Frequently Asked Questions

Which certifications does Global Approbation handle?

We handle Indian regulatory approvals — BIS CRS, BIS ISI (including FMCS for foreign manufacturers), WPC ETA, BEE star labelling, TEC/MTCTE, EPR registration for e-waste, plastic, battery, tyre and used oil, Legal Metrology (LMPC), PESO, CDSCO, STQC, DGFT and AEO — plus international certifications such as CE, FCC and UL through our Global Market Access service.

Where is Global Approbation located?

Our head office is at D2, 3rd Floor, D-Block Market, LSC, Vivek Vihar Phase-1, New Delhi 110095. We have been helping manufacturers, importers and brand owners since 1997, with 10 offices worldwide.

How long does BIS certification take?

For the BIS ISI mark (Scheme I), the end-to-end timeline is typically 3–5 months, covering document preparation, product testing, the factory audit and BIS review. For BIS CRS (Scheme II), product testing alone takes about 2–8 weeks depending on the product, followed by BIS portal review. Exact timelines depend on the product and how complete the documentation is.

How long do WPC ETA and TEC MTCTE approvals take?

WPC ETA approval typically takes 8–16 weeks end to end, covering RF testing, documentation and WPC processing. TEC MTCTE certification also typically takes 8–16 weeks, depending on the product category, the test lab queue and the completeness of documentation.

How long does EPR registration take?

EPR registration for e-waste on the CPCB portal typically takes 4–8 weeks from submission of complete documents. Plastic, battery and tyre EPR registrations are also filed on CPCB's EPR portals, and timelines depend on CPCB review.

Can foreign manufacturers get Indian certification through you?

Yes. Foreign manufacturers apply for the ISI mark under BIS's Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS) and must appoint an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR). We manage the application, testing, factory audit coordination and AIR requirements end to end.

What is the difference between testing and certification?

Testing checks a product sample against a standard in an accredited lab and produces a test report. Certification is the regulator's approval — such as a BIS licence or registration — granted on the basis of those test reports, documentation and, where required, a factory audit.
