Brief: As the national standard agency of India, Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is mainly responsible for standards development, product certification, product mandatory registration and laboratory accreditation. Products exported to India need to pass BIS certification and be labeled before they can enter the Indian market. According to Governmental Order of Department of Heavy Industries and Public Enteprises issued on May 25, 2020, India will implement mandatory BIS certification requirements for automotive wheels and two/three-wheel wheels from October 1, 2020.

The mandatory certification products under the BIS can be divided into two categories: ISI certification, and CRS registration certification. Above mentioned of transparent float glasss, flat transparent sheet glass, safety glass for architectural, building and general uses and safety glass for road transport, are within the scope of ISI certification management. 

The ISI certification covers 137 products in 15 categories. These certifications are mandatory type-5 certification and require factory audit and sampling testing. Mainly for industrial products and consumer goods, such as household appliances, car tires, steel materials and so on. In addition, in order to protect consumer safety and in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, for certain products, such as gas tanks, pressure regulators and valves, BIS requires each batch of goods to be checked by BIS officials before they are put on the market. 

 
According to the regulatory requirements, both the ISI certification and the CRS certification require the Indian resident or the Indian branch of the factory or the head of the office to assume the role of legal agent. ATIC can provide the legal representative services required for ISI certification and CRS registration.
Due to effects of Covid-2019, India has been in a national lockdown since March 24, 2020. BIS has suspended assessment, auditing and relative works.
