Interchangeable tapping or threading tools, other than dies

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8207 40 90 (Other tools for tapping or threading) 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 interchangeable tools under Chapter 82 — particularly drilling, boring, or rock-drilling tools — may fall under sibling tariff lines that carry distinct compliance considerations.

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

The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to other tapping or threading tools; dies for drawing or extruding metal and rock-drilling or earth-boring tools are separately classified within Chapter 82 and warrant independent verification. Customs re-classification — triggered by a mismatch between the declared tariff line and the examined product's form or function — carries the risk of detention pending retrospective compliance and duty recovery. Confirm that the product's precise description, intended use, and construction align with the 8207 40 subheading before filing the bill of entry.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 8207 40 90 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 tool is a die for drawing or extruding metal rather than a tapping or threading tool?
Dies for drawing or extruding metal are classified under a separate subheading within Chapter 82 and may attract different compliance requirements, making accurate classification essential before import.
