Expert opinion of the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology. Full register of sanitary and epidemiological conclusions of Rospotrebnadzor

Expert opinion issued by the FBUZ Hygiene Center in Moscow

Expert opinion issued by the FBUZ Center for Hygiene in the Vladimir Region

Expert opinion issued by FMBA

Expert opinion on products- a form of a document certifying the safety for humans and the quality of the product in terms of microbiological, physico-chemical, toxicological, organoleptic, radiological and other indicators (depending on the type of product).

An expert opinion is issued only after laboratory testing of products for compliance with the unified sanitary-epidemiological and hygienic requirements for goods subject to sanitary-epidemiological supervision (control) on the territory of the EurAsEC. There is no single sample form for an expert opinion, therefore, each country sets its own requirements for these forms, and each territorial sanitary and epidemiological supervision authority can develop its own form.

The list of goods for which an expert opinion can be obtained, with a view to their successful and quick sale to consumers, is specified in Appendix No. 1 to the decision of the Commission of the Customs Union No. 299 dated May 28, 2010 (Section I List of goods subject to sanitary and epidemiological supervision (control) ).

It should be noted that before the adoption of the new rules of the Customs Union in the Russian Federation, there was such a document as a FEZ (sanitary and epidemiological conclusion), which was issued for most types of products sold in the country. However, since 2010, this document has been abolished, and expert opinions have been issued instead.

Why should you get an expert opinion?

Despite the fact that according to the legislative acts of the Customs Union an expert opinion is not mandatory, in the business environment such a document is considered very significant. This is primarily due to the fact that many large wholesalers and owners of retail chains and stores prefer to request an official document from suppliers that guarantees the safety of products. This will allow in any disputable situations with consumers to confirm the safety of products.

Many manufacturers receive these conclusions for more successful promotion of the product on the market, increasing the competitiveness of products and consumer confidence in them. Also, participation in tenders of various levels often requires an expert opinion as a condition for participation in the tender (often for construction products, polymer products). The presence of an EZ characterizes the integrity of the manufacturer; an electronic copy of the document can be posted on the company's website for review by potential buyers.

Where can I get an expert opinion on products?

Expert opinions are issued by sanitary and epidemiological supervision bodies in the EurAsEC countries. As a rule, these are territorial bodies and hygiene centers that have all the necessary resources to conduct a comprehensive and objective study of product indicators. Such studies are carried out by qualified employees in specially equipped laboratories, which allows us to guarantee the quality of the expert assessment of the product under study. To obtain an expert opinion, you can contact our expert center, where our specialists will offer you design options, select a laboratory for research.

To date, the expert's opinion on the quality and safety of products has the most beneficial effect on the development of business in our country and throughout the EurAsEC. If you want to develop your business and strive to move to a new level of cooperation with suppliers and large customers, contact our company for the preparation of the relevant certification documentation, which will be provided to you in a timely and convenient way.

Rospotrebnadzor in Russia carries out its activities in accordance with Federal Law No. 52-FZ of March 30, 1999 and the Regulation approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 322 of June 30, 2014. The duties of the federal service include the development and adoption of sanitary and epidemiological rules and regulations , preparation and maintenance of the register of sanitary and epidemiological conclusions of Rospotrebnadzor. Open activity allows any citizen or organization to receive information on the official website about the audit and the conclusion prepared based on its results.

General information about the official website of the FBUZ FTSGiE Rospotrebnadzor

FBUZ "Federal Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology" is a division of Rospotrebnadzor and performs a number of functions aimed at carrying out public works and providing services to private organizations for laboratory research, external quality control, various kinds of sanitary and epidemiological examinations and others.

You can get acquainted with the activities of the organization and the procedure for obtaining services on the official website of the FBUZ FTsGIE Rospotrebnadzor, located at www.fcgie.ru. The Center conducts a wide range of sanitary and epidemiological examinations, as a result of which a conclusion is issued, including on compliance or non-compliance with established norms and standards of quality and safety for humans.

