NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 7016 90 00 (other pressed or moulded glass articles for building or construction purposes, including leaded lights, foam glass panels, and glass smallwares for mosaics) 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. Flat glass, safety glass, and glass mirrors classified elsewhere in Chapter 70 may carry compliance obligations, so precise product classification is the principal importer risk.

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 glass products: flat glass, toughened or laminated safety glass, and glass fibres classified within Chapter 70 each carry their own compliance regimes, and a re-classification on customs examination triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant licence or certificate. Verify the precise product description — forming method, intended use, surface treatment — against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance at this line.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 7016 90 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 product is a flat or safety glass panel used in construction?
Flat glass, toughened glass, and laminated safety glass are classified under separate headings within Chapter 70 and may attract mandatory compliance obligations; re-classification by customs to the applicable heading triggers retrospective compliance.
