▍What is CE Certification?

The CE mark is a “passport” for products entering the EU countries and the EU Free Trade Association countries market. Any product (involved in the new method directive), whether produced by the EU or EU member states, must be in compliance with the requirements of the Directive and relevant harmonized standards and attach the CE mark, before being placed on the EU market in order to be freely circulated in the EU market. This is a mandatory requirement of the EU law for related products, which provides a uniform minimum technical standard for trade of products in the European market and simplifies the trade process.

2014/30/EU: Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC Directive), batteries complying with this directive must have a CE mark;
