Certification of jackets and coats

Jackets and coats, like all clothing categories, must be certified. The certification obligation applies to products that are produced and sold in the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union.

Clothing is divided into three layers:

– First – underwear, nightgowns and others;

– second – jackets, trousers and other things that are worn under outerwear;

– third – all kinds of outerwear.

Accordingly, jackets and coats are the third layer, but submission for various documentation is provided here.

Jackets that are made in children’s sizes under the age of three are certified with a special quality certificate in accordance with the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union 007/2011 “On the safety of products intended for children and adolescents”.

For use by children over 3 and under 18 years of age, jackets and coats are certified according to the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union 007/2011 “On the safety of products intended for children and adolescents”.

Certification of jackets or coats made in sizes for adults is issued by a declaration according to the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union 017/2011 “On the safety of light industry products”.

What is a declaration or certificate for jackets and coats?

Declaration of Conformity is documentary evidence that the quality of clothing fully meets the requirements prescribed in the relevant Technical Regulations. The declaration is certified by the applicant himself, and he is responsible for the information specified in the document.