As part of the sanitary and epidemiological study of technical documentation, the examination is carried out:

• for enterprises and their groups depending on the hazard class (1-5). Projects to substantiate the size of the SPZ (sanitary protection zones), including those with an assessment of the risk to public health, are subject to verification;
• in relation to projects containing MPE standards for polluting the atmosphere;
• regarding materials for determining the final size of the SPZ for enterprises from hazard class 1 to 5, including those with a health risk assessment.

Sanitary and epidemiological examination of products is carried out on the basis of the manufacturer's application. Based on the results of the check for compliance of products with established quality standards, the manufacturer can issue a certificate of state registration of the product. The following product groups are subject to mandatory verification:

• food, including dietary supplements for food, specialized products and intended for baby food;
• non-food, including perfumes and cosmetics, as well as products subject to mandatory state registration in accordance with the law.

The cost of conducting such an examination in private varies from 5,430 to 47,775 rubles, including VAT, depending on the type and complexity of the product.

Commercial organizations can apply to the center for sanitary and epidemiological examinations aimed at checking:

• draft technical documentation related to food products (TU, TI, etc.) for compliance with quality standards and regulations;
• technical documentation related to the establishment of expiration dates for a specific product.

The center's experts evaluate the results of laboratory studies and tests, including the rationale for the use of expiration dates. The average cost of conducting commercial expertise is 8,000 rubles including VAT.

The equipment and the staff of the center make it possible to carry out hygienic and other types of assessments, including those aimed at analyzing the impact of the environment on public health, as well as assessing potential risks to the health of citizens.

It should be noted that services to citizens and organizations are provided within the framework of the One Window program. This is convenient, since all applications and technical documentation are sent to a single contact information, regardless of the type of expertise required. Subsequently, the received documents are sent to specialists in a particular field (Photo 5).

How and when products are checked for quality by Rospotrebnadzor

In order to fulfill the functions assigned to Rospotrebnadzor to control the sanitary and epidemiological situation in the country and protect consumer rights, inspections are carried out on an ongoing basis at enterprises and commercial organizations.

Inspection is carried out on a scheduled and unscheduled basis. An unscheduled examination to check products for quality by Rospotrebnadzor can be appointed in cases stipulated by law:

• at the request of the chief state sanitary doctor, his deputies;
• by definition issued in accordance with the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation within the framework of an administrative offense;
• upon personal appeal of citizens and organizations with an application for an examination.

Conducting an examination for state needs, in particular, when supervising the sanitary and epidemiological state, licensing activities, as well as monitoring the social and hygienic situation in the country, is carried out free of charge. Examinations on personal applications of citizens and organizations are carried out on a contractual basis, the rate for each type of examination is fixed and posted in open sources, including on the website of Rospotrebnadzor and its representative offices in the regions.

Based on the results of the inspection, a conclusion is prepared on the conformity or non-compliance of the product with quality standards and an appropriate certificate is issued. Information about the results of the examination is entered into the Register of Sanitary and Epidemiological Conclusions of Rospotrebnadzor, located on the organization's website at rospotrebnadzor.ru/deyatelnost/informatics.

• product name;
• the organization that manufactures or receives the product, or the official name of the country;
• hygienic characteristics of the studied products;
• conclusion number;
• typographic number of the form.

The found result of the inspection of a specific product contains information about the characteristics of the product and its compliance with all sanitary and epidemiological standards. The system allows you to view the full content of the conclusion, to do this, click on the link in the actions "Show as a form". The register of sanitary and epidemiological conclusions of Rospotrebnadzor, located on the official website, is general and accumulates the results of inspections in all regions of Russia.

Types of disinfectants permitted by Rospotrebnadzor

Control and supervision of the use of disinfectants, especially in social institutions, such as hospitals, kindergartens and schools, is one of the main activities of Rospotrebnadzor. This is due to the assigned function of establishing the causes and conditions for the emergence and spread of infectious diseases, as well as ensuring protection from the harmful effects on human life and health of the environment.

The list of disinfectants approved by Rospotrebnadzor for use is formulated in Letter No. 0100/626-06-32 dated January 25, 2006 and is divided into 2 groups: domestic and foreign. All funds are classified depending on the composition into 4 categories:

• chlorine-containing;
• oxygen-containing;
• containing cationic surfactants and other compounds;
• guanidine-containing.

