TR CU Certification services
TR CU (EAC) certification – this abbreviation stands for the technical regulation of the Customs Union and means the receipt of a document in the system of mandatory quality assessment of the Eurasian Economic Union, which confirms that the products specified in it fully meet the requirements of technical regulations.
Now the Customs Union includes Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan. To obtain Customs Union TR CU (EAC) Certifications – permission to sell products on their territory, you need to issue certificates of conformity.
TR CU certification of the customs union informs about the quality of goods and performs a licensing function. If the technical regulation provides for a Certification TRCU, then the lack of a document of conformity (TR CU EAC) makes it impossible to legally conduct commercial activities. For example, for the sale of pressure equipment, a TR CU 032/2013 Pressure Equipment Safety is required.
