What Is BIS CRS Registration?
A quick, plain-language explanation before the details.
BIS CRS registration lets you legally sell or import notified electronics and IT goods in India: you get your product tested at a BIS-recognised lab, self-declare conformity, and BIS issues a registration number (R-number) that goes on the product with the Standard Mark.
The Compulsory Registration Scheme is Scheme-II of Schedule-II to the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018, framed under the BIS Act, 2016. Products are brought under CRS by Compulsory Registration Orders issued on the recommendation of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), making registration mandatory for those goods.
Administered by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), the National Standards Body of India, through its dedicated CRS portal at crsbis.in. Testing is carried out only at BIS-recognised laboratories.
A CRS registration is valid for 2 years and can be renewed before expiry. On grant, BIS issues a unique registration number (R-number); the product must then carry the Standard Mark with the R-number.
Quick Facts
Who Must Register?
CRS registration is required product-by-product for any electronic or IT item notified under a Compulsory Registration Order. Both Indian manufacturers and foreign manufacturers (through their setup) can register.
| Who / What | Registration position |
|---|---|
| Indian manufacturer of a notified product | Mandatory before selling in India |
| Foreign / overseas manufacturer of a notified product | Mandatory — registers per manufacturing location |
| Importer of a notified product | Product must already hold a valid CRS registration |
| Each distinct model / brand / manufacturing unit | Separate registration generally required |
| Non-notified electronic product | Not covered by CRS (voluntary certification may apply) |
Registration is per manufacturer + product
CRS registration is granted to a manufacturer for a specific product/model at a specific factory. A separate application is generally needed for each additional model, series or manufacturing location.
Foreign manufacturers register directly
Unlike ISI/FMCS, a foreign manufacturer of a notified product obtains the CRS registration in its own name for its overseas factory — coordinated with an Authorised Indian Representative where required.
No sale without the Standard Mark
A notified product cannot be manufactured, imported, sold, hired, leased or stored for sale unless it is registered and bears the Standard Mark with the R-number.
MeitY drives the notified list
The list of products under CRS is expanded from time to time by notification (on MeitY recommendation). Check whether your product has been notified and its date of enforcement.

Talk to an Expert →Why Is BIS CRS Registration Required?
For a notified electronic or IT product, CRS registration is a legal precondition to sell or import in India. Here is why it matters for manufacturers and importers.
-
01
Legally Sell Notified Goods
Once a product is notified under a Compulsory Registration Order, it cannot be manufactured, imported, sold or stored for sale in India unless it is registered under CRS. Registration is the statutory gateway to the market.
-
02
Use the Standard Mark & R-number
A valid registration lets you affix the BIS Standard Mark with your unique R-number on the product and packaging — the mark buyers, platforms and customs look for on notified electronics.
-
03
Clear Customs on Imports
Notified products must hold a valid CRS registration to be cleared for import. A registered R-number on the product supports smoother customs clearance and marketplace onboarding.
-
04
Avoid Seizure & Penalty
Selling or importing notified goods without registration, or misusing the Standard Mark, is an offence under the BIS Act — exposing the goods to seizure and the business to penalty and prosecution.
-
05
Sell on E-Commerce
Online marketplaces routinely require a valid BIS R-number before listing notified electronics and IT products. Registration keeps your listings compliant and live.
-
06
Build Buyer Confidence
A product carrying the Standard Mark demonstrates that it has been tested against the relevant Indian Standard at a BIS-recognised lab — a clear trust signal for B2B and retail buyers.

What You’ll Receive
What Documents Are Required for BIS CRS Registration?
Requirements vary by applicant type. Keep clear scans ready. The core of every CRS application is a valid test report from a BIS-recognised laboratory plus a signed self-declaration of conformity to the applicable Indian Standard.
Indian Manufacturer
Domestic factory · notified product- Business registration / incorporation proof and PAN
- GSTIN and factory address proof
- Details of the product, model(s), brand and applicable Indian Standard
- Test report from a BIS-recognised laboratory
- Signed self-declaration of conformity
- Authorisation letter for the signatory / representative
Foreign Manufacturer
Overseas factory · via AIR- Business licence / registration of the overseas manufacturer

Test report is the core document
CRS is self-declaration backed by testing. A valid report from a BIS-recognised laboratory against the applicable Indian Standard is the heart of the application — everything else supports it.
One application per model / series
Different models, series or brands generally need separate registrations. Grouping under a series is possible only where BIS rules permit — we map this correctly for you.
Foreign makers need an AIR
An overseas manufacturer typically appoints an Authorised Indian Representative resident in India for the registration and ongoing liaison with BIS.
Standard Mark artwork
Prepare the Standard Mark with the R-number artwork as per BIS labelling rules — it must appear correctly on the product and packaging after grant.
Match names across documents
The manufacturer name, factory address and product details must be consistent across the test report, self-declaration and portal application to avoid queries.
Don’t have all the documents?
We’ll identify what your case needs →How BIS CRS Registration Works (Step by Step)
The entire application happens online on the official CRS portal at crsbis.in — there is no factory inspection under CRS.
Confirm the product is notified
Verify that your product falls under a Compulsory Registration Order and identify the applicable Indian Standard (IS).
Get the product tested
Submit a sample to a BIS-recognised laboratory for testing against the relevant IS and obtain the test report.
Create an account on crsbis.in
Register the manufacturer on the CRS portal at crsbis.in and set up the applicant profile and manufacturing location.
File the application with self-declaration

BIS scrutiny & queries
BIS scrutinises the application and test report. Respond to any queries or clarifications raised on the portal.
Grant of registration (R-number)
On approval, BIS grants a unique registration number (R-number). Affix the Standard Mark with the R-number on the product and packaging.
How the BIS CRS Process Runs
| Stage | Expected Time |
|---|---|
| Sample testing at a BIS-recognised laboratory | Depends on the product & lab schedule |
| Application filing & self-declaration on crsbis.in | Once the test report is ready |
| BIS scrutiny, queries & grant of R-number | As per BIS processing |
| Registration validity | 2 years from grant, renewable |
Testing turnaround depends on the product category, the Indian Standard involved and the recognised laboratory's schedule; BIS scrutiny time depends on completeness of the application and any queries. Timelines are indicative and subject to the applicable BIS regulations and lab availability.
