The Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS) is a program under Scheme I of the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018, designed to certify overseas manufacturers. It enables them to export products to India bearing the ISI mark, signifying compliance with Indian Standards. FMCS certification is mandatory for specific product categories, including electrical appliances, auto parts, cement, steel, toys, and industrial machinery components. The core objective is to ensure that imported products meet Indian quality and safety norms, protecting consumers from substandard goods and enhancing confidence in certified imports.
