A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is treating the CDSCO registration condition as inapplicable on the basis that the goods are classified as 'for other uses' rather than medical. The G.S.R. 102(E) registration conditions applied by MOHFW attach at the tariff-line level; an importer who ships without CDSCO registration and the three mandatory e-Sanchit documents faces consignment detention and customs out-of-charge refusal even when the EPR authorisation from CPCB is current.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 9022 29 00 require BIS certification?
No, no BIS Quality Control Order covers this apparatus sub-category. Import is governed by Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation registration conditions under G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020, with an Extended Producer Responsibility overlay administered by the Central Pollution Control Board under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022.
Which documents must be uploaded in e-Sanchit at the bill of entry stage?
Three documents are mandatory: certificate of analysis (document code 0010dc), batch release certificate (document code 0030dc), and label of consignment (document code 0110dc); customs out-of-charge will be withheld if any of these are missing from e-Sanchit.
Is the CPCB EPR authorisation required for all importers of radiotherapy equipment?
No. The EPR authorisation under G.S.R. 801(E) dated 02-11-2022 does not apply to micro-enterprises as defined in the MSME Development Act, 2006; all other importers of radiotherapy equipment and accessories listed in Schedule I of the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022 must obtain it before import.
