BIS Consultant in Indonesia support can help Indonesian manufacturers understand Indian certification requirements before supplying applicable products to the Indian market. For foreign manufacturers, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) operates the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS), under which eligible overseas manufacturers can obtain a BIS licence for products that conform to the relevant Indian Standard. For a business based in Indonesia, the process involves more than submitting paperwork. The manufacturer needs to understand the applicable Indian Standard, prepare the factory, maintain suitable testing facilities, arrange the required documents, and meet BIS assessment requirements. EVTL India helps Indonesian manufacturers understand these steps and manage the certification journey in a structured way. Why Do Indonesian Manufacturers Need BIS Certification? India has its own product standards and conformity requirements. BIS certification may be voluntary for some products, while certain products are covered by government-notified mandatory requirements such as Quality Control Orders. Under FMCS, a foreign manufacturer can obtain a BIS licence for products manufactured at an overseas facility and conforming to the relevant Indian Standard. Therefore, Indonesian businesses should first check whether BIS certification applies to their particular product before planning exports.How Does the Foreign Manufacturer Process Work? A Top BIS Agent in Indonesia can help manufacturers understand the different stages involved in obtaining certification for the Indian market. The process can broadly be understood as: 1. Identify the Standard Determine the Indian Standard applicable to the product. 2. Check Factory Readiness Review manufacturing machinery, process controls, quality systems, and testing facilities. 3. Prepare Documents Organize product, factory, testing, and AIR-related information. 4. Submit the Application FMCS applications can be submitted online through the Manakonline portal. BIS states that from 1 June 2026, FMCS applications are accepted only through the online portal. 5. Factory Assessment & Testing BIS may visit the manufacturing facility to verify manufacturing and testing infrastructure and draw samples for testing. 6. Licence Grant After satisfactory assessment and test results, the application can proceed toward grant of the BIS licence. What Does Indonesia BIS Registration Mean? Top Indonesia BIS Registration is generally used to describe the BIS certification process followed by Indonesian manufacturers who want to supply applicable products in India. However, it should not be understood as a single registration covering every product manufactured by a company. BIS requires a separate application for each product/Indian Standard and each manufacturing location. This means Indonesian manufacturers should evaluate their products and manufacturing facilities separately. What Should Indonesian Manufacturers Prepare? BIS certification in Indonesia requires preparation both at the documentation level and at the manufacturing facility. Depending on the applicable product and certification requirements, manufacturers may need information relating to: Product specifications Applicable Indian Standard Manufacturing process Factory layout Manufacturing machinery Testing equipment Quality-control arrangements Calibration information Test reports Production details Authorized Indian Representative Other applicable supporting documents BIS highlights details such as manufacturing machinery, test equipment, factory layout, and in-house test reports among areas that should be properly prepared in an application. EVTL India helps Indonesian manufacturers review these requirements before submission. What Happens During Factory Assessment? For foreign manufacturers, BIS may conduct an assessment at the manufacturing facility. The assessment focuses on areas such as manufacturing infrastructure, process controls, quality controls, and testing capabilities. Product conformity may also be established through applicable laboratory testing. Proper factory preparation is therefore an important part of the certification journey.
