Adopted Technical Regulation for Simple High Pressure Vessels
The Regulation sets out technical and safety requirements for simple high pressure vessels placed on the Ukrainian market. The Regulation has been developed based on the EU Directive 2014/29/EC on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of simple pressure vessels.
The adopted Technical Regulation (TR) sets out minimum safety requirements for the safety of amusement rides and for their design, manufacture, installation (assembly) service, operation, transportation and utilization. The TR enters into force as of 18 April 2018 (no transitional or grace period is set for this TR).
As of 17 January 2017 the amendments to the legislation regulating state supervision of providers of goods and services enter into force. These amendments apply only to consumer complaints about infringement of their consumer rights.
The Ministry of Finance has proposed draft law that would require certain products (the exact lists of these products are to be adopted at a later stage) with special identification and tracking marks (RFID).
The declared aims of this requirement are to protect the consumer from counterfeit and illegally imported or manufactured products and to unify the procedure of product tracking.

Rosprirodnadzor (the Russian environmental authority), has approved, by Order of 11/24/2016 №756, a number of measures to be performed in order to create the Common Environmental Polluters Register.
