K. Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de The CE marking (also known as CE mark) is a mandatory conformity mark on many products placed on the single market in the European Economic Area (EEA). The CE marking certifies that a product has met EU consumer safety, health or environmental requirements. CE marking is a "passport" enabling a product to be legally placed on the market in any Member State. However, this does not necessarily mean that the product will be suitable for all end uses in all Member States.

K. Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de Affixing of the CE marking The CE marking must be affixed by the manufacturer, or by the authorised representative established within the Community.

K. Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de Declaration of Conformity To permit the use of a CE mark on a product, proof that the item meets the relevant requirements must be documented. Sometimes this is achieved using an external test house which evaluates the product and its documentation. Often it is achieved by a company-internal self-certification process. In any case the responsible organization (manufacturer, representative, importer) has to issue a EC-Declaration of Conformity (EC-DoC) indicating its identity (location, etc.), the list of European Directives it is declaring compliance with, a list of standards the product complies with, and a legally binding signature on behalf of the organization. The EC-DoC underlines the sole responsibility of the manufacturer. When parts of the certification process for the CE marking are performed by 3rd party test houses or certification bodies then it is mandatory that the CE symbol also includes a number identifying the 'Notified Body'.

K. Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de New Approach Directives are Based on the Following Principles: Harmonisation is limited to essential requirements. Only products fulfilling the essential requirements may be placed on the market and put into service. Harmonised standards, the reference numbers of which have been published in the Official Journal and which have been transposed into national standards, are presumed to conform to the corresponding essential requirements. Application of harmonised standards or other technical specifications remains voluntary, and manufacturers are free to choose any technical solution that provides compliance with the essential requirements. Manufacturers may choose between different conformity assessment procedures provided for in the applicable directive.

Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de Mutual Recognition Products legally manufactured or marketed in one country should in principle move freely throughout the Community, where such products meet equivalent levels of protection to those imposed by the Member State of exportation and where they are marketed in the territory of the exporting country. Barriers to trade, which result from differences between national legislations, may only be accepted, if national measures: are necessary to satisfy mandatory requirements (such as health, safety, consumer protection and environmental protection).

K. Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de Principles of Market Surveillance Market surveillance is an essential tool for the enforcement of New Approach directives. The purpose of market surveillance is to ensure that the provisions of applicable directives are complied with across the Community. It helps to eliminate unfair competition. Member States must nominate or establish authorities to be responsible for market surveillance. Notified bodies should, basically, be excluded from the responsibility of market surveillance activities to avoid conflicts of interests. National surveillance authorities shall monitor the market. They shall take action up to use safegard clause of directive. Not in force now but will come in near future!

K. Endrullat – Berlin – June 2009 - KEN@DIBt.de Mis-use or Fake of CE Marks or Rumor about confusing CE marks Some products are said to have a CE mark that stands for China Export, which is not confirming to European specifications. The two letters are close together, not spaced as in the European conformance mark. However, the "China Export" mark doesn't exist. Some products may be conforming but not displaying the logotype correctly and others may illegally put the correct mark on a non-conforming item.
