CE
[French Communauté européenne: European Community] A marking applied to certain products, such as toys and machinery, to indicate that they have complied with certain EU directives that apply to them, including electromagnetic compatibility. A CE marking is not a quality mark, but it indicates compliance with health and safety and other legislation. The manufacturer or first importer into the EU must apply the CE marking; fines can be levied for breach of the rules. There are complex post-Brexit provisions for the UK: in place of the CE a UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) mark is applied to goods placed on the market in Great Britain (England, Wales, and Scotland). This covers most goods that previously required the CE marking. Northern Ireland retains the CE mark. |
