About GOST-R

GOST-R is a technical document that allows enterprises to sell their products in Russia more easily if they meet Russian safety and quality standards. To put it another way, GOST-R is a certification mark that recognizes items that have been produced under Russian safety requirements.

When exporting products to Russia, obtaining GOST-R Certification is a time and cost-effective solution to clear customs. It expands your company’s sales and earnings by providing new business opportunities. Client confidence in your products is further boosted by GOST-R certification. GOST-R certification is required for more than 70% of all products marketed and used in Russia, according to Russian federal legislation.
