Ampoules

Glass ampoules for conveyance or packing of goods

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 7010 10 00 (glass ampoules) 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 glass containers within Chapter 70 — including pharmaceutical bottles, vials, and laboratory glassware — may fall under sibling tariff lines that carry distinct 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 glass containers classified elsewhere within Chapter 70: bottles, flasks, and phials used for pharmaceutical or food contact applications may attract BIS or sector-specific PGA requirements under a more specific tariff line. Re-classification on customs examination — for example, where ampoules are found to be destined for pharmaceutical use — triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant clearance. Verify the declared end-use and precise product specification before relying on the absence of compliance at this line.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 7010 10 00 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 glass containers are bottles, flasks, or phials rather than ampoules?
Bottles, flasks, and phials are classified under separate tariff lines within Chapter 70 and may attract compliance obligations not applicable to ampoules; re-classification by customs to the appropriate line triggers retrospective compliance.
