A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is assuming that a non-electrical speedometer falls outside the CDSCO medical-device regime because it is a mechanical instrument. G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020 defines the listed device categories by function, not by operating principle; importers should confirm whether their specific product falls within the notified schedule before filing, as a missing CDSCO registration at the bill-of-entry stage results in consignment detention and cannot be remedied retrospectively without formal CDSCO engagement.

What registration documentation must be uploaded at the bill of entry for this HSN?

CDSCO registration covering the specific device, together with evidence of compliance with all conditions prescribed in G.S.R. 102(E) dated 11-02-2020, must be available for verification by the proper officer before out-of-charge is granted.
