BIS Certification Consultant in Germany: Your Trusted Partner for BIS Compliance

Germany is a global leader in manufacturing and exports, known for its advanced engineering, automotive innovation, precision machinery, chemicals, and pharmaceutical products. For German manufacturers aiming to tap into the lucrative Indian market, BIS Certification is a mandatory compliance requirement.

At Standphill India, we specialize in delivering comprehensive BIS Certification Services in Germany under both the ISI Mark and FMCS Scheme. We are a trusted BIS Certification Consultant in Germany, helping manufacturers gain market access in India efficiently and affordably.

Key BIS Certification Schemes Covered by Standphill India

At Standphill India, we assist German manufacturers with all major BIS-related compliance schemes required to enter the Indian market:

1. FMCS (Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme)

This scheme allows foreign manufacturers—including those based in Germany—to obtain BIS certification for products without having a physical presence in India. It includes factory audits, product sample testing in BIS-approved labs, and strict adherence to Indian standards. Products like aluminium extrusions, laminated glass, and vinyl resins typically fall under FMCS.

2. CRS (Compulsory Registration Scheme)

The CRS applies to electronic and IT products, such as LED lighting, mobile phones, power adapters, and laptops. Under this scheme, German electronics manufacturers must register with BIS and meet the technical requirements before selling in India.

3. WPC Approval

The Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC) Wing under the Ministry of Communications regulates the import and use of wireless products in India. German brands exporting Bluetooth devices, Wi-Fi routers, and RF modules must obtain WPC clearance before market entry.

4. EPR Authorization (Extended Producer Responsibility)

Standphill India also supports German manufacturers in obtaining EPR Authorization for:

4 (1) . E-Waste: For electronics and electrical products

4 (2) . Plastic Waste: For plastic packaging and single-use products

EPR is mandatory for manufacturers, importers, and brand owners (PIBOs) selling goods in India, ensuring sustainable end-of-life management.

Why German Manufacturers Need BIS Certification

1. Mandatory for Market Access

BIS Certification is legally required for a wide range of products to be imported or sold in the Indian market. Without this certification, customs clearance is not granted, and the products cannot be marketed legally in India.

2. FMCS Scheme

For foreign manufacturers, BIS operates under the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS). This scheme allows international companies to obtain BIS Certification without a physical office in India.

3. Demonstrating Compliance with Indian Standards

Every product must comply with specific Indian Standards (IS codes) to ensure safety, quality, and reliability. German manufacturers must align their product specifications and manufacturing processes with these standards to qualify.

Step-by-Step: How to Get BIS Certification in Germany

1. Identify Relevant Indian Standards

Begin by determining the applicable Indian Standard (IS code) for your product. For example:

1. ) IS 617 for Aluminium Extrusions

2. ) IS 18297 for Cabinet Hinges

3. ) IS 2553 (Part 1) for Laminated Safety Glass

4. ) IS 10146 for Vinyl Resins (e.g., Vestolit)

2. Prepare the Necessary Documentation

Collect all required documents:

1. Company profile

2. Manufacturing process flow chart

3. Product specifications

4. Factory layout

5. Quality control and testing procedures

6. Previous test reports (if available)

3. Set Up an In-House Lab

A mandatory requirement under FMCS is that manufacturers must maintain an in-house laboratory for testing key product parameters. The lab must comply with BIS testing norms.

4. Application Submission

Submit your application via the BIS online portal, attaching all required documents, a signed undertaking, and payment of the necessary fees.

5. Factory Inspection by BIS Officials

BIS officers will travel to your factory in Germany for on-site inspection to:

1. Evaluate production and quality control systems

2. Verify your in-house testing capabilities

3. Pick product samples for lab testing

6. Product Testing in BIS-Recognized Labs

The product samples are sent to BIS-approved labs in India for detailed testing. The product must pass all prescribed tests to qualify.

7. Rectify Any Non-Conformities

If any non-conformities are found in inspection or testing, Standphill India will guide you to make corrections and reapply.

8. Obtain BIS License

Once the inspection and testing are successful, you receive the BIS License. You can now affix the ISI mark and export your certified product to India.

Examples of German Products Requiring BIS Certification

German manufacturers across several sectors need BIS compliance. Here are a few examples:

1. ) Aluminium Extrusions

German companies producing aluminium profiles must comply with IS 617:2021. This includes architectural and industrial-grade aluminium extrusions.

2. ) Cabinet Hinges

High-quality cabinet hinges from German hardware manufacturers fall under IS 18297:2023, and must be certified for structural strength and finish.

3. ) Vinyl Resins

Companies like Vestolit GmbH, producing vinyl resins used in PVC manufacturing, need BIS certification as per IS 10146.

4.) Laminated Safety Glass

Used in automobiles and architecture, laminated glass must conform to IS 2553 (Part 1) for shatter-resistance and light transmission.
