NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 9102 29 00 (watches other than those of heading 9101, not with mechanical display only) 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. Other watch types within Chapter 91 — particularly those incorporating radio-frequency or wireless transmission functions — may attract Wireless Planning and Coordination clearance under a sibling tariff line.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all watch-type products: smartwatches and devices with wireless communication capability are commonly re-classified to tariff lines within Chapter 85 or Chapter 91 that carry Type Approval obligations. Customs re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the applicable licence or approval. Confirm the precise technical specification — display type, communication module, operating mechanism — against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
