What is CE certification?
CE certification is limited to the basic safety requirements of products that do not endanger the safety of human beings, animals and goods, rather than the general quality requirements. The coordination directive only stipulates the main requirements, and the general directive requirements are the standard tasks. Therefore, the accurate meaning is that the CE mark is a safety conformity mark rather than a quality conformity mark. It is the "main requirement" that constitutes the core of the European Directive.
The "CE" mark is a safety certification mark, which is regarded as a passport for manufacturers to open and enter the European market. CE stands for European Unification.
The "CE" mark is a compulsory certification mark in the EU market. No matter the products produced by enterprises within the EU or by other countries, if they want to circulate freely in the EU market, they must be affixed with the "CE" mark to show that the products comply with the basic requirements of the EU Directive "New Methods for Technical Coordination and Standardization". This is a mandatory requirement of EU laws for products.

CE certification issuing authority
(a) The Declaration of Conformity/Declaration of Compliance independently issued by the enterprise is a self-declaration and should not be issued by a third party agency (intermediary or test certification agency). Therefore, it can be replaced by the enterprise's Declaration of Conformity in the EU format.
(b) Certificate of Compliance/Certificate of Compliance, which is a declaration of compliance issued by a third party testing agency (such as Deputic Testing), must be accompanied by technical data such as test report TCF, and the enterprise must also sign the Declaration of Compliance.
(c) EC Attestation of Conformity Certificate of EU Standards, which is issued by the Notified Body (NB). According to EU regulations, only NB is qualified to issue EC Type CE declaration.
CE certification mode
Generally speaking, the CE certification mode can be divided into the following 9 basic modes: Module A: internal production control
Module Aa: interference of a Notified Body
Mode Aa: internal production control, plus third-party detection Module B: EC type-examination
Mode B: EC type test communication product CE certification
Module D: production quality assurance
Module E: product quality assurance
Module F: product verification
Module G: unit verification
Module H: full quality assurance
Mode H: TQA is based on different combinations of the above basic modes, and may derive several other different modes. Generally speaking, not any model can be applied to all products. In other words, manufacturers are not allowed to choose any of the above modes to carry out CE certification for their products.
The self-declaration mode or the product directive of the European Union that must pass the third party testing agency with lower risk level allows manufacturers of products with lower risk level in certain categories to choose to carry out CE certification in the mode A: "internal production control (self-declaration)". Products with high risk level must be involved by the third party certification agency NB (Notified Body). For products with high risk level, the manufacturer must select other modes other than mode A, or mode A plus other modes to achieve CE certification. In other words, the third party testing agency NB (Notified Body) must be involved.

e . Product technical conditions (or enterprise standards).
f . Product electrical schematic diagram.
g . Product circuit diagram.
h . List of key components or raw materials.
i . Testing Report.
j . Relevant certificates issued by EU authorized certification body NB (for other modes other than mode A).
k . The registration certificate of the product in the EU (for some products, such as Class I medical devices and ordinary IVD in vitro diagnostic medical devices).
l . CE Declaration of Conformity (DOC).

Necessity of applying for CE certification
CE certification provides a uniform technical specification for the trade of products of all countries in the European market, and simplifies the trade process. To enter the EU and the European Free Trade Area, products from any country must undergo CE certification and be affixed with CE marks. Therefore, CE certification is the pass for products to enter the markets of the European Union and European Free Trade Area countries.
CE certification indicates that the product has met the safety requirements specified in the EU Directive; It is a commitment of enterprises to consumers, which increases consumers' trust in products; Products with the CE mark will reduce the risk of sales in the European market. These risks include:
The risk of being detained and investigated by the customs;
Risks investigated and dealt with by market supervision institutions;
The risk of being accused by peers for competitive purposes.
Benefits of applying for CE certification
1. The laws, regulations and harmonized standards of the European Union are not only numerous, but also very complex in content. Therefore, it is a wise move to obtain the help of the EU's designated institutions, which can save time, effort and reduce risks;
2. Obtaining the CE certification issued by the EU designated agency can maximize the trust of consumers and market surveillance agencies;
3. Be able to effectively prevent the occurrence of irresponsible allegations;
4. In case of litigation, the CE certification certificate of the EU designated agency will become the technical evidence with legal effect.
