Sales of merchandise without quality certificates will be blocked.

When the documents expire, sales will stop; for example, products will not be able to go through the checkout. So far, the merchant cannot promptly remove merchandise with problematic permits from circulation: they are generally issued by lot, Izvestia reported.

Retail chains check permit documents before the start of sales. Buyers can also request these documents from stores. This can be verified through the TsRPT system – “Honest Signal”, automatically uploads quality certificates for labeled products.

However, during sales, the networks cannot track what happens to the documents. Also, certificates are issued for shipments of goods, but there is actually no information on each unit of goods. Therefore, it is not clear which specific goods to stop selling and retire.

In this regard, CRPT with Rosaccreditation plans to create a GTIN for goods – this is an international marking and accounting code. It is indicated next to the barcode on the package. The list of such codes will be linked to specific certificates. This will automatically prevent the sale of goods with invalid permits.

• In 2021, the CRPT launched the Chestny ZNAK.Business app for small and medium-sized businesses. You will save up to 25 thousand rubles on the purchase of a handheld scanner and a data collection terminal. The mobile app also integrates a chat bot with elements of artificial intelligence, which reduces the time it takes for a company to respond when contacting CRPT technical support for typical questions.
