How much do you know about BIS certificate?

1. The brief introduction of BIS certificate:

BIS certification is the abbreviation of The Bureau of Indian Standards. According to The BIS Act, 1986, the Bureau of Indian Standards is specifically responsible for product certification. It is also the only product certification body in India. Since BIS’s predecessor, the Indian Standards Institute, started product certification in 1955, it has been 50 years of Indian product certification. At present, BIS has issued more than 30,000 product certification certificates, covering almost every industrial field such as agricultural products, textiles, and electronics.

The ISI mark issued by BIS is a sign that a product complies with Indian standards and is also a proof of compliance with product specifications. All BIS certifications implement Indian standards. Those who pass the test and obtain the certificate shall use the common ISI logo. For over 40 years, the IS logo has been a symbol of quality products in India and its neighbouring countries. Since a considerable number of Indian standards are consistent with the ISO standards of the International Organization for Standardization and the IEC standards of the International Electrotechnical Commission, the Indian standard numbers are also basically consistent with the ISO/IEC standards. Some standards also have double numbers, such as IS/ISO or IS/IEC, so they are dubbed IS/ISO, IS/IEC.

Since July 2013, BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) has stipulated that 52 products must be subject to mandatory registration. Products must be tested to specified standards and registered in a BIS accredited local laboratory in India. And after the BIS is successfully registered, the words “Self declaration -Conforming to IS.. (relevant Indian Standard) Registration No. xxxx” will be printed on the product’s label or minimum package. Only in this way can they enter the Indian market, otherwise the goods will not be able to clear customs.
