What is BIS Registration
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is the National Standard Body of India, established under the BIS Act, 2016, for the harmonious development of standards, marking, and quality certification of goods. Previously, it functioned under the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution and was known as the Indian Standards Institution (ISI), until it was replaced by BIS in 1987. The primary objective of BIS is to ensure that products manufactured by various companies meet defined standards and are not of substandard quality, thereby safeguarding consumers from potential hazards. BIS plays a critical role in formulating standards for different product categories and also revises existing standards to align them with international norms. It mandates that all manufacturers, whether domestic or foreign, whose products fall under the mandatory certification category, must obtain BIS certification before introducing their products into the market. Although not all products are included in the mandatory list, obtaining BIS certification significantly enhances product reliability, consumer safety, and market credibility, making it an important step for manufacturers aiming for consumer satisfaction and broader market reach.

Environmental Benefits
BIS does not allow certain chemicals to be used in the manufacturing of products which is hazardous to the environment and humans. So, BIS-certified products help reduce the negative impact on the environment.
Types of BIS Registration
There are different categories in the BIS Registration. Each category covers a certain range of products depending on the nature and use of that product. The following are different types of BIS Registration
1. Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS)
The Compulsory Registration Scheme applies to certain products like electronic & IT products. Products that are covered under CRS have to be mandatorily registered under BIS. These products are generally electronic products that can be hazardous if not tested before use. To maintain the quality standard and the safety of products, BIS has mandated that these products be certified under the Compulsory Registration scheme.
2. Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS
If a foreign manufacturer wants to enter the Indian market and sell their products in India, they have to certify their products under the FMCS scheme. It allows foreign manufacturers to certify their products according to Indian Standards so that they can be easily sold in the Indian market.
3. ISI Mark Scheme
This scheme applies to Indian manufacturers who are not covered under CRS. Indian manufacturers who want to get the ISI mark should register their products under this scheme. It confirms that the product is of high quality and meets Indian Standards, which also enhances the credibility of the products and the manufacturer.
4. ECO Mark Scheme
Manufacturers producing eco-friendly products need to get their products certified under this scheme. Products certified under this scheme are made of eco-friendly raw materials and also do not have a bad impact on the Environment. Once the product is registered under this scheme, an ecomark is provided to be used on products so that consumers can easily identify that the product is eco-friendly.
5. BIS Hallmarking Scheme
BIS Hallmarking scheme is mainly applicable for Gold & Silver products. Jewellery made of Gold & Silver, which are certified under the BIS Hallmarking Scheme, is considered pure & of good Quality. Consumers must check Hallmark on Gold & Silver products before buying.
6. Simplified process for Domestic Manufacturer (Tatkal Scheme)

What is the BIS Laboratory Recognition Scheme?
The Bureau of Indian Standards certifies various categories of products under various schemes. Most of the products are generally mechanical and have come into existence after going through various manual and automated processes.
BIS certification confirms the quality & safety standard of the products, which can not be confirmed until and unless the whole process is verified. To do this verification, a laboratory setup is required for testing samples of the product to be certified by BIS.
It is not practical for the Bureau of Indian Standards to establish laboratories all over India to cater to a large range of products for BIS registration. So, BIS launched the Laboratory Recognition scheme. Under this scheme, BIS allows private players to establish such laboratories. Under Section 13(4) of the BIS ACT, 2016, BIS has the power to recognize any laboratory in India or any other country for carrying out Testing of samples concerning the use of the Standard Mark and such other functions as may be necessary. The Rules also provide for derecognition of a recognized laboratory by the Bureau for non-fulfillment of any condition laid down at the time of recognition. The guidelines for recognition and derecognition of the laboratories have been laid down in this Scheme.
