BIS Product Categories Requiring Mandatory Certification
Understanding the scope of mandatory BIS certification helps manufacturers and importers confirm their specific compliance obligations.
Understanding the scope of mandatory BIS certification helps manufacturers and importers confirm their specific compliance obligations.
Mandatory certification categories span a range of products including many electronics and IT products (under CRS), electrical appliances, and various other categories notified under BIS's mandatory certification framework.
This list has expanded over time as BIS has notified additional product categories under mandatory certification, meaning manufacturers should verify current applicability rather than relying on outdated category lists.
Given the legal consequences of selling covered products without proper certification, proactively confirming your specific product's current certification status — rather than assuming based on general product category — is an important compliance step.
