Only safe, flawless, and quality goods should be available on the European market – at least, that’s the objective of the CE mark. The mark proves that the product in question conforms to EU health and safety standards, whether it's toys or construction machines. Your CE declaration of conformity means your product now has right of way onto the European market.   How to Obtain? For most products the CE marking is essentially based on the manufacturer’s own declaration of conformity with the relevant directives.   In the case of some high risk products, like medical products, the involvement of a Notified Body is required. This may also be the case when European product standards are not used.   There are a number of directives that requires CE marking of the products, e.g.   Low Voltage Directive (LVD) – covering electrical safety EMC Directive – covering Electromagnetic Compatibility RED Directive – covering radio and telecom products (wireless products) Medical Device Directive RoHS Directive – covering hazardous substances in products ErP Directive – covering energy efficiency.
