Of glass-ceramics

Glassware of glass-ceramics for table, kitchen, or decorative use

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 7013 10 00 (glassware of glass-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 glassware headings within Chapter 70 — particularly glass containers under heading 7010 and glass beads under heading 7018 — may carry distinct compliance obligations depending on product form and intended use.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

Glass-ceramic articles that are marketed as cookware or bakeware may attract scrutiny under a different tariff classification if customs determines the primary function is cookware rather than tableware or decorative ware. Re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending duty resolution. Confirm the product's end-use description and material specification against the tariff before relying on the absence of compliance at this line.
