Octagona signs agreement for BIS Certification with FederlegnoArredo

Yes, the BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification is mandatory for all products intended to enter the Indian market. It is an essential requirement for export to India and, without adequate support, the process can be complex for businesses, especially regarding compliance, documentation, and inspections.

The agreement provides dedicated support for companies affiliated with FederlegnoArredo to obtain the BIS Certification. Octagona, a consulting firm for internationalization, offers technical advice on compliance with Indian standards and assistance in the management of inspections and documentation. The agreement is included in the federation’s Convention Catalogue and provides advantageous conditions for companies.

Octagona accompanies companies throughout the certification process of the BIS. This begins with an initial analysis of the products’ compliance with Indian standards, then moves on to technical advice, documentation preparation, and the management of bureaucratic procedures. The assistance also includes the necessary inspections to obtain certification and be able to sell in India.

Companies affiliated with FederlegnoArredo, the federation that represents the wood, cork, furniture, lighting and decor industries, can access the program. The agreement is included in the federation’s Convention Catalog and allows these companies to obtain the BIS Certification, which is required to export to India on favorable terms.

Because the BIS Certification, mandatory for entering the Indian market, is a process that can be complex without the right support. A consultant like Octagona verifies the technical compliance of products to Indian standards, follows up on documentation and inspections, and manages bureaucratic procedures, guiding the company from the initial analysis to the certification issuance.
