REQUIRED PERMISSIVE DOCUMENTS
Different types of products can be imported into the EAEU under either a declaration of conformity, certificate of conformity or certificate of state registration. The documents may be issued for a batch (one-time import) or a series (regular import). We will analyse your products and determine which type of documentation is required to ensure trouble-free importation.
TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION LOCALISATION
The technical documentation that is sent to the laboratory with samples to be tested differs depending on the type of goods being imported. As documentation is to be submitted in the local language (usually Russian) we will prepare the correct technical documentation in the appropriate language and organise the delivery of samples for testing in Russia in the quantities specified by the certification body.
DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY REGISTRATION
From January 2021, the procedure for registering a declaration of conformity has changed in the EAEU. The application is submitted electronically and must be signed with an electronic signature. In the event of any errors, such as the incorrect position of the signatory, the permit will be invalidated. We will ensure that the documents are correct and provide our own electronic signature for the application.
INDEPENDENCE FROM DISTRIBUTORS
Only a resident of the country in which the permit is obtained can act as the holder of permits for goods imported into the EAEU. A producer may authorise several partners to obtain documents for its goods. We will act as a document holder to ensure that your products can enter the EAEU freely, regardless of how your relationship with distribution partners develops. We will assume the risks associated with any potential consumer complaints.
TESTING
To obtain permission to import a product, it must pass certification tests in a laboratory that is authorized to carry out tests on that specific product. These labs are working under license, and if the license is withdrawn, permit documentation issued by the lab becomes invalid. The labs only work with special certification organisations, not directly with importers. We will help to choose the appropriate certification organization and a test lab that will be authorized to run tests on the product(s) you plan to import.
GOODS LABELLING
In order to be sold within the EAEU, goods must be labelled. There are legal requirements specifying label design and contents, i.e. they must be labelled correctly (EAC). The product cannot be sold in the EAEU without the correct labelling. We can advise on labelling and calculate how long it will take from receiving permissive documents for import and shipment of a commercial batch to getting the necessary labelling in place.
