Diamond-studded jewellery of other precious metal

DGFT CLEARANCE · CBIC CLEARANCE

HSN 7113 19 13 (diamond-studded jewellery of other precious metal) is subject to ITC (HS) Restricted-import policy administered by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), with imports from South Korea of specified items restricted under policy condition 4 of Chapter 71. An India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) route permits import without a Restricted Import Authorisation where applicable, and the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) applies customs notification overlays governing TRQ allocation and duty treatment.

Compliance steps
  1. 1
    Obtain a Restricted Import Authorisation from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade before filing the bill of entry, unless the consignment qualifies under a valid India-UAE CEPA TRQ allocation. Imports from South Korea of specified items under Chapter 71 remain restricted under policy condition 4 and require the authorisation regardless of the CEPA route.

  2. 2
    Where importing under the India-UAE CEPA TRQ, verify the TRQ allocation under Appendix 2A of the Foreign Trade Policy 2015-20 and Annexure IV thereof, and ensure the consignment is accompanied by the requisite CEPA origin documentation. The TRQ regime was notified jointly by DGFT and CBIC and any import in excess of the allocated quota reverts to the Restricted-import framework.

  3. 3
    If the consignment contains gold in any form above 22 carats as part of the jewellery article, import is permissible only through nominated agencies notified by the Reserve Bank of India (for banks) or by DGFT (for others). Non-nominated importers attempting to clear gold-content jewellery above 22 carats face confiscation and monetary penalty.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is assuming that a valid India-UAE CEPA TRQ allocation exempts the consignment from all ITC (HS) Restricted-import obligations across all origins. The TRQ exemption from Restricted Import Authorisation applies only to UAE-origin goods imported within the allocated quota; South Korea-origin consignments of specified items remain Restricted under policy condition 4 of Chapter 71 without exception, and an incorrectly routed consignment is liable to detention and DGFT-policy enforcement at the port of import.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 7113 19 13 require BIS certification?
No, articles of jewellery studded with diamonds of heading 7102 are not covered by any BIS Quality Control Order. Import is governed by the ITC (HS) Restricted-import policy administered by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade under Chapter 71 policy condition 4, with a CEPA TRQ route available for UAE-origin goods.
Can imports from South Korea be made freely under the India-UAE CEPA TRQ?
No. The India-UAE CEPA TRQ route permitting import without a Restricted Import Authorisation applies only to UAE-origin goods; imports from South Korea of specified items under Chapter 71 remain Restricted under policy condition 4 and require a separate DGFT authorisation.
Who is permitted to import jewellery containing gold above 22 carats under this HSN?
