Which BIS scheme
fits the product?
Product category and manufacturing location decide the route—not the phrase “BIS certificate”.
ISI / Scheme-I
Factory-based product certification for many products covered by Indian Standards and Quality Control Orders.
CRS / Scheme-II
Self-declaration registration supported by recognised-laboratory testing for notified electronics, IT and related goods.
FMCS
Eligible foreign factories use a manufacturer-facing route with an Authorised Indian Representative.
Scheme-X and others
Covered machinery, hallmarking and management systems each follow distinct conformity-assessment frameworks.
BIS Product Certification
Right standard. Right scheme. Right evidence.
There is no universal BIS registration.
A test report, ISI licence, CRS number and FMCS licence are not interchangeable. Product notification, factory location and scheme rules control the path.
What you receive,
ready to use.
We first determine whether the product belongs under ISI, CRS, FMCS, Scheme-X, hallmarking or systems certification, then scope testing, factory readiness and the correct application.

What must be
in place.
A manufacturer—not merely a trader—responsible for the product at the declared manufacturing location.
A product covered by the relevant Indian Standard and, where compulsory, the current Quality Control Order.
Manufacturing and quality-control capability appropriate to the selected scheme.
A test report from the required recognised laboratory where applicable.
For eligible foreign factories, an Authorised Indian Representative and India-facing legal undertakings.
Certification ordinarily attaches to the manufacturer and a defined factory—not merely a trader, importer or brand owner.
Start with product and factory
The same commercial brand can need different approvals for different products and factories.
| Decision | ISI / Scheme-I | CRS / Scheme-II | FMCS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common fit | Indian factory and covered product | Notified electronics, IT or solar product | Eligible foreign factory |
| Core evidence | Factory controls, testing and assessment | Recognised-lab report and declaration | Factory assessment, AIR and testing |
| Identifier | Standard Mark / licence | Registration number | Standard Mark / licence |
