New Fire Safety TR CU 043/2017 will come into force in 2020
New Technical regulation of the Customs Union TR CU 043/2017 “On requirements for fire safety and extinguishing devices” shall enter into force on January 1, 2020 and thereby replace the national regulations.
As for now, fire safety is subject to national regulation (for example, Fire Safety Certificate in Russia). This certificate is necessary for fire protection equipment, instance fire detectors, extinguishers, building material, special insulation material, panels and flooring.
New TR CU 043/2017 will be valid on the whole territory of the Customs Union (Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan) and will cover fire protection equipment and extinguishing systems.
Certificates and declarations of conformity with TR CU 043/2017 will be issued for single shipment or serial production. The maximum validity of both documents will be 5 years.
Just as other TR CUs, this regulation will also require an Applicant that is a legal entity registered in the territory of the Customs Union. Our company offers Local Representative Service to provide foreign producers with the necessary support.
There will be special requirements for EAC certified products regarding EAC marking.
The transition period when both National and EAC certificates are valid is usually 2 years. However, we already recommend obtaining a Fire safety certificate with validity of not more than 3 year.
