Time-registers; time-recorders

Time-registers and time-recorders with clock or synchronous motor

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 9106 10 00 (time-registers and time-recorders) 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 apparatus in Chapter 91 that incorporate radio-frequency modules or are designed as medical monitoring devices may attract separate compliance at the relevant tariff line.

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

The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to time-registers and time-recorders driven by a clock or watch movement or synchronous motor; apparatus that combines timing with data-transmission or wireless functionality may be re-classified to a tariff line in Chapter 85 or Chapter 90, each of which carries its own compliance regime. Customs re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention pending the relevant licence. Verify the product's functional specification — movement type, wireless capability, intended use — against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
