Asphalt or bitumen articles in rolls, other types

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 6807 10 90 (articles of asphalt or similar material in rolls — other than those separately classified) 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 asphalt or bitumen intended for specific construction applications, or those meeting named IS standards, may fall under a sibling tariff line within Chapter 68 that does carry compliance.

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

The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all asphalt and bitumen articles: other forms such as sheets, tiles, or boards classified elsewhere in Chapter 68, or petroleum bitumen imported as a raw material under Chapter 27, each sit in distinct tariff lines that may carry separate compliance regimes. Re-classification on customs examination — based on product form, composition, or declared end-use — triggers retrospective compliance and detention pending the relevant licence. Confirm the precise product form and intended use against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
