Getting Started for Silver Jewellers

Register for voluntary silver hallmarking under IS 2112:2025, get HUID for silver articles, and stay ahead of mandatory requirements.

Why it matters

Silver hallmarking with HUID is currently voluntary but is widely expected to become mandatory — getting started now gives you a competitive advantage.

The revised IS 2112:2025 standard establishes seven purity grades for silver (from 800 to 999), bringing structure to a previously unregulated market.

Hallmarked silver articles command higher consumer confidence and better resale value compared to un-hallmarked alternatives.

What you need before you start

BIS registration as a silver jeweller or manufacturer on manakonline.in

Silver articles in declared purity grades as per IS 2112:2025 (800, 835, 900, 925, 950, 970, or 999)

Invoice and documentation for the articles being submitted

Access to an AHC equipped for silver hallmarking with HUID capability

Step-by-step process

1

Register for silver hallmarking

If you are already BIS-registered for gold, you can add silver hallmarking to your existing registration. New applicants should register on manakonline.in and specify silver jewellery.

2

Submit silver articles to an AHC

Bring your silver articles to a BIS-recognized centre equipped for silver testing. Articles are tested using XRF spectrometry to determine silver content and alloy composition.

3

Receive HUID for silver articles

Articles meeting the declared purity grade under IS 2112:2025 are assigned a HUID and stamped with the hallmark — BIS logo, silver purity grade, and HUID.

4

Market your hallmarked silver

Use hallmarking as a differentiator in your marketing. Educate customers that HUID-hallmarked silver is purity-verified and traceable — a strong selling point against unverified silver jewellery.
