NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 6914 10 00 (other ceramic articles of porcelain or china) 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 ceramic articles in Chapter 69 that serve specific end-uses — such as ceramic tableware, sanitaryware, or laboratory ware — may fall under sibling tariff lines that do carry compliance obligations.

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 ceramic goods: household and ornamental articles of porcelain classified elsewhere in Chapter 69, and certain ceramic ware intended for laboratory, industrial, or electrical use, each carry their own classification and potential compliance regimes. Re-classification on customs examination triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant determination. Verify that the article's end-use and material specification are accurately reflected in the declared tariff line before shipment.
