A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is importing parts and accessories under HSN 9013 90 00 without first confirming whether the specific component is captured within the G.S.R. 102(E) schedule of regulated medical devices. Not all optical instrument parts are regulated medical devices — but those that are require a standalone CDSCO registration; a registration held for the parent finished device does not automatically cover separately imported parts or accessories.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 9013 90 00 require BIS certification?

No, no BIS Quality Control Order covers parts and accessories for lasers and optical instruments under this tariff line. Import regulation is governed by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation under G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020, where the goods are classified as medical devices under the Medical Devices Rules, 2017.

Does the CDSCO registration requirement apply to all parts and accessories under this HSN?

No — only those parts and accessories that are specifically listed in G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020 are subject to CDSCO registration; parts falling outside that schedule are not subject to the medical-device registration condition.

What happens if the CDSCO registration has expired at the time of import?

An expired registration means the import lacks a valid regulatory authorisation under the Medical Devices Rules, 2017, and the consignment is liable to detention at the port of entry until a current registration is produced or the goods are re-exported.
