Based on the search results, the choice between EAC Certificate (CoC) or EAC Declaration (DoC) under TR CU 007/2011 (also known as TR TS 007/2011) depends on product risk level, applicant eligibility, and specific product type. Here's a structured analysis:
⚖️ 1. Core Selection Criteria
Factor    EAC Certificate (CoC)    EAC Declaration (DoC)
Applicability    Mandatory for high-risk children's products
- Childcare articles (e.g., pacifiers, feeding bottles)
- Hygiene products (e.g., diapers, sanitary pads)    For lower-risk children's goods
- Clothing, footwear (e.g., sports shoes, ethnic shoes)
- Occasional-use products (labeled "≤4h continuous use, ≤2x/week")
Applicant Requirements    Open to foreign manufacturers; issued by EAEU-accredited bodies    Only EAEU-registered entities (local importer/distributor)
Validity Period    Up to 5 years (requires annual surveillance audits)    Up to 5 years (no audits, self-declaration)
⚙️ 2. Product-Specific Requirements
Requiring EAC Certificate (CoC):
Childcare items: Pacifiers, feeding bottles, teething toys.
Hygiene products: Diapers, sanitary pads, rubber hygiene articles (e.g., ice bags, heating pads).
High-contact items: Products with prolonged skin contact or ingestion risk.
Requiring EAC Declaration (DoC):
Apparel and footwear: Sports shoes, ethnic footwear, corrective shoes.
Occasional-use products: Items labeled for limited use duration/frequency.
Low-risk accessories: Non-ingestible toys, decorative items.
📋 3. Certification Procedures
For EAC Certificate (CoC):
Steps:
1.Lab testing in EAEU-accredited labs (e.g., chemical migration, mechanical safety).
2.Mandatory factory audit (QMS review, production control).
3.Annual surveillance audits.
Schemes: 1C (batch production), 3C (single shipment).
For EAC Declaration (DoC):
Steps:
1.Compile technical file (self-prepared test reports, user manuals in Russian).
2.No factory audit (unless Scheme 6D with ISO 9001).
3.Register declaration in EAEU database via accredited body.
⚠️ 4. Key Compliance Requirements
Labeling:
All products require EAC marking (min. 5 mm height).
Occasional-use products must display usage restrictions.
Documentation:
Technical passports, safety justifications in Russian/EAEU languages.
Material compliance certificates (e.g., GOST standards for chemicals).
Testing:
CoC requires full lab tests (e.g., toxicity, flammability).
DoC may reuse existing IEC/EN reports (translated).
💎 Summary
Opt for EAC Certificate (CoC) if:
Producing high-risk items (e.g., pacifiers, diapers).
Foreign manufacturers needing direct certification.
Choose EAC Declaration (DoC) if:
Manufacturing lower-risk goods (e.g., clothing, limited-use accessories).
An EAEU-based legal entity acts as applicant.
Critical Note: Product classification under TR CU 007/2011 depends on usage duration, contact type, and age group. Consult accredited bodies (e.g., 上海经合工业) for exact categorization.
✅ Action Tip: For footwear/textiles, leverage DoC’s streamlined process (1–3 weeks); for childcare articles, budget 2–5 months for CoC due to audits.
