Pneumatic or hydraulic hand tools, other than rotary type

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8467 19 00 (pneumatic or hydraulic hand tools, other than rotary type) 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 hand tools within Chapter 84 — particularly those with self-contained electric motors — may fall under sibling tariff lines that do carry BIS compliance.

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 electrically powered hand tools classified elsewhere within heading 8467, several of which are subject to BIS Quality Control Orders enforced at the port of entry. Re-classification on customs examination — for instance, where a tool is found to incorporate an electric motor — triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant licence. Verify the precise power source and tool type against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 8467 19 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 hand tool has a self-contained electric motor?

Electrically powered hand tools are classified under separate tariff lines within heading 8467 and may attract BIS Quality Control Order compliance, making accurate classification by power source essential before import.
