BIS Certification For Footwear - Max Solution Consultant | ISI Mark Consultants
The Department of Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry notified that footwear manufacturing units, including foreign manufacturing units exporting footwear to India, must obtain BIS certification for footwear to ensure the quality and safety of footwear products. The Footwear Quality Control Order (QCO), which comes into effect on August 1, 2024, requires footwear manufacturers to comply with the new quality guidelines of the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). This order prohibits manufacturers from producing shoes without a BIS certificate. Failure to comply with the BIS regulations may result in criminal prosecution, imprisonment, and heavy fines.
The BIS department also grants BIS registration for footwear to foreign manufacturers except for manufacturers in China under the “Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS)”. Without the ISI mark on footwear, no company can manufacture, import, distribute, sell, hire, lease, store, or exhibit footwear covered under BIS certification in India. The ISI mark on footwear is a certification mark issued by BIS and is a symbol of quality and compliance with standards. The BIS certification process involves testing samples for compliance with specific standards set by BIS. BIS certification ensures that all types of footwear, including safety, sports, casual, derby, sandals, slippers, rubber Hawai chappals, etc., meet the prescribed BIS standards.
To summarize, obtaining a BIS license is a complex and time-consuming process and involves a number of crucial steps for any business unit, such as the development of footwear as per the relevant Indian standards, preparation of documents, and on-site factory verification of the manufacturer’s competence to manufacture and test footwear. Therefore, hiring a consultant with expertise in the BIS licensing process is advised.
