Changes in the rules for determining the localization of pharmaceutical products and medical devices for public procurement purposes are coming into force
In the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, amendments to the Rules for Determining the Country of Origin of Certain Types of Goods for Public Procurement purposes will come into force on January 22. They apply to relationships that have arisen since January 1, 2026.
The EAEU legal portal published the relevant decision of the Council of the Eurasian Economic Commission dated November 19, 2025, which corrects the Rules for certain types of pharmaceutical and medical products for public procurement.
The changes will make it possible to add products by 56 trade names to the Eurasian Register of Industrial Goods. There are 31 products, including synthetic fibers, needles, prostheses, ultrasound receivers, ultrasound scanning devices, medicines, pharmaceutical substances, based on the fulfillment of the list of production conditions and technological operations. 25 goods, including medical masks, bandages, syringes, surgical materials, hearing aids, fire extinguishers, will be brought in based on the provision of a certificate in the ST–1 form.
In addition, until the end of 2026, the validity period of Appendix No. 11 to the Rules has been extended, which contains a list of goods included in the Eurasian Register of Manufactured Goods based on the provision of a certificate in the CT-1 form. At the same time, for certain types of products, the deadline is extended only until June 30, 2026.
The Eurasian Register of Industrial Goods is maintained in order to ensure access to public procurement in the EAEU countries, which have established preferences, restrictions and prohibitions on goods from other member States and third countries. To be included in the Registry, you should follow a certain algorithm.
