There will be more goods that must meet national standards. Their lists were introduced by Government Decree No. 2425 of December 23, 2021, which was published on December 30. It will come into force from September 2022, and for new product groups – from September 2023 and will be valid until September 2028.
Rosstandart explained that manufacturers and sellers of products have time to prepare to meet additional requirements, while certification bodies and testing laboratories have time to expand the scope of accreditation.
