Product Identification

Product Identification refers to the clear and unique identification of a product within the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). Its purpose is to ensure that products are uniquely identifiable, traceable and regulatorily verifiable, making it an essential element of EAC conformity assessment procedures.

Product Identification particularly enables:

  • unique assignment of products,
  • traceability throughout the supply chain,
  • regulatory control,
  • Market Surveillance,
  • quality control,
  • as well as assignment of technical and certification-related documentation.

Within EAC certification procedures, Product Identification typically includes:

  • serial numbers,
  • nameplates,
  • model designations,
  • batch numbers,
  • manufacturer numbers,
  • product codes,
  • as well as technical identification features.

Regulatory requirements are based on:

Depending on the product category, identification markings must be:

Product Identification is particularly important for:

  • machinery,
  • electrical equipment,
  • industrial systems,
  • pressure equipment,
  • explosion-protected products,
  • vehicles,
  • consumer goods,
  • as well as safety-critical technical systems.

Product Identification also forms the basis for:

Authorities and Certification Bodies particularly verify consistency between:

  • product markings,
  • certification documents,
  • nameplate information,
  • TN VED classification,
  • as well as Technical Documentation.

Missing or incorrect Product Identification may lead to:

Particularly for:

  • serial production products,
  • industrial systems,
  • safety-critical components,
  • explosion-protected equipment,
  • as well as complex technical systems,
    complete Product Identification is regulatorily mandatory.

Product Identification is closely connected to:

Regulatorily compliant Product Identification is essential for traceability, product safety and legally compliant distribution within the Eurasian Economic Union.

We support manufacturers, exporters and plant engineering companies in implementing regulatorily compliant Product Identification and marking requirements within the EAEU. Our services include review of technical markings, coordination with certification documents, preparation of compliant nameplates as well as support with regulatory requirements and Market Surveillance procedures. This ensures legally compliant and efficient market access throughout the Eurasian Economic Union.