We offer you a service for the preparation of an expert opinion of Rospotrebnadzor. Our experts will organize a quick sampling, prepare an application and the necessary package of documents. Within the time limits established by law, you will receive the conclusion of the Moscow FBUZ "Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology", or the territorial FBUZ of Rospotrebnadzor.

Expert opinion of Rospotrebnadzor in the system of sanitary and epidemiological safety

The key subjects of economic activity - the manufacturer and the consumer - are interested in reliable guarantees of the sanitary and epidemiological safety of products. The position of manufacturers is explained by the desire to confirm the advantages of their products, as well as to protect their business from the use of low-quality, harmful and dangerous materials. The interest of consumers is based on the obvious desire to maintain health and a favorable environment around them.

To a large extent, a certificate of state registration of products (SGR) serves as a guarantee of compliance with sanitary and hygienic requirements. The presence of such a document satisfies all parties, but here a problem arises - it cannot be obtained for any product. SGR can be issued only for goods subject to mandatory state registration. At the same time, it should be noted that the list of such goods is constantly decreasing due to the general policy of reducing administrative barriers for business.

​

​

​

​

​

In general, situations with the need to confirm the safety of products with a sanitary epidemic can be varied. Such confirmation may be needed to participate in tenders, public procurement, confirmation of compliance with uniform sanitary, epidemiological and hygienic requirements may be needed in the process of customs clearance of goods, if the customs authorities have doubts about this.

The specified problem of missing guarantees of sanitary and epidemiological safety is solved with the help of an expert opinion of Rospotrebnadzor.

​

What is needed to obtain an expert opinion from Rospotrebnadzor

To issue an expert opinion of Rospotrebnadzor, first of all, it is necessary to conduct a sanitary and epidemiological examination of products. The examination is carried out by the Federal Budgetary Healthcare Institutions (FBUZ), which are part of the structure of Rospotrebnadzor, as well as accredited laboratories.

If the fact of compliance with the unified sanitary-epidemiological and hygienic requirements is established in the process of product research, then you can proceed to the execution of an expert opinion of the FBUZ. To do this, you need to create a package of documents and submit an application to the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiologists or a similar territorial division of Rospotrebnadzor.

A package of documents is formed depending on where the products are manufactured (in the EAEU or in another country), all innovations, instructions and changes in customs legislation should also be taken into account. In case of import, a duly certified translation is required.

​

RK-Consult service is the optimal solution

By ordering the Rospotrebnadzor Expert Conclusion service, you choose the shortest and most direct way to confirm the sanitary and epidemiological safety of products. In this case, you are insured against mistakes, save time and get results quickly.

Designing a sanitary protection zone (SPZ) is only half the battle. To legalize the project, you need to go through the approval procedure, which includes 3 stages. The first two are related to the coordination of the calculated sanitary protection zone, carried out using mathematical methods and specialized programs. At the third stage, the final sanitary protection zone is established based on the results of monitoring the actual pollution produced. Thus, we have an algorithm of actions:

1. Coordination of the SPZ project in the federal budgetary healthcare institution (FBUZ) “Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology” in the subject of the Russian Federation (for example, in St. Petersburg or the Leningrad Region).
2. If the outcome of the previous stage is positive, the sanitary and epidemiological expertise is submitted for approval to Rospotrebnadzor for the federal district to which the applicant company belongs.
3. The third stage is the approval of the report on confirmation of the sufficiency of the SPZ size again at the FBUZ and Rospotrebnadzor in the federal district of the company's registration.

Approval of the SPZ is a laborious procedure and requires certain legal preparation. Let's consider each stage in more detail.

Coordination of the SPZ project in the FBUZ “Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology”

FBUZ “Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology” is a state institution reporting to Rospotrebnadzor. It is within his competence to carry out sanitary and epidemiological expertise your company's project.

Based on the results of the examination, the customer is issued expert opinion on the compliance (or non-compliance) of the submitted documentation with a number of hygienic standards, in particular, the required quality of ambient air and indoor air. After receiving the expert opinion, it is transferred to Rospotrebnadzor for further approval of the project.

