Of lead crystal

Lead crystal glassware for table, kitchen, or decoration

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 7013 22 00 (lead crystal glassware for table, kitchen, toilet, office, or indoor decoration) 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 glassware tariff lines within Chapter 70 — particularly those covering safety glass, glass containers, or glassware of a different composition — may 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 neighbouring glassware lines: safety glass and toughened or laminated glass within Chapter 70 attract specific Quality Control Orders, and classification of a product as a glass container rather than decorative glassware can shift it to a different heading with its own requirements. Customs re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance, including potential detention. Confirm that the product's composition — specifically the lead oxide content that defines lead crystal — and its intended use are accurately declared against the customs tariff.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 7013 22 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 glassware is not of lead crystal but of another glass type?
Non-lead-crystal glassware of the same functional kind falls under a different subheading within heading 7013, and certain glassware compositions or forms elsewhere in Chapter 70 may attract a Quality Control Order; customs re-classification to such a line triggers retrospective compliance.
