EAC CERTIFICATE

EAC Certificate (Eurasian Conformity Certificate)

The EAC Certificate is an official document that certifies a product’s compliance with the technical regulations and quality standards of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). The abbreviation EAC stands for "Eurasian Conformity". Similar to the CE marking in the European Union, the EAC Certificate allows products to be legally sold and distributed within the EAEU market.

Where Is the EAC Certificate Valid?

The EAC Certificate is required for products sold in the following EAEU member states:

• Russia

• Kazakhstan

• Belarus

• Kyrgyzstan

• Armenia
  
  

Regardless of whether a product is manufactured within the EAEU or imported from another country, it must comply with EAEU Technical Regulations (TR CU) to be legally placed on the market.

Which Products Require EAC Certification?

EAC certification is mandatory for products subject to EAEU Technical Regulations (TR CU), including:

✔ Electrical and electronic products
✔ Machinery and industrial equipment
✔ Food products
✔ Cosmetics and hygiene products
✔ Construction materials
✔ Children’s products and toys
✔ Chemical substances

Types of EAC Certification

There are two main types of EAC certification, depending on the risk level and regulatory requirements of the product:

1. EAC Certificate of Conformity (TR CU Certificate)

✔ Required for high-risk products (e.g., electrical devices).
✔ Products undergo strict testing and inspection by accredited certification bodies.
✔ Certification is issued based on laboratory tests and audits.

2. EAC Declaration of Conformity (TR CU Declaration)

✔ Required for lower-risk products.
✔ The manufacturer or importer is responsible for conducting compliance tests.
✔ The declaration is based on self-assessment or third-party testing.

EAC Certification Process

Obtaining an EAC Certificate involves several key steps to ensure compliance with Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) Technical Regulations (TR CU):

✔ Product Analysis: Determining whether the product is subject to EAEU technical regulations.

✔ EAC Marking: Once certified, the product must bear the EAC mark on its packaging, label, or accompanying documents.

What Does the EAC Mark Look Like?

The EAC mark consists of black letters forming the abbreviation "EAC". It is typically displayed on the product packaging, labeling, or technical documentation. This marking confirms that the product meets all applicable technical and safety standards required for sale in the EAEU market.

Why Is EAC Certification Important?

✔ Regulatory Compliance: Mandatory for importing and selling products in EAEU countries.
✔ Consumer Trust: Demonstrates that products meet high quality and safety standards.
