BIS REGISTRATION FOR CCTV RECORDERS : IS 13252 (PART 1) :2010
INTRODUCTION
.jpg)
A CCTV Digital Video Recorder (DVR) enables users to view stored security footage either simultaneously or individually, with all video data saved onto a hard drive. In the event of a crime, the CCTV recorder serves as a vital tool in retrieving stolen items. It acts as a deterrent to unwanted intruders, maintaining surveillance over homes and offices around the clock, day and night. The DVR allows remote viewing of live or recorded video from anywhere at any time. Since 23 May 2018, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has mandated the registration of CCTV recorders under IS 13252 (Part 1):2010 as part of the Compulsory Registration Scheme. BIS issues certification upon completion of safety testing in accordance with the Indian Standard.
BASIC REQUISTE
For Indian BIS Certification, adherence to four essential pillars is imperative. Without meeting these criteria, applicants cannot proceed with the certification process. To obtain BIS Registration, applicants must satisfy the following prerequisites:
(1).jpg)
- Manufacturer: Indian BIS Licenses are exclusively granted to manufacturers, not importers or sellers. While importers can represent foreign manufacturers and submit applications to BIS, the final license is issued only to the manufacturer.
- Manufacturing Address: Accurate manufacturing address details must be provided in the documentation. If a manufacturer has multiple factory locations for a single product, separate BIS Licenses are necessary for each location.
- Product: Each distinct product necessitates its own license. However, if multiple models fall under the same product category, a single license/registration number will cover all models within that category. In essence, one license suffices for one product category with various models.
- Brand/ trademark: Every brand or trademark associated with the product requires its own BIS license.
Adhering to these requirements ensures compliance with BIS regulations, facilitating the certification process and enabling manufacturers to access the Indian market seamlessly.
BIS REGISTRATION REQUIREMENT
The procedure of BIS registration for CCTV RECORDERS – IS 13252 (PART 1):2010 is subject to variation depending on the geographic location of the manufacturing unit. Notably, the BIS registration process differs between domestic (Indian) manufacturers and foreign manufacturers.
A)PROCESS FOR FOREIGN MANUFACTURER

Guidelines for Nominating an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR)
For those seeking BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification from abroad, it's imperative to designate an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) in the absence of a local branch office in India. The AIR plays a crucial role as the on-ground liaison overseeing the certification process and handling queries. Below are the guidelines for foreign manufacturers in appointing an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR).
| Clause 1 | If the foreign manufacturer maintains a liaison office or branch office in India, it will serve as the Authorized Indian Representative (AIR). |
| Clause 2 | In the event that the foreign manufacturer lacks a liaison office or branch office in India but the proprietor or registered user of the brand/trademark featured on the product is situated in India, said owner will assume the role of AIR. |
| Clause 3 | Should the manufacturer not possess a liaison office in India and there is no proprietor or registered user of the brand/trademark on the product located in India, another entity will be designated as the AIR. |
B) PROCESS FOR DOMESTIC MANUFACTURER
| STEP:1 | Initiate the online submission process. |
| STEP:2 | Conduct sample testing at a BIS-approved laboratory. |
| STEP:3 | Submit the application, along with the sample test report, either online or offline. |
