<h1>New Customs Manual 2025 Details Goods Classification, Emphasizes GIR for Accurate Tariff Application and Declarations</h1> The Customs Manual 2025 outlines the methodology for classifying goods under the Indian Customs Tariff, which consists of 21 sections and 98 chapters. Goods are arranged by their degree of manufacture, from natural products to fully finished goods. The Harmonized System (HS) provides codes up to six digits, while India uses an eight-digit system for more detailed classification. The General Rules for Interpretation (GIR) guide the classification process, emphasizing statutory definitions and trade meanings. The manual also discusses the application of tariff rates, the role of the Board in providing guidance, and the importance of accurate declarations for efficient customs processing.
