As an importer you bring products to the EU market. The CRA sets clear requirements for your verification duty. We help you comply efficiently.
Importers are the link between non-EU manufacturers and the European market. The CRA makes importers co-responsible for the compliance of the products they introduce. You cannot place non-compliant products on the EU market without becoming liable yourself.
You must verify that the manufacturer has carried out the correct conformity assessment before you import the product.
Verify that the product correctly bears CE marking and that the associated EU declaration of conformity is available.
Retain technical documentation and the EU declaration of conformity for at least 10 years after placing the product on the market.
Upon discovering a non-compliant product you must take immediate action and inform the competent authorities.
Your name, trade name and contact details must be indicated on the product or its packaging.
You are required to cooperate with market surveillance authorities in investigations into possible non-conformity.
We provide practical guidance so you can be confident that the products you import fully comply with all CRA requirements.
