HS codes
Toys exports fall under HS chapter 95. 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
- BIS certification under India's Toys (Quality Control) Order applies to most toys manufactured in India — check current applicability for your export-only production with your compliance advisor.
- Destination safety testing: EN 71 for the EU/UK, ASTM F963 for the US, and the equivalent standard elsewhere — usually the buyer's first ask.
- IEC and RCMC from EPCH (Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts) for handcrafted/wooden toys, or the relevant council for other materials.
- Small-parts, choking-hazard and age-grading compliance to the destination's rules.
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 toys 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 toys export guide.
Finding buyers
The reliable method: identify companies that already import toys 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 toys buyers, how to find export buyers or how customs trade data works.
