Of bore diameter exceeding 100 mm

Ball bearings of bore diameter exceeding 100 mm

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8482 10 13 (ball bearings of bore diameter exceeding 100 mm) 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. Ball bearings of smaller bore diameters, classified under sibling tariff lines within Chapter 84, may carry distinct compliance; accurate bore-diameter specification is the principal classification risk.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend across all ball bearing classifications: smaller bore diameter variants within heading 8482 are separately classified and may attract Quality Control Order obligations. Re-classification on customs examination — triggered by a discrepancy in bore diameter or bearing type — exposes the importer to detention pending retrospective compliance. Confirm bore diameter, bearing geometry, and intended application against the customs tariff schedule before relying on the absence of compliance here.
