-qualifying imports from Bangladesh that arrive at a restricted port are liable to detention and re-export.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is assuming that the azo-dye PSIC exemption for preferred-origin countries extends to all testing requirements — it does not. The exemption covers only the test for presence of azo dyes; the PSIC itself remains mandatory for all origins to certify absence of other prohibited hazardous dyes. Submitting a test report limited to azo dyes from a non-exempt country, or omitting the PSIC entirely for an exempt-origin shipment, both result in consignment detention at the port of entry pending DGFT-compliant documentation.
