BIS (ISI MARK) for Foreign Manufacturers
BIS (ISI Mark) for Domestic Product Certification
The CRS is a certification scheme by BIS that mandates certain products to undergo testing and certification to ensure they meet specified Indian safety standards. Products under the CRS cannot be imported, sold, or distributed in India without BIS registration.
Both Indian and foreign manufacturers can apply for CRS. However, foreign manufacturers must designate an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) to act as their liaison with BIS.
CRS covers over 75 product categories, including items like mobile phones, laptops, LED lighting, power adapters, and household appliances. The list of products is periodically updated, so manufacturers should check with BIS for the latest requirements.
CRS registration is valid for two years. After that, it must be renewed, provided there have been no changes in the product design or manufacturing process.
The AIR acts on behalf of foreign manufacturers in all communications and submissions to BIS. This includes submitting applications, handling inquiries, and ensuring compliance with BIS requirements.

Non-compliant products may be seized, and penalties may be imposed. Additionally, manufacturers and importers cannot legally sell or distribute these products in the Indian market without CRS registration.
If the design or manufacturing process of the registered product remains unchanged, retesting is typically not required. However, BIS may conduct random inspections or require retesting to ensure ongoing compliance.
