Golf ball

Golf balls for sport and recreational play

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 9506 69 30 (Golf ball) 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 under Chapter 95 — particularly certain balls and sports goods — may carry compliance obligations at sibling tariff lines depending on the specific product type.

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

Chapter 95 covers a broad range of sports requisites, and classification within it turns on the specific article and its construction — errors in classifying a composite sports product can invite re-examination and retrospective compliance. The absence of a Quality Control Order at this tariff line does not shield an importer if customs re-classifies the goods to a line that carries compliance; detention pending that determination is the operative risk. Confirm that the product specification and commercial description align unambiguously with the golf ball tariff line before shipment.

Frequently asked
Does HSN 9506 69 30 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 the article is a different type of sports ball or equipment rather than a golf ball?
Other sports balls and equipment within Chapter 95 are classified under distinct tariff lines, some of which may attract Quality Control Order compliance, making accurate product description on the bill of entry essential.
