Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Yes. For the foreign manufacturers who sell their product to Bangalore or any part of India, the requirement is to get FMCS certification if the product has mandatory BIS certification norms.
A number of weeks would be required for the testing of the product, completion of the necessary documentation, inspection of the factory and review of the product by the BIS before granting a certificate. Those manufacturers who are planning to enter the Bangalore market should start the process in good time.
Certainly, before delivering the items to Bangalore or anywhere else in India, the BIS officers inspect whether the production procedures at the plant in another country are appropriate according to Indian standards.
Incomplete documentation, incorrect product classification, non-compliant test report or observations made during the factory inspection process are often the cause of delay.
An FMCS certification consultant in Bangalore with experience can facilitate manufacturers in ensuring proper documentation, proper identification of standards, ensuring smooth coordination with BIS and expedient approval for getting market entry in Bangalore and throughout India.
