Introduction

In India, the electronics and IT sector is growing rapidly. Products like mobile phones, laptops, LED lights, power banks, adapters, and many more are becoming a part of everyday life. In order to make sure that these products are safe, the government of India has made BIS CRS registration mandatory in India.

Now, having BIS CRS in India is not just a legal requirement; in fact, it directly protects consumers from unsafe or poor-quality products. For manufacturers and importers, it also ensures that products can be legally sold/imported in the Indian market without the risk of penalties, product seizures, or bans.

What is BIS CRS Registration in India?

BIS CRS (Compulsory Registration Scheme) registration is mandatory for certain electronic and IT products that are notified under the Applicable Product list. It applies to items such as mobile phones, laptops, LED lights, power banks, and several other gadgets that are listed under the CRS scheme. Further, it applies to both Indian manufacturers and foreign manufacturers who want to export the notified products.

Who should apply for a BIS CRS Registration in India?

All manufacturers (Indian and foreign) who are producing the notified IT products to sell in India are required to obtain a BIS CRS registration before selling their products in the Indian market. 

Note: 
Importers and traders cannot apply directly for BIS CRS Certification for their product. The manufacturers are advised to provide the certificate to the Indian Importers so that they can get the customs clearance.
