BIS (ISI Mark) Certification for Foreign Manufacturers
Access the Indian Market with BIS ISI Mark Certification


The BIS ISI Mark Certification for Foreign Manufacturers is issued under the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS) by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). This certification enables foreign manufacturers to use the ISI Mark on products that comply with applicable Indian Standards, allowing them to export and sell regulated products in the Indian market.

Under the FMCS scheme, foreign manufacturers producing products covered under the mandatory BIS certification list must obtain a BIS license before supplying their products to India. The certification confirms that the products meet Indian quality, safety, and performance standards through factory inspections, product testing, and continuous compliance.

At Realgreno LLP, we provide end-to-end assistance to foreign manufacturers for obtaining BIS ISI Mark Certification, ensuring a smooth certification process while meeting all BIS and Indian regulatory requirements.
