Obtaining BIS Certification (Bureau of Indian Standards) is mandatory for a wide range of products entering the Indian market, particularly in sectors such as electronics, construction, consumer goods, and others. While it might seem straightforward, many companies—even experienced ones—make costly mistakes during the certification process.
If you’re a manufacturer, importer, startup, or consultant, this blog is your go-to guide to avoid the top errors and ensure a smooth, successful certification experience.
⚠️ Mistake 1: Ignoring Product Scope in the BIS Mandate
Many companies assume their product doesn’t fall under BIS scope, only to face customs holds or legal issues later.How to Avoid: Always verify your product category against the latest mandatory BIS product list. The categories are frequently updated
📝 Mistake 2: Incomplete or Incorrect Technical Documentation
Submitting outdated test reports or missing critical technical documents is one of the biggest reasons for rejection.How to Avoid: Maintain a checklist of required documents (test reports, product drawings, manufacturing address proof, etc.) and ensure they’re valid, complete, and accurate.
🏭 Mistake 3: Choosing an Unqualified Lab or Partner
Using non-BIS-approved labs or consulting unreliable agents can lead to invalid reports and financial loss.How to Avoid: Always choose a BIS-recognized laboratory and verified compliance consultants. A wrong partner means starting all over again.
⌛ Mistake 4: Delays in Testing and Sample Management
Many applicants don’t plan ahead for sample testing, logistics, and retesting delays.
📤 Mistake 5: Lack of Post-Certification Compliance Awareness
Getting the certificate is only half the job—many companies forget about labeling rules, renewal dates, and surveillance audits.
