Brooms and brushes of twigs or vegetable materials, with or without handles

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 9603 10 00 (brooms and brushes consisting of twigs or other vegetable materials, bound together, with or without handles) 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 broom and brush types within Chapter 96 — such as toothbrushes, paintbrushes, or mechanical floor sweepers — are classified under sibling tariff lines that may carry distinct compliance requirements.

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

The absence of compliance at this tariff line is specific to brooms and brushes of vegetable origin; importers who mischaracterise the constituent materials — for instance, declaring synthetic-fibre brushes as vegetable-material brooms — risk re-classification by customs to a tariff line that may carry compliance obligations, with detention and retrospective duty recovery as consequences. Verify that the bound material is genuinely of vegetable origin and that the product falls within the scope of this tariff line before relying on the absence of compliance.
