Containing by weight antimony as the principal other element
Unwrought lead with antimony as principal alloying element
HSN 7801 91 00 (unwrought lead containing antimony as the principal other element by weight) 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 unwrought lead forms or refined lead under Chapter 78 may be classified differently and could carry distinct compliance obligations.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to the broader Chapter 78 family: refined unwrought lead and lead alloys with a different principal alloying element are separately classified and may attract their own requirements. Re-classification on customs examination — for instance, if the antimony content does not in fact predominate — triggers retrospective compliance, including potential detention pending re-assessment. Verify alloy composition certificates against the customs tariff entry before relying on the absence of compliance.
