Certification in Kazakhstan and the EAEU: practical overview for equipment suppliers
EAEU Certification and Compliance Requirements
The Eurasian Customs Union came into existence on 1 January 2010, creating a single customs territory with unified customs legislation and duties.
As a further development, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) came into force on 1 January 2015, establishing a common regulatory framework across its member states.
Certification requirements in EAEU countries
Certification requirements in EAEU countries are based on the applicable Technical Regulations and the scope of supply.
Depending on the type of equipment, the conformity assessment route may include certification, declaration, marking, technical documentation, and supporting product records.
For suppliers, it is important to confirm the applicable route at an early stage, taking into account the product scope, intended use, product classification, and the terms of delivery.
Certification requirements in EAEU countries
The Eurasian Customs Union came into existence on 1 January 2010, creating a single customs territory with unified customs legislation and duties.
As a further development, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) came into force on 1 January 2015, establishing a common regulatory framework across its member states.
Suppliers should confirm the likely conformity assessment route, technical passport requirements, and project documentation scope before submitting quotations or planning shipment.
Technical Regulations of the Customs Union (TR CU) were introduced as the unified framework for product safety requirements across the EAEU. These regulations define the conformity assessment requirements for different types of equipment supplied to this market.
Each type of equipment is subject to specific technical regulations and applicable standards adopted at EAEU level. The TR CU and TR EAEU technical regulations have replaced the former national certification system for the relevant product categories.
For equipment supplied to the EAEU, the applicable conformity assessment route and marking requirements depend on the product scope, the relevant technical regulations, product classification, including HS code where relevant, and the terms of delivery, for example:
standalone equipment or package unit
direct OEM supply or contractor / package-vendor supply
complete skid or loose components
finished equipment or parts / subassemblies
import for use or import as part of a larger system
