Certification Introduction:

The "CE" mark is a safety certification mark and is regarded as a passport for manufacturers to open and enter the European market. CE stands for CONFORMITE EUROPEENNE. In the EU market, the "CE" mark is a compulsory certification mark. Whether it is a product produced by an enterprise within the EU or a product produced in other countries, if it is to be freely circulated in the EU market, the "CE" mark must be affixed to indicate that the product Comply with the basic requirements of the EU Directive on New Approaches to Technical Harmonization and Standardization. This is a mandatory requirement for products under EU law. 

BACL, as the EU CE NB notification issuing agency, the agency code is 1313, can provide testing and certification services for your radio and television equipment, information technology equipment, radio equipment, telecommunication equipment, engineering and medical equipment and other products and issue certification certificates, so that your Products comply with EU directives LVD, EMCD, RED, RoHS, MDR, MD, etc., and quickly enter the EU market for sales.

Those without the CE mark shall not be sold on the market. Products that have been affixed with the CE mark and entered the market shall be ordered to be withdrawn from the market if they are found to fail to meet the safety requirements. Those who continue to violate the CE mark regulations of the directive will be restricted or prohibited from entering the EU market or forced to withdraw from the market.

CE Compulsory Certification and CE Self-Declaration Instructions

Most products can be affixed with the CE mark if the manufacturer adopts a self-conformity declaration method; some products with relatively higher risks need to be assessed by a third-party agency authorized by the EU, that is, a Notified Body. Only then can the CE mark be affixed.

Applicable Area:

CE certification can be found in 33 special economic zones in Europe, including: EU 27, 4 countries in the European Free Trade Zone, and the United Kingdom and Turkey. Products with CE marking can circulate freely in the European Economic Area (EEA).

Note 1: EFTA includes four member states of Switzerland (Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Liechtenstein), but CE marking is not mandatory in Switzerland;

Note 2: Because of the colonial era, CE certification is widely used and has high global recognition. In Africa, Southeast Asia, and some countries in Central Asia, CE certification may also be accepted.

Note 3: As of November 2019, Brexit is in progress, and the follow-up results are to be determined.
