You are about to launch your own food business? It’s a splendid idea which unfortunately entails a number of difficultes. Even with a perfect business strategy and a sufficient sum of money an entrepreneur should be ready to face certain red-tape problems related to issuing certification documents.
First and foremost, a company is expected to choose a facility which would meet all EAC sanitary and epidomiological requirements.
What comes next, it’s necessary to obtain documents on (A) equipment and (B) operations carried out with the help of this equipment. Requirements to both types of documents are laid down in the existing federal regulations: Technical Regulations, GOSTs, international standards of quality and safety that have legal force within EAEU.
Finally, a company might need to issue a number of certain documents: Technical Specifications, GOSTs and STO-standards.
Certification procedure step-by-step:
First of all, it’s vital to know that certificates are issued and registered on the basis of test reports by officially accredited certification bodies. Test reports, in turn, are made up as a result of laboratory tests. For laboratory testing there is a need to provide documents describing how equipment was manufactured, Technical specifications or in some cases – STO standards.
It’s worth highlighting that GOST requirements cover a variety of equipment. However, sometimes it makes sense to issue Technical specifications instead of following existing GOST standards. In any case, it’d be a good idea to enlist certification expert advice before you choose one document or another. Fortunately, our experts at Open Cert can provide you with detailed information concerning each document.
