The challenge
The Eurasian Economic Union requires that all items be thoroughly tested and certified before they may be exported to its countries. The current certification legislation draws on the EAEU technical norms, which set the minimum requirements for products in terms of manufacturing processes, quality, reliability and technical specifications. Along with the standard declarations and conformity certifications, there are dozens of other types of product registrations and licences that are frequently difficult to obtain.
After incorporating a subsidiary in Russia, Bogner Eastern Europe began marketing its products there. It quickly ran into two significant issues:
- There are many categories of export items, each with its own set of criteria, requiring a huge amount of documentation
- Products must adhere to the EAEU technical regulations
The solution
Since August 2014, when Bogner began exporting to the EAEU countries, SCHNEIDER GROUP has aided the company in acquiring declarations of conformity and certificates for a variety of products ranging from clothes to marketing materials.
SCHNEIDER GROUP experts:
- Reviewed Bogner product types
- Formulated a list of conformity documents required for each product
- Gathered all required documents
- Applied to certification authorities as appropriate
The result
Bogner’s business in the Russian market has benefited greatly from the ability to export certified items to Russia in compliance with Eurasian Economic Union laws. Since 2014, SCHNEIDER GROUP has also provided legal advice, and accounting services to Bogner since 2013.
