We see capital letters CE on many products in free movement in the European Economic Area. This marking, meaning Conformity with Europe, demonstrate that the products have been audited/assessed in terms of minimum safety, health and environmental requirements.
You would see CE marking on a new telephone, food processor, TV set or crayons purchased in the European Community. CE marking also indicates fair competition among manufacturers as it enforces accountability and conformity with the same requirements.
CE marking is also found on products sold outside the EEA that are manufactured in, or designed to be sold in the EEA. This makes the CE marking recognizable worldwide even to people who are not familiar with the European Economic Area.
CE marking is described as a trade passport because it enables the free movement of products within the European market.
According to EU legislation, the EU Member States are not allowed to restrict the placing on the market of CE marked products, unless such measures can be justified on the basis of evidence of the non-compliance of the product. CE marking does not indicate that a product was made in the European Union. The CE mark also is not a quality mark. The CE marking is the manufacturer's declaration that the product meets the requirements of the applicable EC directives.
