Overview of CHIMS Registration
The CHIMS (Chip Import Monitoring System) Registration is a mandatory import policy by the
Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) for importers of specific electronic integrated
circuits. Introduced in May 2021, it requires importers to register online, converting 'free' import
policies to 'free subject to obligatory registration' for HS codes 85423100, 85423200, 85423300,
85423900, and 85429000. The automated system generates a unique registration number, ensuring smooth
customs clearance.
Why is CHIMS Registration Mandatory?
- Customs clearance for electronic goods is not possible without CHIMS Registration.
- Non-compliance may lead to punitive actions and hefty penalties.
- It supports the government’s initiative to promote domestic manufacturing and strengthen the
electronics industry.
