BIS CRS CERTIFICATION FOR ELECTRONIC PRODUCTS

BIS CRS (Compulsory Registration Scheme) – Overview

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), in partnership with the Department of Electronics and Information Technology, introduced the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS) in 2012 to enhance the safety and quality of electronic and IT products in India. This initiative was created in response to the increasing number of low-quality, unsafe, and counterfeit electronic products entering the Indian market. By making registration mandatory, the CRS ensures that every manufacturer—whether domestic or foreign—tests their products as per Indian Standards before selling them in India. Obtaining BIS registration allows manufacturers to demonstrate product safety, boost customer trust, and comply with regulatory requirements, ultimately contributing to consumer protection and market transparency.

Under the BIS CRS scheme, manufacturers receive a registration certificate allowing them to use the Standard Mark along with a unique “R” number. This certification is based on the manufacturer’s self-declaration of conformity to Indian Standards. According to BIS regulations, no electronic product covered under CRS can be manufactured, sold, imported, or distributed without this registration and the CRS mark.

The BIS CRS scheme was introduced for IT and electronic items, requiring BIS registration for anybody manufacturing electronic goods. BIS CRS registration is mandatory for both Indian manufacturers (having a manufacturing facility in India) and foreign manufacturers (having a manufacturing facility outside India). Registration will be approved after their product is tested at the BIS laboratory. Under the BIS CRS scheme, registration is granted by the BIS.
