Ukraine: Proposed revised format for certification body identification

On 27 July 2017 the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine (Department of Technical Regulation) published draft Decree that would amend Decree No. 1184 on the format of the national conformity mark.

The amendments would clarify in which format the relevant conformity assessment body number is to be indicated next to the national conformity sign of Ukraine. 

The national conformity mark placed on a product must be accompanied by the identification number of the designated conformity assessment body if this body was involved at the stage of product manufacturer control.

The format in which the number must be indicated would be either UA.TR.YYY or alternatively - the shortened format - YYY, where:

  • UA is the commonly used abbreviation of Ukraine in Latin letters;
  • TR is abbreviation used to indicate the conformity assessment body authorised to carry out work conformity assessment to the applicable Technical Regulation requirements; and
  • YYY is the identification number of the specific conformity assessment body.

Law: Draft amendment to Decree No. 1184 of 30 December 2015 on the Description and Application Rules of the National Conformity Mark