FBUZ is located in every subject of the country. In St. Petersburg located at the following address: st. Malaya Sadovaya, 1; in the Leningrad region- at the address: st. Olminsky 27. Several branches are located in regional centers: Boxitogorsk, Kingisepp, Vyborg and others (FBUZ publishes more detailed information, including the work schedule, on the official website).

To obtain a sanitary and epidemiological expertise, a company must generate and submit the following package of documents:

• an application for an examination, filled out according to the model and including information about the details of your company (legal address, current account, bank, TIN, KPP), about the purposes of the examination, about the list of attached documents;
• initial permit documentation (urban planning and cadastral plans of the land plot, lease agreement (or certificate of ownership));
• situational plan (on a scale of 1 to 2000), master plan (on a scale of 1 to 500) with the obligatory presentation for both cases of the boundaries of the land plot of present and future nearby buildings;
• a volume of the draft justification of the size of the sanitary protection zone, containing: key information about the facility, the rationale for the location of the sanitary zone as a protection against hazardous effects extended to the external environment, cartographic data, a list of environmental measures, a plan of field studies necessary to confirm the sufficiency of the calculated SPZ.

Price
Legislatively (Order of Rospotrebnadzor dated July 19, 2007 N 224 (as amended on July 22, 2016), the following price list is determined.

The complexity group is a determining factor in the cost of the service and is established by specialists of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation by expert means. Approval of the sanitary zone in FBUZ takes about 30 calendar days.

Rice. Expert opinion on the results of the examination of the project justification of the SPZ

What to pay attention to

If discrepancies with the sanitary legislation and / or the required MPC / MPD indicators are identified in the proposed project of the sanitary protection zone, the customer is issued conclusion on the non-compliance of the project accepted sanitary and epidemiological standards.

Submission of an incomplete or incorrectly executed package of documents (diverging from the regulatory framework) entitles the FBUZ to legally refuse to accept and process documentation.

Attention. After eliminating the comments, it is necessary to go through the approval procedure at the FBUZ again.

FBUZ legally refuses to provide public services if the data about the customer does not match the data contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities or the EGRIP or in the absence of materials about the subjects in the above sources.

In the absence of complaints from the FBUZ, the customer firm, upon completion of the examination, receives expert opinion on compliance existing sanitary rules and regulations.

Approval of the SPZ project in Rospotrebnadzor

For further approval of the documentation, the company is sent to the Office of Rospotrebnadzor for the federal district where it is registered. Location Office for St. Petersburg: st. Stremyannaya, 19; according to LO: st. Olminsky 27. Purpose - get a sanitary and epidemiological conclusion on the compliance of project documentation with sanitary and epidemiological rules and regulations, namely:

1. conditions for the design and operation of the sanitary protection zone;
2. ambient air standards;
3. noise pollution standards.

The applicant sends the following documents:

1. Application for the issuance of a sanitary and epidemiological conclusion, filled out in accordance with the form and including information about the customer of the project (official name, address of registration of a legal entity / individual entrepreneur, TIN, OGRN), about the project developer, a list of attached documents;
2. Data from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities or EGRIP confirming the registration of the customer in the Russian Federation, in addition to data from the Federal Tax Service required for consideration by the Federal Tax Service and other participants involved in the provision of the service;
3. Expert opinion obtained as a result of a study carried out by FBUZ;
4. Companies of hazard categories I and II (with the exception of livestock, poultry farms and cemeteries) also assess the potential risk to the health of exposed people through calculations.

Please note that the project volume is no longer required at this stage of approval.

Options for submitting a package of documents:

1. Personal appearance at the local Rospotrebnadzor on the set days and hours of admission.
2. Postage indicating the value of the letter and an inventory (listing and designation of cost) of the attached documentation.
3. An electronic appeal implemented through the portal "Public Services".
4. Through local centers for the provision of state and municipal services.

When submitting a set of documents, their presence in full, correct execution, content, and reliability are always checked.

