Economy Ministry: Armenian producers must now provide certificates of  origin to sell on Wildberries

ArmInfo. Armenian manufacturers will henceforth require a certificate of country of origin to sell their products on the Wildberries e-commerce platform, according to a statement from the press service of the Ministry of  Economy of Armenia.

"In response to recent frequently asked questions and comments, we  would like to inform you that products manufactured in Armenia  (including those from the EAEU) and sold via the Wildberries  e-commerce platform now require a certificate of origin. This can be  obtained by applying to the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the  Republic of Armenia (https://armcci.am)," the Ministry's statement  reads.  The Ministry emphasized that for products manufactured in  Armenia (including EAEU member states) that are subject to mandatory  certification, a Certificate of Conformity and a Declaration of  Quality are also required.  To obtain these documents, producers may  contact the relevant certification bodies:   https://armnab.am/CertificationBodyList.  .

"For other products: a certificate of origin, which can be obtained  from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Republic of Armenia,  or any other document confirming the origin of the product, including  an invoice, photographs, instructions for use, product description,  or other supporting documents confirming that the product was  manufactured in Armenia or in EAEU member countries," the statement  continued. It is also noted that a customs declaration is required  for products manufactured outside the EAEU.

"If you have any questions regarding documents, you can contact the  Wildberries technical support center through the seller portal  (https://forms.gle/dCcZpSK1zTtgX6BV7) or leave your contact phone  number via the feedback form," stated the Armenian Ministry of  Economy, urging that the collection of necessary documents begin  early to ensure the process within the implemented system is  organized as smoothly, accurately, and without delays as possible.

It should be noted that on May 1, 2026, it was reported that Russian  online marketplaces Wildberries and Ozon suspended sales of goods  from Armenian sellers being shipped to Russia. It was later revealed  that this was due to changes in customs requirements and the  necessity to provide additional documents. Several experts quickly  accused Russia of attempting to exert economic pressure on Armenia  due to its shift toward the West.
