EAC / EAEU Market Access
EAC certification for export to the EAEU
EAC Conformity for Industrial Robots
Provide payload, reach, application, end effector and cell boundaries; assess safeguarded space, teaching mode, unexpected motion and integration with other equipment. Define the complete-machine boundary, intended industry and independently supplied modules. Assess the line and modules without treating a component as a complete machine. Check electrical, EMC, pressure, gas and explosion-protection scopes according to the design and intended use.

What is usually required for this product?
Prepare the machine layout, model and configuration matrix, safety justification with risk assessment, operating and maintenance documents, control and safety-function description, identification label and applicable test evidence. Identify the complete line boundary and any independently supplied modules. Provide payload, reach, application, end effector and cell boundaries; assess safeguarded space, teaching mode, unexpected motion and integration with other equipment.
Which conformity route applies?
The assessment identifies the machine type and hazards first, then checks the relevant list position, safety evidence and conformity route. Classify the complete supplied machine by its actual technological function and applicable TR CU 010/2011 Annex 3 entry. The declaration list contains, among others, chemical, polymer-processing, metalworking, construction-material and industrial food equipment; certification entries apply to specifically listed lifting, agricultural and mining machinery. A broad product name does not establish one universal form.
Applicable technical regulations
Define the complete-machine boundary, intended industry and independently supplied modules. Assess the line and modules without treating a component as a complete machine. Check electrical, EMC, pressure, gas and explosion-protection scopes according to the design and intended use.
Verified conformity information
Decision No. 36 of 13 March 2026 mainly took effect on 1 September 2026; its replacement of Annex 3 takes effect on 1 April 2028. Use the presently applicable product list and check country-specific implementation and existing-document transition provisions for the project.
Cost and timeframe
Final cost and duration depend on the applicable regulation, conformity scheme, testing scope, technical documentation, sample requirements and project configuration.
- •Machine type and hazard profile
- •Number of models and configurations
- •Safety-function and testing scope
- •Quality of risk assessment and technical documentation
Documents usually requested
For an initial assessment, manufacturers should normally be ready to provide:
- Machine layout and principal drawings
- Safety/risk assessment
- Operating manual and maintenance instructions
- Drive, control and safety-system description
- Product datasheet and complete model list
- Manufacturer and production-site details
- Proposed HS / TN VED classification (8479)
EACSERT project support
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.
Related EACSERT experience
Large CO₂ production line certification project
A multi-stage industrial certification project lasting about two years and covering a large list of equipment within a CO₂ production line.
A large equipment scope required coordinated conformity assessment, technical documentation and work across multiple certification tasks rather than a single standard document.
Typical EAC conformity assessment process
The assessment identifies the machine type and hazards first, then checks the relevant list position, safety evidence and conformity route.
- 01
Identify the product and intended use
- 02
Check HS / TN VED and applicable EAEU regulations
- 03
Determine the required conformity route
- 04
Prepare technical and commercial documentation
- 05
Arrange samples, testing or production assessment where required
- 06
Issue/register the conformity document and confirm EAC marking

Frequently asked questions
Why does the exact machine function matter?
Similar HS headings can contain machinery with different legal routes; function and listed product description must match.
Is a risk assessment normally important?
Yes. For machinery it is a core document for identifying hazards and demonstrating how safety measures are implemented.
Which EAC regulation applies to Industrial Robots?
Classify the complete supplied machine by its actual technological function and applicable TR CU 010/2011 Annex 3 entry. The declaration list contains, among others, chemical, polymer-processing, metalworking, construction-material and industrial food equipment; certification entries apply to specifically listed lifting, agricultural and mining machinery. A broad product name does not establish one universal form.
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.
