Shoes are under TP TC 017/2012. DoC is required for shoes and test must be done in CU lab (correct me if I am not right). We want to know how to proceed if each year it will have different styles of shoes exported to CU? Can we proceed series verification without testing to each style? If yes, can you please share me the testing cost and sampling requirements? Thanks

Hello Zoe
Norms 017/2012 TR CU «On safety of light industry products» apply to products manufactured or imported into the territory of the Customs Union. Certificate/Declaration of conformity issued by the Certification body based on test reports issued by a testing laboratory accredited on the territory of the Customs Union. Certificate/Declaration is valid for the specific product (including batch release) based on specific titles, materials and manufacturing methods (e.g., method of attaching soles to shoes). If the manufacturer makes changes to the product (e.g., changed color), the document is considered valid. Otherwise, all new products must undergo a certification procedure.
Thanks your question, good day!
