BIS registration and product certification support for businesses manufacturing, importing or selling regulated products in India.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is India's national standards body, established under the BIS Act, 2016, to regulate the standardisation, marking and quality certification of goods. Under its Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS), a wide range of electronics and IT products, along with select solar and low-voltage equipment categories, must carry the BIS Standard Mark before they can be manufactured, imported or sold in India — selling without it can mean products held at customs or pulled from the market.
BIS certification is granted only to the manufacturing entity, not to importers or traders directly — so foreign manufacturers typically register through an Authorised Indian Representative (AIR). We assess whether your product falls under a mandatory BIS scheme, coordinate testing with a BIS-recognised laboratory, prepare and file the registration application, and manage renewals and surveillance so your certification and R-number stay valid.
A wide range of electronics and IT goods, along with select solar and low-voltage switchgear categories, fall under the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS) as notified by MeitY and other ministries — we assess your specific product against the current applicable list.
Yes. BIS registration is granted only to the manufacturer, so foreign manufacturers apply through an Authorised Indian Representative (AIR), which we can help arrange and manage.
No — BIS issues registration only in the manufacturer's name. Importers and traders can facilitate the process on behalf of their manufacturing unit, or ask the manufacturer to register under its own brand.
Timelines vary by product category and testing requirements, largely driven by lab testing turnaround and BIS processing — we give you a specific estimate once we've reviewed your product.
