Batch scheme (3C) and single unit (4C): skip factory audit

Step 7: Document review, draft certificate approval

Step 8: Issue CoC and register into FGIS

• CoC printed on official security numbered paper, signed and sealed by notified body

• Registration in FGIS unified EAEU state database — only after FGIS entry, the certificate becomes legally valid for customs clearance and sales.

Step 9: Affix EAC marking

Step 10: Post-certification surveillance (Scheme 1C only)

During certificate validity:

• Annual surveillance audit and periodic sample retesting

• Failure to pass surveillance → certificate suspension or revocation

• Any change of product design, materials, components or factory location requires re-assessment / new certification

3. Timeline overview

• Scheme 3C (batch CoC): 3–6 weeks (sample test + document review, no factory audit)

• Scheme 1C (serial CoC): 1.5–3 months (sample testing + factory audit + FGIS registration)

4. Key pitfalls

1. Selecting a scheme not permitted by your TR CU

2. Using non-accredited labs / notified bodies

3. Missing Russian product passport or manual

4. Applying EAC marking before FGIS registration

5. Multi-regulation products: forgetting to include all applicable TR CU on the certificate

6. Scheme 1C holders ignoring annual surveillance (common reason for certificate withdrawal)

Quick summary

CUTR/ TR CU CoC uses schemes 1C (serial with audit), 3C (batch),4C (single unit). The process includes classification, appointing EAEU AR, dossier preparation, lab testing, optional factory audit, FGIS registration and post-cert surveillance for serial certificates. Once registered, goods can clear customs and carry EAC mark across all five EAEU member states.
