    BIS ISI Certification Process in Chennai

    At UMSPCS, our certification process adheres to a well-defined process for efficient implementation.

    Step 1: Product Profiling & Indian Standard Identification

    In the BIS ISI certificate, the relevant Indian Standard (IS code) is determined.
    Our team considers:
  • Product specifications
  • Production process
  • BIS Requirements
  • Quality Control Orders (QCOs)
  • Correct identification of the Indian Standard is important to avoid product classification problems, test problems, and delays in application procedures.

    Step 2: Product Testing & Documentation

    Product testing and preparing documentation according to the relevant Indian Standard will be done in the recognised laboratory by the National Accreditation Board for Certification Bodies (NABL).
    The process of assisting involves:
  • Coordinating the product testing process
  • Preparing technical documentations
  • Collecting factory information
  • Quality control documentation
  • Preparation of application forms
  • Good documentation and test results form the basis of an application for BIS registration.

    Step 3: BIS Application Filing

    When testing and documentation are completed, the BIS registration application is filed with the BIS portal.
    Application filing usually consists of:
  • Test reports
  • Factory and production information
  • Technical documentations
  • Government fees prescribed
  • The submitted application then goes to the BIS authorities for further processing

    Step 4: BIS Factory Inspection

    An inspection is carried out by BIS officials to check whether the manufacturer complies with all the certification requirements.
    Inspection usually includes:
  • Manufacturing process
  • Manufacturing facility
  • Quality assurance system
  • Testing facilities are present in the facility
  • Product quality management
  • During the inspection, the BIS official might even take samples of the product to test separately.

    Step 5: Sampling, Testing, and Evaluation of Lab Report

    Samples that are taken during inspection are tested to verify if the products are compliant with the relevant Indian Standards. The lab report is then submitted by the testing lab directly to BIS officials for assessment and certification.

    Step 6: Closure of Observations/Non-Conformity (If Any)

    When there are some observations or non-conformity in any stage of the process, corrective action must be taken.
    Some measures that could be undertaken during this stage include:
  • Process improvement
  • Documentation submission
  • Submission of corrective action report
  • Conformity submission
  • All observations must be satisfactorily addressed before certification can proceed.

    Step 7: Payment of License & Marking Fees

    After successfully conducting the technical evaluation and verifying the compliance, the manufacturer has to make payments for:
  • BIS license fee
  • ISI marking fee
  • Charges for relevant certification
  • This is an indication that the last stage of the certification process has been completed.

    Step 8: Awarding of the ISI License by BIS

    After the successful completion of all the above processes, the ISI license is issued by BIS. Now the manufacturer is allowed to mark their products with the ISI logo, thus proving the compliance of their products with Indian standards.

    Documents Required for BIS ISI Certification

    There will be different documentation requirements depending on the nature of the products being offered. Examples of documents that would be needed are:
