Actionable claim involved in or by way of gambling

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 9807 30 00 (Actionable claim involved in or by way of gambling) 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. Chapter 98 encompasses a range of specified actionable claims and project imports, some of which attract distinct treatment; accurate tariff-line classification is the principal importer risk.

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

Chapter 98 covers a heterogeneous set of specified actionable claims — including lottery winnings and betting rights — each classified at a separate tariff line with potentially different duty and GST treatment. A customs officer's re-classification of the underlying instrument to a different line within Chapter 98 can trigger retrospective duty recovery and detention. Confirm the precise legal character of the actionable claim against the customs tariff and applicable GST schedules before relying on the absence of compliance at this line.

Lottery winnings and other specified actionable claims are classified at distinct tariff lines within Chapter 98 and may attract different duty and GST treatment, making precise characterisation of the instrument essential before import.
