HS codes
Stone exports fall under HS chapter 68. Classify precisely — the first six digits are international, the rest are India's ITC-HS extension. Your HS code drives duty, FTA eligibility and the paperwork the buyer's customs will expect.
Export requirements & certifications
- IEC and RCMC from the export promotion council for granite/stone products.
- Radioactivity and material-composition test certificates are required by several markets for natural stone.
- Buyer-specified block/slab dimensions, finish (polished, honed, flamed) and quality-grade approval before shipment.
- Packing method (crating, bundling) suited to ocean freight — breakage claims are common without proper crating.
Requirements change and are buyer- and destination-specific — confirm the current rules with your export promotion council and the buyer before you ship.
Documentation
Every stone shipment needs the core set: commercial invoice, packing list, shipping bill, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin (preferential where an FTA applies), and the category-specific certificates above. See the full export documentation checklist and the stone export guide.
Finding buyers
The reliable method: identify companies that already import stone in your target market from customs data, reach the named procurement contact, and open on the trade signal — not a generic pitch. EximHub does that end to end. Read how to find stone buyers, how to find export buyers or how customs trade data works.
