All imported livestock products need to be
checked strictly by Technical body (AQCS) after arrival
as unwanted, undeclared, restricted and prohibited
items including animal origin material can be mixed very
easily without declaration or by improper declaration.

The clearing/referring Custom officials do not
have Technical expertise in this regard and can easily be
misguided by Importers/clearing agencies by submitting
improper/incomplete information.
Feed/Feed supplement/Kind
Chapter 23 (ITC-HS code 2309)
“Preparation of kind used in Animal Feeding”.

Mixing of unwanted, undeclared, restricted and prohibited
items including animal origin/MBM material in animal feed and
preparations cannot be ruled out. Misdeclaration/Mixing of
restricted and prohibited items is very easy in feed
preparations which cannot be detected by Custom referring
officials who do not have expertise in this regard.

Mere declaration of non-animal origin status of animal feed by
the Importer and production of related manufacturing /analysis
report is not sufficient to allow clearance. Proper technical
examination is very much necessary before release.
