CBIC has mandated additional qualifiers for coking and non-coking coal import declarations effective December 15, 2024, through Public Notice No. 03/2025. For coking coal (HS codes 27011210, 27011910), importers must specify ash content percentage using designated codes (ACSG15 through ACWG00). For non-coking coal (HS codes 27011100, 27011290, 27011920, 27012010), declarations must include Gross Calorific Value (GCV) using codes ranging from GC0000 to GC2500. This requirement aims to reduce assessment queries, improve clearance efficiency, and enhance data quality for policy development. The notice applies to all coal imports under CTH 2701, with implementation overseen by the Commissioner of Customs, Cochin.