How is the agreement

1. Registration of the application and attached documentation (performed on the day of submission);

Attention. Immediately after submitting the application, the customer is given the opportunity to monitor the progress of the consideration in any form convenient for him (both remotely and when contacting the territorial Rospotrebnadzor).
2. Sending requests and notifications by Rospotrebnadzor to the authorities involved in the provision of services (FTS, other subordinate authorities of Rospotrebnadzor).
3. Analysis of the expert opinion on the SPZ project issued by the FBUZ. For enterprises of categories I and II, the results of assessing the probability of occurrence of harm to the state of public health are additionally studied.
4. Making a decision on issuing a sanitary-epidemiological conclusion to the customer.
5. Entering the conclusion into the general register of sanitary and epidemiological conclusions.

Price
The state service for issuing a sanitary and epidemiological conclusion for a project is provided free of charge.

According to the regulation on the issuance of sanitary and epidemiological conclusions, adopted by the Order of Rospotrebnadzor dated July 18, 2012 N 775, the approval of the SPZ in this instance takes about 30 calendar days in case of a personal appearance and about 20 calendar days in the case of an electronic request, of which:

• no more than 5 working days - reconciliation of customer data with the data of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities / EGRIP;
• no more than 10 working days - verification of compliance with these hygienic standards of design calculations of the negative impact of chemical, biological, physical factors on nature and humanity; analysis of the results of assessing the risk of damage to the health of citizens;
• no more than 7 (for electronic placement of documents - within 5) working days - administrative formalities (drawing up an official sanitary and epidemiological report on a standard form).

As a next step, the conclusion is submitted for approval to the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the Russian Federation (for production facilities and facilities of categories I and II), or to the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation (for other companies). The approved conclusion is returned to Rospotrebnadzor, where the holograms are pasted and sealed with the official seal. Upon readiness of the conclusion, the customer is notified via the preferred communication channel. So, according to the results of the first two stages of coordination, the company has sanitary and epidemiological conclusion for the project of its calculated sanitary protection zone. If the request for the service was made via the Internet, a digital copy of the conclusion(original available upon request).

Rice. Sanitary and epidemiological conclusion on compliance with requirements
in the project of substantiation of the size of the SPZ to sanitary rules and standards

When submitting documentation that is not complete or not drawn up in accordance with applicable law, Rospotrebnadzor legally refuses to accept them. Lack of an entry about the customer company in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities / EGRIP, as well as the unreliability of any information contained in the documentation, are legitimate grounds for denial of public services.

Approval of the report on confirmation of the sufficiency of the SPZ

A year after receiving the sanitary and epidemiological conclusion, the third stage of approval takes place - assessment of the adequacy of the theoretical boundaries of the sanitary protection zone by monitoring factors that have a destructive effect on the environment.

The monitoring schedule is drawn up by an ecologist of the developer organization, implemented by a third-party accredited laboratory throughout the year, seasonally. Measurements are made at the border of the estimated SPZ.

The monitoring results are documented in the protocol of observations and entered into the project. Further, according to the protocol, the project development company writes a report confirming the satisfaction or insufficiency of the initially established value of the protective zone. The report and additional documents confirming the implementation of environmental measures (if such measures were provided for by the project) are again sent to the territorial Rospotrebnadzor, where, after 30 calendar days, the final sanitary protection zone is established. In some cases, Rospotrebnadzor asks to first "drive" the report through the FBUZ. Then, after receiving an expert opinion, the document is sent to Rospotrebnadzor, which finally issues an opinion.

Price
Coordination in FBUZ is paid (see the price list above); approval of the report in Rospotrebnadzor is provided free of charge.

The coordination of the SPZ ends with the choice of a variant (calculated or actual) of the sanitary protection zone, which to a greater extent guarantees the protection of nature and society.

What you should pay attention to

Your sanitary protection zone, as well as the documents received upon approval, remain valid until:

• the field of activity of your company and, as a result, the category of danger does not change;
• does not change the size of the production capacity and / or technological processes, and with it the amount of hazardous substances produced;
• the composition of the used fuel, raw materials, and hence the composition and amount of emissions does not change.

It is necessary to reissue the sanitary and epidemiological conclusion when reorganizing, changing the name, changing the actual address, or an error found in a previously issued conclusion.
