Squash or racketball badminton rackets, whether or not strung
Squash, racketball, and badminton rackets, strung or unstrung
HSN 9506 59 10 (squash, racketball, and badminton rackets, whether or not strung) 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 articles and equipment within Chapter 95 — such as certain toys or specific sports goods — may carry compliance under a Quality Control Order; classification accuracy between racket types and related accessories determines whether any obligation attaches.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all sports goods within Chapter 95; racket strings, grips, and related accessories classified separately may attract distinct treatment. A customs officer who re-classifies the goods to a different Chapter 95 tariff line — for example, to a heading covering parts and accessories — triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention. Verify that the product description on commercial documentation matches the tariff line precisely, including whether the rackets are strung or unstrung.
