Working with product labeling since 2017

Turnkey product marking

For shipments from China and Türkiye, and for goods already in your possession. We handle marking and labeling so you do not have to work everything out yourself.

We agree on the scope of work, cost and timing after reviewing the product and documents.

Three situations

Where are your goods now?

The shipment’s location helps determine the procedure.

01 / China

Marking goods from China

Before the batch is shipped, we discuss the required marking, where it should be applied and how to coordinate it with the supply route.

To start: product description, quantity, supplier and shipment status.

About supplies from China
02 / Türkiye

Marking goods from Türkiye

We clarify product and packaging requirements, supplier details and the stage at which labeling is needed.

To start: product range, item codes, quantity and product readiness.

03 / Goods in your possession

Labeling as a standalone service

We can help with goods already in your possession. The feasibility and process are determined by the category, documents and current batch status.

To start: where the goods are, which documents are available and what labeling work has already been done.

Prepare your information

For goods already imported, we first check whether the required operations are permissible. Labeling feasibility depends on the specific situation.

Start by defining the task

EAC, Chestny ZNAK and labels: what does your product need?

Several requirements may apply to one shipment. Start with the product category and the available documents.

01

EAC conformity mark

The EAC mark indicates that the product has undergone the required conformity assessment under EAEU technical regulations. There must be a valid basis for applying it; the mark itself does not replace a certificate or declaration of conformity.

02

Chestny ZNAK and Data Matrix

Digital marking applies to product groups covered by mandatory requirements. A Data Matrix code links to information in the traceability system. Applying the code and submitting information to the system are separate steps.

03

Product labels

Product information, manufacturer details and other mandatory information depend on the category. A marketplace label serves that platform’s needs and does not replace mandatory marking.

Shipping package marks: carton identifiers and carriers’ customer codes serve logistics needs. They do not replace EAC, Chestny ZNAK codes or product label information.

Check the requirements: EAC rules on the EEC website (Russian PDF); Data Matrix in the Chestny ZNAK knowledge base (Russian).

For imported goods, determine the code application location and customs stage in advance. Permitted operations depend on the rules for the product group. Where imported goods can be marked (Russian)

Workflow

From your needs
to a marking plan

Turnkey means an agreed scope of work. Before starting, we determine which operations are needed and who is responsible for them.

  1. 01

    Understanding the product

    We clarify the category, quantity, location and marking purpose, and review the information and documents already available.

  2. 02

    Agreeing on the scope of work

    We determine the required operations, where they will take place, the participants and the information to prepare.

  3. 03

    Confirming terms

    After reviewing the initial details, we agree on the cost, timeline and procedure for transferring goods or information.

  4. 04

    Organizing labeling

    We carry out the agreed tasks. The deliverables and how they will be checked are agreed before work begins.

Before the first conversation

What is needed for an estimate

If some details are not yet available, start with a description of the product and its location. We will clarify the rest together.

Discuss marking

Agree with the specialist on how to send documents.

Product
Name, intended use, composition, model or item code, link or photo. EAEU commodity code (TN VED), if known.
Batch
Number of units, product range, packaging type.
Location
China, Türkiye or goods already with you; the current supply stage.
Task
Required marking, work already completed and available conformity documents. For Chestny ZNAK, tell us whether product cards and marking codes exist.

Questions before starting

Questions about marking imported goods

Can I order labeling only, without shipping?

Yes, we consider marking as a standalone service for goods already with the client. First, we review the category, documents and feasibility of the required operations.

Do you label goods from China and Türkiye?

Yes. We arrange labeling based on the product and route. Terms and the work location are agreed for each shipment.

How does EAC differ from Chestny ZNAK?

EAC concerns compliance with technical regulations; Chestny ZNAK concerns digital traceability for specified product groups. If both requirements apply to a product, both must be met. Neither mark replaces the other.

Is Data Matrix an ordinary QR code?

No. They are different two-dimensional code formats. Chestny ZNAK uses Data Matrix with a defined data structure; an arbitrary QR code containing the product name is not a substitute.

When should codes be applied to imports from China and Türkiye?

For goods subject to mandatory digital marking and imported from outside the EAEU, codes are applied before the goods are placed under release for domestic consumption or re-import procedures. Possible locations include an overseas factory, an overseas logistics warehouse or a customs warehouse in Russia. The exact procedure depends on the product group and shipment status.

Can any goods already imported be labeled?

There is no universal answer. The product category, documents, shipment status and permissible sequence of operations must be checked. We confirm feasibility after this review.

How much does marking cost and how long does it take?

Cost and timing depend on the product, quantity, packaging, location and scope of work. We prepare an estimate after clarifying the initial details.
