Furnishing ceramics
Furnishing ceramics for interior and architectural use
HSN 6907 40 00 (Furnishing ceramics) 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. Other ceramic products within Chapter 69 — particularly ceramic flags, paving, hearth or wall tiles, and mosaic cubes classified under heading 6907 — may attract distinct compliance depending on the specific tariff line.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all ceramic products within Chapter 69; ceramic flags, paving tiles, and wall tiles classified under sibling tariff lines within heading 6907 may carry BIS obligations under separately notified Quality Control Orders. Re-classification on customs examination — for example, where furnishing ceramics are assessed as floor or wall tiles — triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant licence. Verify the product's precise form, dimensions, and intended application against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
