Rules in IndiaOK
- Not on the Indian banned-pesticide, drug-precursor, narcotic, psychotropic or new-drug lists we check.
- Normal factory, storage and GST rules still apply.
Exporting from IndiaOK
- Not on the SCOMET export-control list or the precursor export list.
- The buyer’s country may still have its own import rules.
Global treaties & export marketsCHECK
- 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: EPA needs a premanufacture notice before it can be imported, unless it is a pesticide, drug or food additive, which TSCA does not cover.
- Listed on the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals (AICIS), so it can be introduced into Australia as an existing industrial chemical.
- EU: harmonised classification (CLP Annex VI, index 617-012-00-2): Org. Perox. D, Skin Corr. 1B, Acute Tox. 4. Suppliers in the EU must label it this way.
Import dutyOK
- About ₹27,730 duty on every ₹1,00,000 of import value (CIF).
- Made up of basic customs duty 7.5%, social welfare surcharge 0.75% and IGST 18%. IGST can usually be claimed back as input tax credit.
- Tariff item 2909 60 00: Alcohol peroxides, ether peroxides, acetal and hemiacetal peroxides, ketone peroxides and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives.
- No Indian tariff line names this chemical. The EU customs inventory (ECICS) classifies it under CN 2909 60 90, which is HS subheading 2909 60; India has one line under that subheading, so this is its line.

- Heating may cause a fire
- Causes severe skin burns and eye damage
- Harmful if inhaled
- Always read the supplier’s safety data sheet (SDS) before handling.
