NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 6902 20 90 (other refractory bricks, blocks, tiles and similar goods containing more than 50% alumina or silica by weight) 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, bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other refractory ceramic goods within Chapter 69 — particularly those classified by a more specific alumina or magnesia threshold — may fall under sibling tariff lines that carry compliance obligations.

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

The absence of compliance at this tariff line turns on precise composition: refractory goods containing magnesia, chrome, or other specified oxides are classified under separate subheadings within heading 6902 and may attract distinct requirements. Re-classification by customs on examination — based on actual alumina, silica, or other oxide content — triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention. Importers should obtain and retain the manufacturer's certified chemical composition analysis before filing the bill of entry.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 6902 20 90 require any pre-import registration?
A valid Importer-Exporter Code is required for any commercial import; no product-specific registration applies to this tariff line.
What changes if the refractory goods contain magnesia or other specified oxides instead of predominantly alumina or silica?
Goods with a different principal oxide composition are classified under a separate subheading within heading 6902 and may attract distinct compliance obligations, making accurate chemical composition documentation essential before import.
