Start with the product and the sales channel
Send a product description, model list, country of manufacture and planned sales channel. A first shipment through an importer, repeat sales through distributors and selling on a Russian marketplace can call for different paperwork and responsibilities.
Certification, testing and regulatory support
We check the relevant technical regulations, the conformity route and who can apply. Then we scope the technical file, sample shipment and work with bodies accredited for the applicable products and methods. See the compliance services, accreditation checks and representative options.
Customs clearance and logistics
We help coordinate the conformity file with shipment paperwork. Before booking freight, compare the product description, model numbers, origin and proposed customs code across the invoice, packing list and technical documents. The logistics provider and broker can then confirm the practical route and what they need for clearance.
Localisation and technology programmes
If you plan to assemble or manufacture in Russia, we can assess what would be needed to apply for entry in the Russian industrial products register. Technology companies can also discuss Skolkovo eligibility with the relevant group team. Both routes depend on the business and its evidence.
Russian technical documentation
Start with the original manuals, drawings, specifications and label files. We can scope Russian-language manuals, product passports or other documents and align product names and model numbers across the technical file and artwork.
Selling on Ozon or Wildberries
Share the planned category, seller arrangement and an example listing. We help identify which documents relate to the product itself and which checks belong to the marketplace listing, labelling or marking workflow.
Visas and work permits
If staff will travel to Russia or take up work there, tell us the purpose, dates and planned activities. We can direct the question to the group’s mobility specialists to assess the applicable route.
Personal data and Roskomnadzor
If your Russian website, shop or local team will collect personal data, include that in your launch plan. The group can help scope a review of data flows, notices and any applicable filing requirements.
What you get from the first review
We identify what needs a specialist assessment, what evidence you already hold and which work can be quoted. Use the free market-entry check or see published price examples.
Choose a starting point for your project
If your first question is customs classification, start with the HS code and applicability review. For a document you already hold, use the EAC register check. For marketplace sales, start with the Ozon and Wildberries evidence checklist. If the work spans more than one area, see the market-entry package and full service catalogue.
