Who this service is for
Manufacturers, suppliers, importers, operating organizations and non-residents applying in relation to technologies for hazardous production facilities or hazardous technical devices.
When it is required
Article 74(6) provides that other market participants do not need to obtain an applicable permit again where one has already been issued. A permit is not required for assemblies, parts, instruments, components and spare parts incorporated into hazardous technical devices, or for hazardous technical devices that have undergone conformity assessment in the form of certification. A declaration of conformity must not be treated as equivalent to the expressly specified certification without review. We check the subject, model and document scope.
What to prepare
- Description of the technology or device, intended use and location, manufacturer and model range.
- Equipment technical passport, operating manual, drawings and technical characteristics.
- Certificates and declarations of conformity, existing permits and test reports.
- Applicant details, non-resident documents and translations required by the current government service checklist.
How we work
- Check whether the subject qualifies as a hazardous technical device or technology for a hazardous production facility, and review exemptions and existing permits.
- Where applicable, define the exact scope of the expert assessment.
- An independent authorized organization conducts the assessment and issues its opinion.
- Prepare the electronic application and supporting package under the current rules; the applicant signs with an electronic digital signature.
- Support the review and deliver the permit or the government authority's reasoned decision.
What you receive
An initial conclusion on applicability. Where the procedure is required, an expert opinion and the outcome of the government service. A refusal is not presented as a permit.
What to keep in mind
The government service is free and its statutory processing period is 3 working days. Expert assessment and document preparation are charged separately and require additional time. We check the current procedure and permit applicability before submission.
Price and timing
Price and timing depend on the number of items, available documentation and the need for calculations, site visits and testing. After an initial review, we agree on the scope, cost and schedule. Free government services are distinguished from preparation and support charges.
Questions about this service
Are an expert opinion and a Permit to Use the same document?
No. The opinion is the result of an expert assessment. Where required, a Permit to Use is issued by a government authority through a separate procedure.
Is a Permit to Use required if there is a certificate of conformity?
Article 74(6) exempts hazardous technical devices that have undergone conformity assessment in the form of certification specified by the law. The certificate must cover the particular device and intended use. A declaration must not be treated as equivalent to a certificate without review.
Can a permit obtained by another supplier be used?
Under Article 74, a permit applies to all market participants and does not need to be obtained again. First, the manufacturer, type, model and permit scope must be checked against the device being supplied.
