Introduction

A Chennai-based electronics importer recently found their shipment of wireless routers held up at customs. Why? The products lacked valid BIS Certification for electronic products under the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS). This delay cost the company not only demurrage fees but also market trust. They turned to Diligence Certification to urgently resolve the matter.

This is not an isolated incident. Many importers and manufacturers still don’t realise that more than 70 categories of electronic products now require BIS CRS Registration for sale in India. Without it, business operations can grind to a halt.

The BIS Compulsory Registration Scheme (BIS CRS registration) is targeted exclusively at electronic and IT products. Under this scheme, manufacturers must prove compliance with Indian safety standards before selling their products here. If you’re a manufacturer, importer, or distributor of electronic products, getting certification from the BIS is mandatory to navigate through potential legal challenges and win consumer confidence.

BIS CRS Registration

What is the BIS Certification for Electronic Products?

BIS Certification for Electronic Products is a mandatory approval provided by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) that assesses electronic products sold in India to make sure they meet safety, quality and performance standards. The aim is to protect consumers from hazardous or low-quality electronics and create a uniformity of quality controlled products in the market.

Important Points:

BIS certification is mandatory for a number of electronic products that are be sold, imported, or supplied in India. Generally, this includes mobile phones, laptops, tablets, LED (lights), power banks, batteries, adapters, CCTV Cameras, and home appliances. BIS certification includes testing for products done by BIS recognized laboratory according to Indian Standards (IS). The certification process includes two main schemes: Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS)- for IT and electronic products. As part of this process the manufacturers (Indian and International) and supplier/importer are required to apply.

What is the BIS Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS)?

  • The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) authorities framed the ‘Compulsory Registration Scheme’ to bring regulation and monitoring on electronic goods quality. Under this scheme, manufacturers must get their electronic products tested in BIS-approved laboratories before applying for certification.

    Major features of the registration under BIS CRS include:

    •  Applicable to all electronic and IT products notified under this scheme.
    •  Mandatory for both domestic and foreign manufacturers.
    •  Product testing from BIS-approved labs is a key step.
    •  An Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) of foreign manufacturers.

    It is issued for a maximum period of two years and needs to be renewed on time.

Electronic Products Covered Under BIS CRS Registration

The list of electronic products that require BIS CRS registration keeps expanding as the Indian government enforces stringent quality regulations. Some of the key electronic products that fall under BIS compulsory registration include:

  • Mobile Phones & Tablets
  • LED Televisions
  • Laptops & Notebooks
  • Power Adaptors & Chargers
  • LED Lighting & Control Gear
  • Wireless Keyboards
  • Smartwatches & Fitness Bands
  • Electronic Musical Instruments
  • Digital Cameras & Video Recorders
  • Printers & Scanners
  • Set-Top Boxes
  • Microwave Ovens
  • UPS & Inverters

Manufacturers of these electronic products must obtain BIS CERTIFICATION REGISTRATION to legally sell their products in India.

Benefits of BIS Certification for Electronic Products

The various advantages of obtaining BIS CRS registration are as follows:

  • Legal Compliance: Guarantees compliance with Indian regulatory standards; thereby preventing penalties and legal issues.
  • Consumer Trust: Enhances the credibility and consumer confidence in the safety and quality of the product.
  • Market Access: Allows easy entry into the Indian marketplace, free of any regulatory barriers.
  • Competitive Edge: It gives an edge for the brand over the non-certified competition.
  • Product Quality Assurance: Ensures safety and performance standards of electronic products.

BIS Certification Registration Process for Electronic Products

The BIS certification process for any electronic products is more or less as follows:

Step 1: Identify the Product Category

Manufacturers must first identify whether their products fall under the BIS Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS). If the product is listed under the BIS mandatory category, certification is required.

Step 2: Product Testing in a BIS-Approved Laboratory

The following tests are to be done on the product in a BIS-recognized laboratory to check compliance to Indian standards. The test report is a prime document in the process of certification. 

Step 3: Submission of Application to BIS

After the successful tests, the manufacturer or his Authorized Indian Representative (AIR), in the case of foreign applicants, must submit an application for BIS CRS registration along with other documents. 

Step 4: Review and Approval

BIS authorities review the application, test reports, and other documents. All documents in compliance with standards will lead to BIS granting the certification. 

Step 5: Granting of BIS Registration Number

Upon successful approval, BIS gives the manufacturer a unique registration number. The manufacturer must affix the BIS Standard Mark to the product and its packaging. 

Step 6: Renewal of BIS Certification

BIS certification is valid for two years and must be renewed prior to the certificate’s expiry for the repossession of products in India.

Documents Required for BIS CRS Registration

To apply for BIS certification for electronic products, the following documents are required:

  • Manufacturer’s Business License
  • Product Testing Report from a BIS-Approved Lab
  • Factory Address Proof
  • ISO 9001 Certificate (if applicable)
  • Trademark Registration Certificate (if any)
  • Import-Export Code (IEC) for foreign manufacturers
  • Details of the Authorized Indian Representative (AIR)
  • Declaration of Conformity
  • Technical Specifications & User Manual

Role of Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) in BIS CRS Registration

Foreign manufacturers intending to sell their electronic products in India must appoint an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR). The AIR plays a vital role in the certification process by acting as a local point of contact with BIS authorities.

The AIR is responsible for the following activities: 

  • Submission of applications on behalf of foreign manufacturers. 
  • Coordination with the BIS and testing laboratories. 
  • Ensuring that the product meets Indian standards.
