Glasses for corrective spectacles, not optically worked (other)

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 7015 10 90 (glasses for corrective spectacles, not optically worked — other) 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. Corrective ophthalmic lenses that are optically worked, or finished spectacles as complete medical devices, may fall under separate Chapter 70 or Chapter 90 tariff lines that carry distinct compliance.

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 optically worked lenses or finished spectacle frames classified under Chapter 90, which may attract medical device or BIS compliance. Re-classification on customs examination — for example, if the goods are assessed as finished ophthalmic products rather than unworked glass blanks — triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant authorisation. Verify the product specification, particularly the degree of optical working, against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance.
