BIS CERTIFICATION FOR TOYS
BIS Certification for Toys in India: Everything You Need to Know
Ensuring children’s safety is of utmost importance. To regulate the quality of toys and safeguard children under 14, the Government of India has made it mandatory for all toy manufacturers, importers and exporters to obtain a BIS certification.
The Toys (Quality Control) Order 2020, issued by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), enforces this mandate. Toys must bear the ISI mark, whether produced domestically or imported. Non-compliance can lead to heavy fines, product bans, or imprisonment.
Why is BIS Certification Mandatory for Toys?
The aim is to eliminate low-quality toys from the market and ensure the safety of children. Both electric and non-electric toys must comply with Indian standards to be sold legally.
This regulation applies equally to domestic manufacturers and foreign exporters, requiring them to adhere to BIS guidelines and certification procedures.
