Grade CDW with specific gravity below 4.00 remains freely exportable. Consignments declared as Grade CDW, or as Baryte without a stated grade in the Shipping Bill, require mandatory specific-gravity testing before export; the test result determines grade for export-policy purposes. Exporters and Customs Brokers must accurately declare the goods' description, grade, specific gravity and ITC(HS) code, supported by relevant documents.....
