NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8104 90 90 (Other magnesium articles, waste, and scrap) 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. Primary magnesium in unwrought form or specific magnesium alloy products may fall under sibling tariff lines within Chapter 81 that attract distinct compliance obligations; classification accuracy is the principal importer risk.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this residual tariff line does not extend to all magnesium products: unwrought magnesium, magnesium powders, and certain fabricated magnesium articles are classified under more specific headings within Chapter 81 and may carry their own compliance or hazardous-goods notification requirements. Re-classification on customs examination — particularly where the declared form or purity grade places the goods under a more specific subheading — triggers retrospective compliance, including possible detention pending the relevant certificate. Verify the product's physical form, alloy composition, and intended end-use against the tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
