Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 6212 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 6212

It includes Brassieres & Corsets

How should I document Brassieres & Corsets sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Brassieres & Corsets to the job worker. Declare movement in your records and reconcile when the goods return. If the job worker raises a service invoice, classify it under SAC; your goods remain under the original HSN.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Brassieres & Corsets?

Using a broad or incorrect HSN, ignoring material/form (e.g., raw vs processed), or mixing goods and services on one line. Always match wording to the HSN Notes and keep a classification working paper.

Do spares or accessories of Brassieres & Corsets follow the same HSN?

Not always. Spares are often classified by their own description or by the function/part rule. Check if a specific sub‑heading exists for parts of the main item and describe the part on the invoice.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Brassieres & Corsets?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Brassieres & Corsets are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.

Any import/export nuance for Brassieres & Corsets?

Exports are zero‑rated (with or without payment of IGST) subject to LUT/refund conditions. Imports may attract customs duties in addition to GST. Keep HSN‑wise description consistent across invoice, shipping bill and BOE.
