Compliance steps

1
Source only from a Bureau of Indian Standards CM/L-licensed manufacturer holding a current licence against IS 15041:2001 for flat woven webbing slings of man-made fibres. Verify the supplier's CM/L number, licensed product scope, and manufacturing facility on the BIS online register before placing the purchase order.
Indutech QCO 2024 · S.O. 4326(E) dated 03-10-2024 · IS 15041:2001 · Scheme-I of Schedule-II to the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018
2
Ensure every sling bears the ISI mark and the supplier's CM/L number in accordance with Scheme-I of Schedule-II to the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018. The ISI mark must appear on the product itself; marking on packaging alone does not satisfy the requirement.

3
Accompany the consignment with a Pre-Shipment Inspection Certificate from an accredited laboratory certifying textile composition and the absence of prohibited hazardous azo dyes, plus a certificate of origin. Imports from the EU, Serbia, Poland, Denmark, Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, and the United Kingdom are exempt from azo dye testing.

4
Quote the supplier's BIS CM/L number on the bill of entry, supported by the PSIC and certificate of origin. Customs verifies the CM/L against the BIS register in real time; an absent, expired, or scope-mismatched CM/L triggers consignment detention.

5
Note that the small and micro enterprise carve-out under S.O. 4326(E) applies to domestic production only, not to imports. Foreign suppliers must hold a valid CM/L regardless of their enterprise size, and no import exemption on grounds of MSME status exists under the QCO.

A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is assuming the small and micro enterprise phase-in period extends to import consignments. The deferred effective date of 01 July 2025 for small and micro enterprises under S.O. 4326(E) applies exclusively to domestic producers; for all imports, the operative enforcement date is 01 April 2025 without exception. An importer who delays CM/L verification on the basis of the SME carve-out will find the consignment detained from the first day of enforcement.

Frequently asked

Does HSN 6307 90 19 require BIS certification?

Yes. Flat woven webbing slings of man-made fibres require Bureau of Indian Standards CM/L licensing against IS 15041:2001 under the ISI Mark Scheme with effect from 01 April 2025, by virtue of the Indutech QCO 2024 notified as S.O. 4326(E).

Does the small and micro enterprise deferral apply to imports?

No. The deferred date of 01 July 2025 applies only to domestic small and micro enterprises as defined under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006. All import consignments must comply from 01 April 2025.

Is a Pre-Shipment Inspection Certificate required in addition to BIS compliance?

Yes. The DGFT textile-import policy requires a PSIC from an accredited laboratory certifying composition and absence of prohibited azo dyes, plus a certificate of origin. This obligation is independent of the BIS QCO under the Indutech QCO 2024.

Does a single CM/L licence cover all sling variants and manufacturing facilities?

No. A CM/L licence is specific to the product scope, breaking load and width specification, and the licensed manufacturing facility; sling variants outside the licensed scope or from an unlicensed plant are not covered.
