One Step Ahead in Compliance – BIS Import Certification Simplified

In the fast-paced world of international trade, compliance is not just a necessity—it’s a competitive advantage. When it comes to importing goods into India, obtaining BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification is one of the most crucial steps for smooth entry and legal clearance. With EVTL India as your partner, you can stay one step ahead in compliance, thanks to a simplified and streamlined  BIS Certification for Import  process.

What is BIS Import Certification?

BIS Certification is a mandatory requirement for specific products to ensure they meet the quality, safety, and reliability standards defined by the Bureau of Indian Standards. These standards safeguard consumer interests, maintain product integrity, and ensure uniformity in quality across various imported goods, especially electronics, electrical appliances, steel, chemicals, toys, and more. Under the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS) or the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS), foreign and Indian manufacturers must obtain BIS certification before their goods can enter or be sold in the Indian market.

Why BIS Certification Matters for Importers

In today’s regulatory environment, importing uncertified or non-compliant goods can lead to heavy penalties, seizure of shipments, and long delays in customs clearance. BIS certification not only ensures that your products meet Indian standards but also demonstrates your brand’s commitment to quality and safety.

Here’s why being BIS-certified is essential:

• Legal Requirement: Products notified under BIS schemes cannot be sold or imported without certification.

• Market Access: Certification ensures your products can legally and smoothly enter the Indian market.

• Consumer Trust: BIS marks are associated with quality and compliance, improving buyer confidence.

• Avoid Penalties: Non-compliance may lead to blacklisting, confiscation, and legal action by authorities.
  
  

The Challenges in BIS Certification
