Under the Dangerous Chemicals Control Act, importers of listed dangerous chemicals need a licence and a permit for each consignment from the Dangerous Chemicals Control Board. Apply for the permit before the goods leave India. Pharmaceuticals and APIs require Pharmacy Board registration and import authorisation. To claim the CECPA tariff preference, request the certificate of origin when you place the order, as it must be issued at the time of export. Dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA rules.
