QC + Honest Sign (KIZ)

Producing in Uzbekistan — selling on Wildberries in Russia or other marketplaces?

We inspect your batch and apply Honest Sign (KIZ) marking before it leaves Tashkent.

You found a factory, agreed on production, received your batch — and shipped it straight to Wildberries warehouses in Russia. Logical at first glance. But this is exactly where most sellers lose money: defects the factory missed reach the customer and come back to the seller as fines, bad reviews and a downgraded product card.

The cost of getting it wrong

What happens if you don't inspect the batch before shipment

Real losses from defects in the batch

Wildberries fines are fixed penalties that fall on the seller regardless of the product's cost.

Defective-goods logistics costs

Returns, disposal or re-shipment mean lost time and money you will never recover.

Negative customer reviews

Bad ratings → a downgraded product card and falling sales: the marketplace algorithm pushes it further down in search.

Time for re-production and re-delivery

If you only discover the defects in Russia, that's 4–8 weeks of lost sales before a new batch is back on the shelf.

Bottom line

The cost of a single missed defect can drag down sales for the entire batch.

What SellerLab does

Two steps before shipping to Russia

1

Step 1. QC — independent quality control

Your batch arrives at our facility straight from production — before packaging and shipment. We inspect every unit, or a representative sample, against your specification: seams, hardware, prints, completeness, conformance to the approved sample. This is not the factory's internal check — it's an independent party working in your interests.

Defective units are separated and returned for rework. You receive only conforming goods, ready for the next stage.

Step 2. Applying Honest Sign (KIZ) marking

To sell textiles on Wildberries in Russia, Honest Sign (KIZ) marking is mandatory — a KIZ code on every unit. Without it, the shipment will be blocked at customs or returned from the WB warehouse.

We apply the KIZ markings at our warehouse in Tashkent immediately before shipment. You generate the codes in the Honest Sign system in advance and hand them to us — we apply them to each unit, verify scannability and assemble shipping cartons for delivery to the warehouses.

Key facts about Honest Sign (KIZ) when exporting from Uzbekistan

You issue the codes

KIZ codes are issued through the Russian Honest Sign system. As the seller, you generate them yourself via the operator's personal account.

We apply your codes

We apply the codes you provide to every unit and verify scannability with a barcode scanner.

Categories subject to mandatory marking

Clothing, underwear, outerwear, socks, gloves, shawls, scarves — please verify the current list based on your product's HS code.

Marking applied in Tashkent

Marking is done at our Tashkent warehouse, so goods are ready to ship immediately with any carrier.

From our practice

From our practice: 18% defects before shipment

A seller from Russia was producing women's apparel at a factory in Tashkent. The factory provided its own internal QC and stood behind the quality. During an independent SellerLab inspection, defects were found in 18% of the batch: misaligned seams, prints that did not match the approved sample and zipper issues in 30% of the items.

The batch was returned for rework. After re-inspection, KIZ markings were applied and the batch shipped to Russia. Sales launched without any fines and with strong customer ratings.

Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to obtain the Honest Sign (KIZ) codes myself?
+
Yes. KIZ codes are issued through the Russian CRPT system — as the seller, you generate them via your personal account with the marking operator. We receive the prepared codes and apply them to the products.
Do all textile categories require marking?
+
No, not all of them. Please check the current list on the official Honest Sign website.
Can QC and KIZ marking be combined in a single visit?
+
Yes. This is the standard scenario: the batch arrives, passes QC, and conforming units are immediately marked with KIZ and packed into shipping cartons.
What if the factory says they will run QC themselves?
+
The factory's internal QC is the factory's control, not yours. They have a different incentive: to get the batch accepted. Independent QC means a third party inspects the goods against your criteria.
Do you work with small batches?
+
Yes. We accept batches starting from 100 units. Pricing depends on volume and inspection format — send us the batch details and we will provide a quote.
After QC, can the goods be shipped directly to FBO Wildberries in Uzbekistan?
+
Yes. After QC and KIZ marking, we can prepare the batch for delivery either to WB Russia or to Wildberries FBO/FBS in Uzbekistan — depending on your operating model.
