CE Mark

October 5, 2023 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

UK Indefinitely Extends Recognition of CE Mark

Note: Further details and clarification on this blog post were published on December 5, 2023. View the updates here.

Companies may use either CE Mark or UKCA Mark for products sold in the United Kingdom

On August 1, the United Kingdom announced the indefinite recognition of the CE Mark beyond the previous 2024 deadline for transitioning to the UK Conformity Assessed (UKCA) mark.

The UK Department for Business and Trade (DBT) announced the decision as part of a wider package of “smarter regulations designed to ease business burdens and help grow the economy by cutting barriers and red tape.”

Businesses placing products on the UK market will now be able to continue the use of CE marking indefinitely, and have the choice to use either the CE Mark or the UKCA Mark to sell products in the UK. Previously, businesses were to fully transition to the UKCA product marking requirements by December 2024.

 

These updates apply to the 18 regulations that fall under the UK DBT. These are:

  • toys
  • pyrotechnics
  • recreational craft and personal watercraft
  • simple pressure vessels
  • electromagnetic compatibility
  • non-automatic weighing instruments
  • measuring instruments
  • measuring container bottles
  • lifts
  • equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX)
  • radio equipment
  • pressure equipment
  • personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • gas appliances
  • machinery
  • equipment for use outdoors
  • aerosols
  • low voltage electrical equipment
