EAC / EAEU Market Access
EAC certification for export to the EAEU
EAC Declaration for Felt and Nonwoven Materials
For Felt and Nonwoven Materials, intended user, age group where relevant, material composition, direct body contact, functional purpose and labeling are central classification factors. Within light industry, product type, fibre or leather composition, layer structure, body contact, age group and protective claims define the route. The exact model range, intended use, technical limits and differences between variants must be recorded before a firm route is stated. We cross-check the product description with TR CU 017/2011 and TN VED 5602, 5603, using the customs code as supporting evidence rather than as the only legal basis.

Regulatory route
EAC conformity route
Adult consumer products in the stated scope follow an EAC Declaration of Conformity under TR CU 017/2011, Article 11. Select the scheme for the identified product group and serial production or batch. Only consumer felt and nonwoven materials within TR CU 017/2011 are covered here. Technical textiles, medical materials and PPE inputs need separate scope assessment; identify the intended finished application and composition before selecting Article 11 schemes.

Preliminary registry statistics
Registry statistics are not available yet. Numerical data will appear only after a reproducible registry sample has been extracted.
This scope concerns ordinary adult consumer products. Children's and adolescent products, medical products, PPE, departmental special clothing and technical textiles require separate classification. Used products and individual custom orders are excluded by Article 1.
What is usually required for this product?
Apply Article 11 as amended by Decision No. 75 of 12 September 2025, effective 26 April 2026. Prepare a product and material matrix, construction specifications, representative test evidence, fibre-composition labels, care instructions and manufacturer details. Match the evidence to all supplied variants and the selected scheme.

Cost and timeframe
Final cost and duration depend on the applicable regulation, conformity scheme, testing scope, technical documentation, sample requirements and project configuration.
- •Material groups, colours and skin-contact test scope
- •Model differences and representative evidence selection
- •Materials and product variants
- •Age/user group and intended use
- •Testing scope for safety properties
- •Size/model range and labeling variants
Documents usually requested
For an initial assessment, manufacturers should normally be ready to provide:
- Material/composition and size-range matrix
- Model-variant and worst-case characteristic matrix
- Material specification
- Model/size/age range
- Labeling and packaging artwork
- Safety or performance test reports if available
- Product datasheet and complete model list
- Manufacturer and production-site details
- Proposed HS / TN VED classification (5602, 5603)

More than a document-issuance service
We can manage the certification cycle from preparation for testing through final issuance, including development or adaptation of most of the technical documentation required for conformity assessment.
Typical EAC conformity assessment process
Group products by material and contact level before selecting tests and label wording. For Felt and Nonwoven Materials, the review should also isolate the worst-case model characteristics. The review first fixes the intended user and product purpose, then checks materials, safety properties, labeling and family grouping.

Frequently asked questions
What is the most useful first step for this product?
Send a complete datasheet and model matrix so the technical boundary can be fixed before regulatory conclusions are made.
Does the intended user affect certification?
Yes. Children's, protective or body-contact products can have different requirements from ordinary consumer goods.
Can several sizes or models be grouped?
Often yes, when materials, design and safety characteristics are technically equivalent and the evidence covers the full range.
Which EAC regulation applies to Felt and Nonwoven Materials?
Adult consumer products in the stated scope follow an EAC Declaration of Conformity under TR CU 017/2011, Article 11. Select the scheme for the identified product group and serial production or batch. Only consumer felt and nonwoven materials within TR CU 017/2011 are covered here. Technical textiles, medical materials and PPE inputs need separate scope assessment; identify the intended finished application and composition before selecting Article 11 schemes.
Does the HS / TN VED code alone determine the route?
No. Customs classification is an important input, but the technical product description and the wording of the regulatory lists must be checked together.
