The Eurasian Economic Union (Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan) applies common technical regulations (TR CU / TR EAEU). Regulated products – such as household appliances, power adapters, machinery, pumps, lighting, toys, cosmetics, food and auto parts – need an EAC certificate or declaration of conformity issued to an applicant registered in a member state, after which the EAC mark is valid across the Union.
