How to get an EAC certificate and why it is needed. First of all, by EAC certificate we mean the Eurasian conformity certificate. The Eurasian Union has unified technical regulations for various types of products. Compulsory confirmation of compliance with safety requirements in the form of a mandatory certification or declaration is issued for the products included in their scope.
The EAC certificate is issued by an accredited certification center that also operates in Armenia. In order to receive a certificate, it is necessary to provide relevant documents about the product. Before receiving a certificate, the certification center will definitely ask you for which product you need a certificate, because the submission of certain documents depends on the type of product. In general, you will need to submit an application, applicant information, product specification, certain component documents related to the product and a product sample. A sample is required for certification testing. After the laboratory tests, a protocol is issued, on the basis of which the certificate is issued.
The validity period of the certificate can be from one to five years, depending on how the document will be formulated. It should be noted that most certification schemes include a mandatory annual inspection condition. In other words, after 12 months from the day of receiving the certificate, it is necessary to go through the inspection control procedure.
Only a company registered in one of the member countries of the Customs Union has the right to receive an EAC certificate.
Many people have probably noticed that on the packaging of products, such as food, there is such an abbreviation: EAC. This mark of conformity is applied to the packaging of products for a reason. First of all, this is the requirement of the current legislation, that is, the technical regulations. All products that have passed the certification procedure in accordance with the regulations of the Eurasian Economic Union must be marked with the EAC mark, which informs the buyer that the product has passed all the necessary tests and the mandatory conformity confirmation procedure.
This certificate can be issued for many products. For example: meat, eggs, fish, grains, fruits, vegetables, alcoholic beverages, juices, cosmetics, tobacco, etc.
