What is BIS certification?

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) licenses manufacturers to put the ISI Mark on products that meet the relevant Indian Standard. For many products the mark is compulsory: they cannot be made or sold in India without it.

BIS grants the licence after testing the product and inspecting the factory. Our job is to get the application right the first time and have you ready for both.

Who usually needs it

Manufacturers of notified products
Goods such as electrical appliances, toys and packaged drinking water.
New factories starting production
You need the licence before the first batch goes to market.
Brands adding a new product line
Each product is licensed against its own Indian Standard.
Suppliers to tenders and large buyers
Many buyers insist on the ISI Mark even where it is voluntary.

  1. 01

    Find the right standard

    We identify the Indian Standard that applies to your product and what it requires.

  2. 02

    Documents and factory readiness

    We prepare the paperwork and check your machinery, process and test equipment against the standard.

  3. 03

    Application

    We file the application with BIS and handle the queries that follow.

    Product testing

    We coordinate sample testing with a BIS-recognised laboratory.

  5. 05

    Factory inspection

    We prepare your team for the BIS inspection and are with you on the day.

What we need from you

We prepare the application; you supply the facts about your product and factory.

  • Factory registration and address proof, such as Udyam, incorporation certificate or factory licence
  • Manufacturing process flow chart
  • List of machinery, and of test equipment with calibration certificates
  • Product specifications, drawings and brand name
  • Raw material details with test certificates
  • Factory layout plan and location map
  • ID and authorisation letter for the authorised signatory
Their team sits with us through the documentation, so everything gets completed very fast. We never had to struggle with the paperwork on our own.

Questions we get asked

Is the ISI Mark mandatory?

For products covered by a government Quality Control Order, yes. For other products it is voluntary, though buyers often expect it.

How long does it take?

Typically 4 weeks with us. Testing time and the inspection date can move this either way.

Who grants the licence?

The Bureau of Indian Standards. We are your consultants: we prepare the application and get you ready for testing and inspection.

Do we need our own testing lab?

The standard sets out which tests you must be able to carry out yourself. We check your setup and tell you exactly what is missing.

Is BIS the same as ISO?

No. The ISI Mark certifies that a product meets an Indian Standard. ISO certificates cover how a company is managed.

What does it cost?

It depends on the product and the testing involved, so we quote for each case. Government and laboratory fees are separate.
