Machinery for preparing animal feeding stuffs
HSN 8436 10 00 (Machinery for preparing animal feeding stuffs) 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 machinery under Chapter 84 — particularly electrically powered equipment or machinery with embedded control systems — may attract compliance under separate tariff lines within the same heading.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all equipment classified within heading 8436; machinery incorporating electrical motors, programmable controllers, or pressure vessels may be re-classified to a more specific tariff line that carries product certification obligations. Customs re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant standard. Verify the technical specification — drive type, automation level, installed sub-components — against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance.
