How BIS certification works for products under Scheme-IV

1. Confirm the essential requirement and the product varieties to cover
2. Get a test report from a laboratory BIS accepts, or arrange testing in the factory
3. Apply to BIS with the application form, inspection and testing plan and documents
4. BIS factory visit, testing in the factory and drawing of a verification sample
5. Grant of the Certificate of Conformity for the factory

Testing. The application carries a test report, no more than 180 days old, from a laboratory BIS accepts (its own or BIS-recognised labs, or government labs it has empanelled), unless BIS assesses the product by testing in the factory. BIS then visits the factory to assess production, quality control and testing, and draws a verification sample.

Timeline. BIS’s guidelines expect a Certificate of Conformity to be granted within 60 days of the application, not counting time spent testing in the factory, and within 180 days where it is the first CoC for the product anywhere in India.

Fees. An annual CoC fee of ₹50,000 for large enterprises, paid in advance, with concessions until 31 May 2029 of 80% for micro enterprises and start-ups, 50% for small and 20% for medium enterprises; plus inspection fees for BIS’s factory visits and the cost of testing.

Mark on product. Labelling as the Certificate of Conformity specifies, with the CoC number BIS assigns (Scheme-IV does not use the ISI mark).
