CERTIFICATES OF THE CUSTOMS UNION: CONFIRMATION OF CONFORMITY OF PRODUCTS TO GOST OR TECHNICAL REGULATIONS

The main purpose for the introduction of certification of the Customs Union is to ensure the conformity of goods to both state standards (GOST) and the technical regulations, the following of which have already been adopted by all Customs Union partners:

• Regulations that guarantee the safety of packaging of certain goods, as well as a variety of products for children and adolescents;

• Technical regulations on the safety of production equipment and machines and devices used in production where there is a risk of fire or explosion, as well as apparatuses operating on gas fuel;

• Technical regulations on the safety of food products – grain, oil and fat products, flavors, stabilizers and other chemical food additives;

• Regulations on the safety of chemical products, cosmetics and perfumes.

All of the above technical regulations entered into force on March 15, 2015. Before this date, the were transitional provisions that allowed trade without a certificate of compliance for the Customs Union, and the use of national standards and regulatory documents. Today it is not possible – every participant of the CU market is required to pass the certification procedure if the goods produced or sold by it are found on the corresponding list.

WHO SHOULD CARRY OUT THE REGISTRATION OF THE CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY OF THE CUSTOMS UNION?

The certificate of conformity for the Customs Union is necessary, first of all, for producers of various products. For this reason, a trading company or a manufacturing company needs to perform a few simple steps:

• Check whether the product being sold is included in the Unified List of goods subject to certification;

• Pass the procedure for issuing a document confirming compliance with GOST or technical regulations;

• Get a certificate that gives a number of benefits – Including preferential terms for its transportation and distribution within the countries of the Customs Union.

HOW TO GET THE CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY OF THE CUSTOMS UNION?

The procedure for issuing the certificate can be carried out according to the following schemes:

• Depending on how many products a manufacturer imports into a particular country of the Customs Union, the document can be obtained both for serially produced products and for each lot separately;

• During the process of certificate registration, certain groups of goods are subject to mandatory testing in specially accredited organizations;

• An application for registration of a certificate can be issued not only by the manufacturer of the product, but also by its seller, who will sell the goods in his country, which is part of the Customs Union.
