Digital cameras in India must comply with Indian Standard IS 13252 (Part 1): 2010 by means of the BIS CRS (Compulsory Registration Scheme) certification, therefore guaranteeing conformity. Manufacturers have to send their goods for testing at BIS-approved labs together with the required paperwork. Foreign companies have to name an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR). BIS certifies the product after successful testing and application acceptance, therefore enabling the BIS CRS Mark to be carried by it. The certification has two years validity and needs renewal. Legal fines might follow from non-compliance. Go to the BIS official website for specifics.
