Affected by the British to take off the European, the European Union recently issued a circular, from March 30, 2019, all notified body in the United Kingdom will not CE certification, all of England's products manufacturers and certification bodies are free circulation of EU policy will no longer apply.

1. The backdrop:

 The backdrop is that Britain's decision to leave the European Union will further shock the entire European Union, and the aftershocks will not weaken any further.

2. Time nodes:

Announcement time: January 10, 2018.

Execution time: March 30, 2019.

3. Content:

All public announcements in the UK will not be able to carry out CE certification, and all UK product manufacturers and certification bodies will no longer apply the EU's free circulation policy.

This is understandable, but the key point to grasp is the following three points.

Q: Is the certification still valid before CE?

A: The certification before CE is still valid, but the certification is also limited by time, and the time is naturally invalid.

Q: What about the products during the transitional CE certification?

A: Please pay close attention that many UK announcements will be registered similar company in other EU countries.

Q: Will the British government introduce new product requirements?

A: British leave the Europe and gradually replacing CE certification of its own certification will soon be issued.

Corresponding suggestion

1. In the UK market, there is a second option for other EU markets, particularly with the certification bodies they are looking for.

2. Only doing the approval in the British market, and keep close eyes of the requirements in the British local market.

3. Keeping close eyes on whether the British can use the CE certificates that obtained by other EU market.

4. Communicate with the public announcement entity and customers to make sure the information comes first.
