A word of counsel

The most common error on this residual garment line is applying the azo-dye PSIC exemption to the brand-genuineness and composition certificate requirements — they are separate and independent obligations. Even where the exporting country is on the azo-dye exemption list, the woollen and blended textile PSIC confirming fibre composition and the brand-owner certificate remain mandatory; arriving without the brand certificate will result in consignment detention pending documentary compliance.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 6211 39 90 require BIS certification?

No, this residual garment tariff line is not covered by any BIS Quality Control Order. Import is governed by the ITC (HS) policy administered by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade under the Textile (Development & Regulation) Order, 2001 and associated General Notes, with PSIC and brand-certificate requirements at the bill of entry.

Which documents must accompany a woollen blended garment consignment at the port of import?

Three documents are required: a Pre-Shipment Inspection Certificate from an accredited laboratory certifying fibre composition, a Certificate of Origin, and a brand-owner certificate of genuineness — all mandated under General Note 11 of the ITC (HS) policy read with Notification No. CER (18)/99-CLB dated 7 March 1988.

Do port restrictions apply to garments imported from Bangladesh under this tariff line?

Yes, where Para 19 of the General Notes introduced by DGFT Notification 7/2025-26 dated 17 May 2025 applies, Bangladesh-origin consignments face specified port restrictions; importers must confirm whether their goods fall within the exempted categories listed in Paragraphs 2 and 3 of that Notification before routing.
