Expert opinion is voluntary-compulsory
As the Law "On the Protection of Consumers' Rights" says, products intended for sale in retail trade must have a certificate of compliance with the requirements of Rospotrebnadzor. But, according to the same law, obtaining an expert opinion is a purely voluntary matter, and receive it in special centers. Why is this procedure necessary, is it necessary to conduct it, or can we do without it?
Expert conclusion can be obtained in research laboratories of Rospotrebnadzor, where they will make an analysis for compliance with sanitary and epidemiological requirements. This is very important for meat and dairy products, food for young children. For enterprises, a certificate is required in order to participate in tenders for the supply of products to budget organizations.
In order for an entrepreneur to obtain an expert opinion, it is necessary to submit to the certification center the relevant application for the voluntary certification of the goods. Attach to him a document on the registration of a legal entity, product sample, technical justification (if it is an imported product, then a certificate from the relevant foreign authorities). Further the businessman pays a receipt for services of the expert and after a certain time receives the certificate of conformity. This document is issued on a letterhead with several degrees of protection. It will indicate all the necessary information about the product. The certificate is an official and very important document. The original is kept by the manufacturer or seller, the buyer has the right to request a copy.
