BIS certification for vacuum cleaners and water suction cleaning appliances is now mandatory in India under the Quality Control Order issued on 6 April 2026, governed by IS 302 (Part 1) of the Bureau of Indian Standards. Any manufacturer or importer looking to sell these appliances in the Indian market must obtain the ISI mark under BIS Scheme-I — without it, products cannot legally be sold, and non-compliance risks heavy penalties, seizure, and market bans.
Whether you produce household vacuum cleaners, wet & dry models, or commercial water suction appliances, this guide covers everything you need — documents, testing requirements, timelines, and costs — to get your BIS certification smoothly.
