Ski-fastenings (ski-bindings)

Ski-fastenings and ski-bindings for snow sports

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 9506 12 00 (ski-fastenings and ski-bindings) 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 (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other articles and equipment classified under Chapter 95 — particularly certain toys and sports goods — may attract compliance obligations at their own tariff lines.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.

A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line applies specifically to ski-fastenings and ski-bindings; related snow-sports equipment classified elsewhere within heading 9506 may carry distinct treatment on re-examination. Customs re-classification — for instance, if bindings are imported as part of a complete ski assembly — can trigger retrospective compliance and detention pending resolution. Confirm that the product specification and declared end-use align precisely with this tariff line before finalising the import entry.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 9506 12 00 require any pre-import registration?

A valid Importer-Exporter Code is required for any commercial import; no product-specific registration applies to this tariff line.

What changes if ski-bindings are imported as part of a complete ski or snow-sports equipment set?

A complete assembly may be classified under a different tariff line within Chapter 95, which could attract its own compliance or duty treatment, triggering retrospective obligations if re-classified by customs on examination.
