NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 6704 19 90 (wigs, hairpieces, and similar articles — of animal hair or textile materials, other than human hair) 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. Articles of human hair, or those incorporating textile components subject to separate textile regulations, may fall under different tariff lines within Chapter 67 that attract distinct compliance considerations.

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

The principal importer risk at this tariff line is misclassification: wigs or hairpieces made entirely or predominantly of human hair are classified under a distinct subheading within Chapter 67 and may attract separate scrutiny. Re-classification on customs examination triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention pending resolution. Confirm the precise fibre composition — animal hair, synthetic textile material, or human hair — against the customs tariff before filing the bill of entry.
