For coal
Sorting, screening, separating or washing machines for coal
HSN 8474 10 10 (sorting, screening, separating, or washing machines for coal) 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. Machinery under Chapter 84 used for processing other mineral substances, or machinery that incorporates electrical safety features subject to separate notification, may fall under sibling tariff lines that carry distinct compliance.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend across the heading: crushing, grinding, or mixing machinery for mineral substances under heading 8474, and certain industrial machinery under Chapter 84 subject to BIS Quality Control Orders, each carry their own regimes. Re-classification on customs examination — for instance, where a machine is used for ore processing rather than coal — triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention. Confirm the machine's specific function and end-use against the customs tariff before relying on this tariff line's absence of compliance.
