Step 7: Apply EAC marking

✅ Only after successful FGIS registration, affix EAC mark (minimum height 5 mm, permanent marking).

For DoC products: no requirement to print notified body number next to EAC logo.

Step 8: Archive technical dossier

The AR must keep the full technical dossier for at least 10 years after DoC expiry or last batch release, available for EAEU market surveillance inspectors.

3. Validity

• Serial DoC (1D /3D): up to 5 years

• Batch DoC (2D /4D): only valid for the specified shipment batch, no multi-batch reuse

• 
  

4. Timeline

• Scheme 3D /4D: 2–4 weeks (testing + document registration)

• Scheme 1D /2D: 1–2 weeks (if test data already ready)

• 
  

5. Key risks & common mistakes

1. ❌ Wrong TR CU selection or mixing CoC/DoC (if regulation requires CoC, DoC is invalid)

2. ❌ No EAEU AR (non-EU manufacturer cannot register DoC by themselves)

3. ❌ Using non-accredited lab reports for 3D/4D schemes

4. ❌ Marking EAC before FGIS registration (customs detention, fines, marketplace removal)

5. ❌ Forgetting multiple overlapping TR CU (e.g. LVD + EMC + RoHS for electronics)

6. ❌ Changing product design/materials and continuing to use old DoC (must re-declare)

7. ❌ Poor Russian translation of passport / manual

6. What DoC does NOT include

• No factory audit, no annual surveillance

• Does not replace separate permits: SGR state registration, fire certificate, medical RZN registration

• Only covers models, TN VED and TR CU listed in the declaration

Quick summary

DoC is self-declaration by the EAEU Authorised Representative. Process: classify product → appoint AR → build technical dossier + complete required testing → AR signs DoC → register into FGIS → mark EAC. No factory audit, faster and cheaper than CoC, but AR carries full liability.
