Brian,
I occasionally do work for a very large ITE product company with a
worldwide presence and so I've been involved in international certs for
a few of their products. This year we learned that Russia started to
reject all EAC certs not issued by a Russian national lab. The other CU
nation's certs were being rejected. I believe that Belarus has been
working on legal action against Russia with the position that Russia is
violating agreements. But I had to obtain a 2nd EAC cert from a Russian
lab so that this company could resume their exports to Russia. The
big-name labs with global market access groups that I spoke with are
aware of this. This was the status as of mid-summer.
Best regards,
Carl

Greetings.
I would love to hear your story about dealing with the EAC mark and
shipping products to Russia. Though most all countries have laws,
acts, or directives on the books, most are not enforced across the
board, yet focuses primarily on mass produced consumer electronics,
computers, etc.. Individual or custom built equipment, such as
scientific/laboratory equipment generally gets in such countries
without much trouble.
However, our department has been asked to looking into the current
status of the EAC marking and what it takes to get single built
instruments into Russia. Any information on this would be helpful.
We have talked to a couple 3^rd party labs and of course they want the
entire gambit including full certification testing for Safety, EMC,
and RoHS by an accredited lab and a full certification program with
factory inspections, the works, blah blah blah. This approach is
totally out of the question for the few products that we sell into
this market. Let’s be reasonable here.
So far we haven’t had any issues (unless we include a PC in the
shipment) but if things are changing we would like to stay on top of
things.
I would love to hear from you. Thanks for all comments and stories.
The Other Brian
