Ring frames

Ring frames for textile spinning

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8445 20 13 (ring frames) 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 — including certain electrical motors or control panels integrated with textile machinery — may attract separate compliance at the component level.

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

Ring frames are industrial capital goods; the absence of product-specific compliance at this tariff line does not insulate ancillary components from their own classification obligations — motors, switchgear, or electronic controllers imported as part of a bundled shipment may be re-classified independently and attract the compliance applicable to those components. Customs re-classification on examination triggers retrospective duty recovery and potential detention. Confirm the bill of entry describes the goods specifically as ring frames to hold the 8445 20 13 classification.
