(also: Certification Procedure<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Conformity assessment<\/a> is the official procedure used to verify that a product complies with the Technical Regulations of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU<\/a>). It forms the regulatory basis for EAC<\/a> certification and EAC declaration<\/a> procedures and is required for the lawful import and placement of products on the EAEU<\/a> market. Without a successfully completed conformity assessment<\/a>, market access to Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan is generally not possible.<\/p>\n

The legal requirements are defined by the Technical Regulations of the EAEU<\/a> (TR EAEU<\/a> \/ TR CU). Each Technical Regulation specifies which conformity assessment<\/a> procedures apply to specific product categories. Depending on product type, risk level, intended use and supply model, different certification or declaration schemes may be required.<\/p>\n

Conformity assessment<\/a> procedures may include technical documentation<\/a> reviews, laboratory testing, hazard and risk analyses, safety evaluations, factory audits and inspection controls during the validity period of the certificate. The scope of assessment mainly depends on the risk potential of the product.<\/p>\n

For lower-risk products, conformity assessment<\/a> is often performed through an EAC declaration<\/a> procedure, where the applicant<\/a> assumes responsibility for product compliance<\/a>. For safety-critical products, EAC<\/a> certification by an accredited certification body<\/a> is typically required. Particularly complex assessment procedures apply to machinery, pressure equipment, explosion-protected products and industrial electrical systems.<\/p>\n

A central element of conformity assessment<\/a> is product classification<\/a>. This determines which Technical Regulations apply to the product and which conformity assessment<\/a> procedure is required. Incorrect product classification<\/a> is one of the most common causes of delays and additional costs in certification projects.<\/p>\n

The results of conformity assessment<\/a> are documented in official conformity documents, particularly EAC<\/a> certificates or registered EAC<\/a> declarations. Only after successful completion of the procedure may the EAC marking<\/a> be applied and the product legally marketed within the EAEU<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We support manufacturers and exporters throughout the complete conformity assessment<\/a> process for the EAEU<\/a> market. Our services include product classification<\/a>, selection of the correct assessment scheme, preparation of technical documentation<\/a>, coordination of accredited testing and management of certification and declaration procedures. This ensures legally compliant and reliable market access throughout the Eurasian Economic Union.<\/p>\n
