State registration

State registration is a procedure applied for goods introduced for the first time or produced for the first time on the territory of the Eurasian Customs Union, which may pose a potential danger to human life in one way or another (e.g., household chemical products, personal hygiene items, dietary supplements, food products for children, children’s cosmetics, products for childcare).

A certificate of state registration of products (SGR) is received as the result of undergoing the state registration. It is an official document of the EACU, confirming the compliance of goods with all the sanitary and hygienic and epidemiological standards. SGR is issued for the products included in the Single List of Goods, subject to sanitary-and-epidemiologic supervision (control) on the customs border and customs area of the Customs union, and in the technical regulations of the Eurasian Economic Union.

Two categories of applicants can receive SGR:

• Manufacturer.
• Importer.

To register a product, the documents of a foreign manufacturer must be translated into Belarusian (Russian) and certified in accordance with the legislation of the EACU state-member, on the territory of which the registration is carried out.

It should be noted that SGR is valid on the territory of absolutely all the EACU countries and is an unlimited document.

The process of undergoing the state registration of products

After submitting a complete package of documents, products undergo an examination, on the basis of which the assessment of goods is given. Next the documentation, submitted by the applicant, is reviewed for compliance with the requirements of sanitary and epidemiological rules and norms.

If the documents are approved, information about the products is entered into the State Register, and the goods are recognized as safe for humans and are allowed for sale on the territory of the Eurasian Customs Union. An issued certificate of state registration confirms this approval.
