Short answer

Jewellers selling gold jewellery or gold artefacts in notified districts must register with BIS and sell only hallmarked items carrying the BIS logo, the purity marking and a six-digit alphanumeric HUID. The Hallmarking of Gold Jewellery and Gold Artefacts (Second Amendment) Order, 2026 (S.O. 2117(E), 28 April 2026) is reported to list 385 districts. BIS registration is reported to be online, without a document upload or fee, and valid while you comply. Hallmarking is done only at BIS-recognised Assaying and Hallmarking Centres.

Last updated 4 November 2026. Rules, fees and forms change, so confirm the current position on the official portal before you act.

COMMON MISTAKES

Avoid preventable delays, rework and scope gaps.

These issues commonly surface after a commercial commitment, deadline or authority query has already created time pressure.

Starting without an applicability check

This can select the wrong form, authority or document route.

Using inconsistent source data

Conflicts create queries and correction work.

RISK CONTROL

Small input errors can create larger commercial or compliance consequences.

Review the requirement early, disclose accurate facts and retain a complete approval and completion trail.

Delay exposureLate action may narrow options or add cost.
Rejection or queryIncomplete or inconsistent records can trigger follow-up.

What the 2026 order changes

The order replaces the district annexure to the 2020 order with a consolidated list of 385 districts, according to the BIS document as reported. It covers gold jewellery and gold artefacts, not silver. Check whether your shop's district is on the list, because the duty to sell only hallmarked items applies there.

What a registered jeweller must do

Apply on the BIS portal for jeweller registration and display the certificate at the outlet.
Send items for hallmarking only to BIS-recognised Assaying and Hallmarking Centres.
Sell only items marked with the BIS logo, the purity or fineness mark and the HUID, as applicable.
Use the permitted caratages listed by BIS under IS 1417:2016, and keep records of HUID items bought and sold.
Check exemption categories in the main order and amendments before relying on any exemption.

Enforcement and risk

The amendment is not reported to add a new penalty amount, but BIS can inspect shops, draw samples and investigate complaints. Selling unhallmarked items in a notified district, or using a wrong HUID, puts the licence and the stock at risk.

Typical path

1
Day 1
Check your district against the latest order and list.
2
Days 1 to 3
Prepare the application and shop details; apply on the BIS portal.
3
After registration
Display the certificate; arrange a hallmarking centre for each lot.
4
Each sale
Check the BIS logo, purity mark and HUID, and record them.

Common mistakes to avoid

Assuming the district list is the same as in earlier years.
Using a non-recognised centre for hallmarking.
Selling items with a missing or unreadable HUID.
Not displaying the registration certificate at the outlet.
