Unlike a direct cool refrigerator, Frost-free refrigerators undermine the problem of ice build-up,&nbsp; thanks to the automatic defrosting system.

First of all, the applicant has to avail of company registration and then proceed with product testing &amp; model approval. This is a standard licensing procedure for all products falling under a mandatory registration scheme.

The importer, trader, or manufacturer of the\nBEE-qualified products must undergo this step. During online filing, the\napplicant must upload vital documentation such as ISO 9001, Certificate of\nIncorporation (COI), Trademark, etc. Post this, the applicant must visit the\noffice of Bureau Energy to submit the hardcopy of the aforesaid dossiers along\nwith the application. The standard fees for company registration with BEE\ninclude Rs. 1 lac (for the large-scale industry) or Rs. 25,000\/- (for small\nbusinesses).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Step 2: Testing of the Applied Product(s)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step is product testing. The testing of the\napplied product will be performed by the NABL Accredited Lab\/ILAC MRA lab. The\ncertified lab will generate the test report according to BEE defined format.\nIt\u2019s worth noting that the test officials will choose the product sample from\nthe facility for testing purposes. The officials may prompt the applicant to\nfacilitate the following documents before initiating the testing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Samples with the user manual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Registered address proof of the production facility, such as a copy of a factory license reflecting the applied product(s) and scope of the manufacturer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/bis-registration\"><strong>BIS license<\/strong><\/a> copy and list of all models <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the applicant secures the lab test report, he\/she\ncan proceed to model registration, which is the next step in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Step 3: Model Registration<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Applicants seeking BEE Registration for Frost-free Refrigerator\nmust visit the BEE portal to apply for model registration.
