Brief on Russian standardisation system

In Russia several types of technical standards are used: national standards (GOST R), interstate standards (GOST) and other standards (OST, TU, etc.).

The national and interstate standards have designations GOST R or GOST plus a numeric designator, consisting of a serial number and a year the standard becomes effective. GOST is an acronym for "GOsudarstvennyi STandart", which means "state standard."

At present, the collection of GOST standards includes over 40,000 titles used extensively in conformity assessment activities in 12 countries (Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, etc.).
