FAQ
HSN 3901 and BIS Certification
Short answers about this HSN code.
Is BIS certification mandatory for goods imported under HSN 3901?
Yes. Under relevant Quality Control Orders notified by the Government of India, items classified under HSN 3901 cannot be custom-cleared without a valid BIS Licence or CRS Registration Number and the official Standard Mark.
Which certification scheme applies to HSN 3901?
Products under HSN 3901 typically fall under the ISI scheme. For Scheme-I (ISI Mark), factory inspection and independent product sample testing are required. For Scheme-II (CRS), testing in a BIS-recognized laboratory followed by self-declaration is required.
What are the key testing requirements for HSN 3901?
Products must undergo complete type testing in an accredited testing laboratory per IS 7328, IS 2508. Testing verifies mechanical strength, electrical safety, chemical composition, and durability as mandated in the specific Indian Standard.
