About Chapter 93

Chapter 93 of the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) is titled “Arms and ammunition; parts and accessories thereof”. It is part of Section XIX, Arms & Ammunition, the only chapter in that section.

The chapter is divided into 7 headings, from 9301 (military weapons, other than revolvers, pistols and the arms of heading) to 9307 (swords, cutlasses and bayonets). The headings with the most codes that people search for are other firearms and similar devices which operate by the firing of an explosive charge (9303) and other arms, excluding those of heading 9307 (9304).

Every heading is listed below. Under each are the codes that have their own page on Laabam One, 3 codes in this chapter, each with its full classification: its chapter, heading and sub-heading, and the codes beside it.

Every code in this chapter begins with 93: four digits make a heading, six a sub-heading, and eight a tariff item of India's Customs Tariff. How many of those digits a GST tax invoice shows depends on the business, not the goods: under Notification No. 78/2020 – Central Tax, from 1 April 2021, four digits where aggregate turnover in the previous financial year was up to ₹5 crore, and six above it. Up to ₹5 crore, the code may be left off invoices to unregistered buyers.

No GST rate is shown here. GST rates were revised in September 2025, and a rate appears on this site only once it has been checked against the CBIC rate notifications.
