Magnesium and articles thereof, other unwrought forms

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8104 19 00 (magnesium and articles thereof — other unwrought forms) 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 headings within Chapter 81 covering specific magnesium articles, alloys, or waste and scrap may carry distinct classification treatment, and the intended use or processing state of the material is the determinative factor.

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 the full heading: magnesium powders, granules, and turnings can attract hazardous-goods treatment under DGFT notifications, and magnesium waste and scrap is separately classified within heading 8104 with its own customs treatment. Re-classification on customs examination — particularly where the product is presented as an alloy or a fabricated article — triggers retrospective compliance and detention pending resolution. Verify the precise product specification, alloy composition, and physical form against the customs tariff before shipment.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 8104 19 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 magnesium is in powder, granule, or waste and scrap form?
Those forms are classified under separate tariff lines within heading 8104 and may attract distinct customs treatment or DGFT restrictions; re-classification by customs to the more specific line triggers retrospective compliance.
