BIS Certification in India
The Bureau of Indian Standards is the National Standard Body of India, established by the BIS Act of 2016. It stands committed to the harmonious growth of standardization, marking, and quality certification of goods in India. BIS contributes to the national economy by ensuring that the nation gets safe, reliable, and quality products. Standardization and testing for certification enhance product safety, reduce health hazards, promote import and export substitutions, and control variations of products.
The Indian Government typically requires BIS Certification on most products in the interests of public health and consumer protection. This strengthens consumer confidence while protecting consumers from hazardous products maintained with quality standards.
Types of BIS certification:
1. Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS): Compulsory registration of electronic product manufacturers including a third-party guarantee of safety and quality.
2. Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS): Ensure that the foreign manufacturers follow Indian standards to ensure that their products are as safe and quality as imports are.
3. ECO Mark Certification: It helps in identifying the products that meet the environmental standards.
4. ISI Mark Certification: This service ensures the quality of the product according to Indian standards.
