EU product compliance starts with identifying which rules apply to the product and the role your business has in the supply chain. CE marking is required only where applicable EU legislation provides for it. It is not a general quality seal or an official EU approval. Several requirements can apply to the same product, including obligations outside CE legislation.
How we support this
We assess the intended use, product configuration and target markets, identify the applicable requirements and organise the evidence and corrective actions into one project.
A supplier document titled CE Certificate is not, on its own, proof of complete conformity.
General information only. Applicability depends on the product, intended use, economic-operator role, destination market and relevant dates. A guide does not replace a product-specific assessment.
