Russian EAC certificate (EurAsian Conformity certificate)
is a certificate of compliance, required for the import of technical equipment into the customs territory and the release of low-voltage equipment and electronic equipment into circulation on the domestic market. The
Russian EurAsian Conformity certificate required for electrical equipment includes equipment for the generation, transformation, transmission, distribution and utilization of electrical energy, including for direct use, and equipment built into machines, network equipment and other applications, for example:
- Personal computers, notebooks & tablets;
- Printers & copiers.
It is also required to make out the
Russian EAC certificate for radio electronic technical equipment, including any electro-technical, electronic and radio electronic equipment, and also products containing electrical or electronic components, for example:
- Satellite stations;
- Wireless measurement & signaling systems;
- Relay & base stations;
- Radio frequency identification (RFID) & security devices;
- Wireless microphones.
In some cases the
EAC certificate does not have to be made out. The
technical regulations of the Customs Union TR CU 004/2011 Safety of low-voltage equipment do not demand that the
EAC certificate be made out on:
- electrical equipment intended for operation in an explosive environment;
- medical products;
- electrical equipment for elevators;
- military electrical equipment;
- control devices for pasture fences;
- electrical equipment intended for use on air/water/land/underground transport;
- electrical equipment for reactor safety systems of nuclear power plants.
According to the
technical regulations of the Customs Union TR CU 020/2011 Electromagnetic compatibility the
Russian EAC certificate is also not required on:
Document title: | Russian EAC certificate |
Maximum validity: | 5 years |
Document is required for: | customs clearance, realization, operation |

The provisions of international agreements take precedence over the relevant Russian laws and regulations do not supersede national legislation in this area. Therefore, the
Russian EAC certificate is usually not the only necessary permit. According to international or national legislation, the
Russian CCC certificate, the
Russian RFC certificate, the
Russian FSS notification or a
Russian EAC license can be demanded in addition.
