Application submission, document validation, factory inspection, product testing in labs certified by BIS, and certification issuing comprise the process. Foreign manufacturers must apply under the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS). The BIS symbol promises safety and dependability of products. Implementation dates for compliance vary: July 1, 2024 (importers), October 1, 2024 (small manufacturers), January 1, 2025 (micro manufacturers). Compliance raises customer confidence and market credibility.
