    What is the Thai Industrial Standard (TIS) Mark and Why is it Important?

    JUL 17, 2025

    Most consumers do not always consider product standards when purchasing goods, as they often assume that products with the TIS mark meet the necessary standards. In reality, however, some products may not clearly display the TIS mark, which is crucial for safety. If a product does not meet the required standards, it can pose a danger. CPLINTER aims to help you understand what the TIS mark is, its importance, and its benefits. Let’s take a look!

    What is the TIS Mark?

    The TIS mark stands for the Thai Industrial Standard. It refers to a set of technical requirements established by the Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI). These standards serve as a guideline for manufacturers to produce goods with the highest quality suitable for use. Currently, there are more than 2,000 TIS standards covering everyday products such as food, electrical appliances, vehicles, textiles, and construction materials. The TIS mark includes the following elements:

    1. The TIS logo
    2. The TIS number assigned to the product
    3. The year the TIS number was issued

    Why is the TIS Mark Important?

    The TIS mark is important and beneficial to manufacturers, consumers, and the economy for several reasons: Benefits for Manufacturers

    • It helps increase production efficiency.
    • It ensures consistent product quality.
    • It reduces unnecessary steps in the production process.
    • Products meet quality standards, and costs may decrease, allowing for lower prices.
    • It opens up more business opportunities, especially with government contracts that require TIS-certified products.

    Benefits for Consumers

    • It serves as a reliable option when choosing to buy products that meet established standards and quality.
    • It provides safety for use.
    • If the product breaks down, finding replacement parts is easier because products with TIS standards are interchangeable.

    Benefits for the Economy

    • It helps create common trade standards, leading to mutual understanding between producers and consumers.
    • It ensures fair trade practices.
    • It saves resources by promoting their optimal use.
    • It fosters healthy competition for Thai businesses.
    • It prevents low-quality products from being sold in the country.
    • It strengthens industries and the national economy.
