Trade of electrical goods also affected by the war

The ongoing war in Ukraine with resulting sanctions on Russia and Belarus has major consequences. In addition to the colossal damages on affected humans locally, it does amongst other affect trade, both locally and globally. Trade of electrical and electronic products is by no means an exception.

Nemko has long standing cooperation with partner certification bodies in both Ukraine, Russia and Belarus, as well as with bodies in other countries in that region. The Ukraine certification body UkrTest is closed at this time and cannot provide certification services. Nemko has a backup solution with a different Ukrainian partner who will be able to provide Certificates and Declarations of Conformity with the governing Technical Regulations for electrical safety, EMC, RoHS, and eco-design (as applicable).

For the certification bodies in Russia and Belarus, it is not possible to pay any invoices and it is impossible/difficult to send test samples.
So for manufacturers/exporters to obtain EAC certification to get market access for their electrical/electronic products to the EAEU-region, Nemko can assist with this through our partner certification body in Armenia.

For further information and/or for assistance with market access to various countries, please contact Lars.Hjerpseth@nemko.com
