ISI MARK CERTIFICATION
ISI Mark Certification is mandatory for many products in India, and non-compliance means penalties, market blocking, or product seizure. We simplify the entire ISI marking process by managing your testing, factory inspection, and BIS application so you get fast, hassle-free approval.
ISI
What is ISI Mark?
The ISI Mark is the official proof that a product meets the safety, quality, and performance standards set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). Before a product earns this mark, it goes through detailed laboratory testing and a BIS evaluation to confirm it matches the required Indian Standard. Although “ISI” comes from the old Indian Standards Institution, the mark remains one of India’s most recognised symbols of product compliance and trust.
What the ISI Mark Really Means?
- Verified Quality: The product isn’t just claimed to be good—it has actually passed BIS-approved tests that check durability, safety, and performance.
- Consumer Confidence: Buyers can trust that the product isn’t risky, defective, or poorly manufactured.
- Mandatory Compliance (for many products): Items like electrical appliances, steel products, cement, and pressure cookers cannot be sold legally in India without the ISI Mark.
Specialties
We Can Do It All
Most ISI applications get delayed or rejected because of incorrect IS standard selection, incomplete documentation, mismatched test reports, or technical errors during BIS submission. We cut through all of that by handling the entire ISI certification process end-to-end, standards mapping, documentation, product testing, BIS portal filing, factory audit support, and final licence approval.
1. Standards Mapping & ISI Eligibility Check
We identify the exact Indian Standard (IS) your product must comply with and confirm whether ISI Mark Certification is mandatory for it. No wrong standard selection, no misclassification, no wasted time, and no avoidable rejections.
2. Documentation & Technical File Preparation for ISI
We compile a complete ISI-ready technical file, including manufacturing details, process charts, QMS documentation, product specifications, declarations, and all mandatory BIS forms required before testing. Everything is built to pass without objections.
3. Product Testing & BIS Licence Application (ISI Scheme)
We coordinate testing with BIS-recognized laboratories, validate every report, and handle your full ISI licence application on the BIS portal. All submissions are accurate, tracked, and corrected instantly if BIS raises any technical queries.
4. Licence Grant, Factory Audit & Ongoing ISI Compliance
We manage the entire licence approval process, support your factory audit, respond to BIS observations, and ensure you maintain ISI compliance with proper marking, surveillance, and timely renewals, so your certificate never lapses.

FAQs
How long does ISI Certification take?
On average, ISI certification takes 4–6 weeks, depending on factory readiness, testing timelines, and how quickly documents are prepared. Delays usually happen due to incorrect documentation, calibration issues, or non-compliant test reports, all of which we eliminate upfront.
Is product testing mandatory for ISI Mark Certification?
Yes. Every ISI product must undergo testing in a BIS-recognized laboratory, and the test results must match the exact parameters of the relevant Indian Standard. BIS will not grant a licence without passing test reports.
Do foreign manufacturers also need ISI Certification?
Yes. Any manufacturer, Indian or foreign must obtain an ISI licence if their product is in the mandatory list. Foreign manufacturers must appoint an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) to handle licensing, surveillance inspections, and compliance with BIS requirements.
What happens after the ISI licence is approved?
After approval, the manufacturer must follow BIS marking guidelines, maintain quality control records, undergo periodic surveillance audits, and send samples for routine testing. Non-compliance can lead to licence suspension or cancellation.
What is the cost of getting ISI Mark Certification?
ISI certification costs vary depending on the Indian Standard, testing requirements, factory readiness, and BIS licence fees. The total cost typically includes BIS application fee, test charges, factory inspection charges, and annual marking fees. Most manufacturers overpay because they choose the wrong labs or submit incorrect samples we optimize the entire process so you only pay what’s necessary and avoid retesting costs.
