Global treaties & export marketsCHECK

EU: classified carcinogen, mutagen or reproductive toxicant
  • Not listed by the Stockholm Convention (persistent pollutants), the Rotterdam Convention (prior consent before export) or the Montreal Protocol (ozone layer).
  • No EU REACH registration found: an EU importer (or your only representative) must register it before importing a tonne or more a year. Medicines and pesticide actives follow their own EU rules.
  • Not on the US TSCA Inventory, which does not cover medicines or pesticides; those are regulated by the FDA and EPA (FIFRA).
  • Listed on the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals (AICIS), so it can be introduced into Australia as an existing industrial chemical.
  • EU: harmonised classification as a reproductive toxicant category 1B (CLP Annex VI, index 612-289-00-6). It may not be sold to the general public in the EU as such or in mixtures above the limit (REACH Annex XVII, entries 28-30), and its use at work must be minimised.

Import dutyOK

About 27.73% of the import value
  • About ₹27,730 duty on every ₹1,00,000 of import value (CIF).
  • The EU customs inventory (ECICS) classifies it under CN 2933 29 90, so its HS subheading is 2933 29.
  • India splits subheading 2933 29 into 7 lines: 2933 29 10 (Other › Tinidazole); 2933 29 20 (Other › Metronidazole, metronidiazole benzoate); 2933 29 30 (Other › Mebendazole); 2933 29 40 (Other › Dimetridazole); 2933 29 50 (Other › Albendazole); 2933 29 60 (Other › Imidacloprid (ISO)); and 1 more.
  • Basic customs duty 7.5% on every one of them; with social welfare surcharge and IGST 18% that makes about 27.73%.
  • Lines that name a chemical are for that chemical; one that no line names goes under "Other" (2933 29 90).
  • Confirm the exact 8-digit line with your customs broker before you import.
