Subject: Anti-Dumping Duty on imports of "Titanium Dioxide" originating in or
exported from China PR — Implementation -Reg.
Madam/Sir,
Attention is invited to Notification No. 12/2025-Customs (ADD) dated 10.05.2025
recommending the imposition of Anti-Dumping Duty (ADD) on imports of “Titanium Dioxide”
originating in or exported from China PR. The said notification has recommended that Anti
Dumping Duty be levied only for specified end uses, and excludes from its scope Titanium Dioxide
for use in products covered under its description relating to food, pharma, skin-care, textile, fibre, or
nano or ultra fine titanium dioxide.
2. To ensure that ADD is not collected on “Titanium Dioxide” originating in or exported from China
PR when imported for use in excluded sectors and to facilitate smooth clearance of those importers
importing goods for use in those excluded products, a facility is being introduced in Bill of Entry to
make an electronic declaration for those importers importing for use in such excluded products, as
follows:
I / we declare that the goods imported are for use in products of description excluded in terms of
NotificationNo. 12/2025- Customs (ADD) dated 10.05.2025 relating to food, pharma, skin-care,
textiles, fibre, nano or ultrafine titanium dioxide.Without prejudice to any other action taken under
the Customs Act or under Customs Tariff Act, I/we undertake to pay applicable Anti-Dumping Duty
along with interest, if any, in case the goods are supplied for use in products not excluded in terms
of Notification No. 12/2025- Customs (ADD) dated 10.05.2025.
3. To enable those importers of Titanium di-oxide for use in those excluded products/sectors in
terms of the notification, to make electronic declaration during BE filing, DG (Systems) shall issue
suitable advisory relating to system implementation. The officers under your jurisdiction may be
sensitized on the above facility.
4. Any difficulty in implementation of the above circular may be brought to the notice of the
Board.
Hindi version follows.
Yours faithfully,
