Postal departments are the main users of mail processing devices. The postal service used to handle mail primarily through labor-intensive manual sorting using antiquated, expensive manual processes. Postal operations required more accuracy and efficiency, which is why mail processing devices were invented. Among these, the franking machine—also referred to as a "Postage Meter"—emerges as a tool that uses barcode imprints on letters or packages in place of conventional postage stamps. In addition to helping customers choose the right mail classes and special services, the franking machine can safely download and store postage money, enhancing postal operations.
Before being sold or imported/exported into the Indian market, these machines need to be registered with the Bureau of Internal Trade (BIS).
On May 13, 2015, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) issued an order requiring Mail Processing Machines, Postage Machines, and Franking Machines to be registered under the BIS-established Compulsory Registration Scheme in compliance with IS 13252 (Part 1):2010.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in India is responsible for awarding BIS Registration. 2012 saw the launch of the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS) by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). Testing, assessment, and adherence to technical specifications are all part of the BIS CRS registration procedure, which aims to guarantee the quality and safety of electronic goods meant for Indian customers.
