Cold metal-rolling mills and rolls therefor

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8455 22 00 (cold metal-rolling mills and rolls therefor) 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, bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other machinery and mechanical appliances under Chapter 84 may carry compliance requirements depending on the specific equipment type or end-use sector.

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 all Chapter 84 machinery: certain industrial equipment, electrical components, and safety-critical machinery within the same chapter carry BIS Quality Control Order obligations. Re-classification on customs examination — for example, to a heading covering parts of rolling mills rather than the complete mill — triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention. Confirm the precise product description and HS classification against the customs tariff and current BIS QCO notifications before shipment.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 8455 22 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 goods are parts of rolling mills rather than complete mills?

Parts of rolling mills may fall under a distinct tariff heading within Chapter 84 that carries separate compliance requirements, and re-classification by customs to such a heading triggers retrospective compliance obligations.
