A Declaration of Conformity is one of the primary documents for a product. It is the first thing state supervision authorities check during inspections. Therefore, pay attention to how to properly prepare this document 👇

NO EXPIRATION DATE
2 most common problems for manufacturers and importers
INVALID DECLARATION
Imagine issuing a declaration for one year. But just one month later, technical regulations or standards change.
For the remaining 11 months you are using a declaration that no longer complies with the requirements. This can cause problems at customs or during market inspections
UNNECESSARY ANNUAL EXPENSES
Or the opposite situation: nothing changes during the year, but you still have to pay to renew the declaration.
Is it legally required to limit the validity period of a declaration?
No. Ukrainian legislation does not require setting a fixed validity period for a declaration. However, the declaration must be updated when necessary — for example, if technical regulations, standards, or the product itself (its range or design) change.
We issue declarations without a limited validity period
