EEU (Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan)

The EurAsian Intergovernmental Council adopted Decision No. 10 of 25 October 2019 with the aim to ensure that the term “authorised representative of the manufacturer” who is empowered act as the Applicant for the purpose of conformity assessment of serially manufactured products is used and understood in the same way throughout all EAEU member states.

On 28 April 2019, changes to the technical regulation of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) on food labelling, adopted by the EAEC Council, entered into force. 

As of 6 May 2020 manufacturers and importers of cosmetics and perfumery into the EAEU are required to comply with the revised Technical Regulation (TR) on the Safety of Cosmetics and Perfumery.

The amendments to the TR were introduced by Decision No. 32 of 29 March 2019 (published 6 May 2019).

The Decision adopted 26 July 2018 (in force as of 28 August 2018) provides criteria for determining how the type of a medical device constituent is to be identified.

As of 1 October 2018, the amendments to the EAEU Technical Regulation on the Safety of Products for Children and Adolescents entered into force.

The amendments clarified the definition of a “type sample”. The previous version of the TR required one separate type sample for each age group, even though the products were made by one manufacturer from the same materials and according to the same technical documentation.
