Until the Technical Regulations replace the GOST Standards, the latter continue to play a part in the certification process on the Russian territory.

It should also mentioned proving correspondence to Technical Conditions (TC),[clarification needed] but generally this method is used in voluntary certification.

Manufacturers may obtain the Certificate of Conformity to Technical Regulation in mandatory or voluntary form.

Such type of certification is typical for the parties of foreign products that are delivered into the Russian territory according invoice or a contract.

Certificate of Conformity to Technical Regulation is generally drawn up in the case when the import is not limited to a one-time delivery of the products.
